Thanks to my extremely close relationship with each member of Tullycraft, I’ve been lucky enough to listen to their latest batch of songs on repeat for a while now. I’ve been counting the days until I get to discuss the band’s new songs with you and so I’m overjoyed to finally make a huge headline […]
Interpol’s last attempt at experimenting, their 2010 self-titled, face planted. During the recording of that record the band’s bassist Carlos Dengler left the group and the three remaining members salvaged what they could from those sessions. It’s not a terrible album, it just doesn’t hold up alongside the rest of the group’s discography. El Pintor, […]
The first Nana Grizol album I ever heard was their debut album, Love It, Love It. It was way back in 2008 and it was the perfect record at the perfect time – full of hope, amity, joy, vulnerability, and yearning. Actually, it’s still the perfect record for any time – the album’s title couldn’t […]
After putting out the underwhelming Painting With in early 2016 and paying their dues on the road in support of it, Animal Collective have been cleaning out their closets. First came Deakin’s long-awaited solo debut, Sleep Cycle, which was kicking up dust since 2009. An EP of Painting With outtakes, The Painters, dropped exactly a […]

You’d think that my favorite part of the Unlikely Friends story is that they formed in the most imaginary of ways: D. Crane (of my favorite band: BOAT) and Charles Bert (of my favorite band: Math & Physics Club) first played together at Three Imaginary Girls ice cream social (which was part of our series […]
2017 was a fairly rough year all around for many of us, mostly due to the current political situation, however, it ended up being quite a memorable year in music. This is certainly one of the primary factors that helped us get through it. For me, the year started out slow in regards to music, but […]
Out of the ashes of C’est la Mort, one of Seattle’s best 1980s underground inspired bands, Fotoform has arrived with a stellar new self-titled album. Fotoform released their eponymous debut LP earlier this year, following several years of line-up changes and appearances on a handful of compilations. The previous version of the group, C’est la Mort, issued the […]
To say that Gary Numan is undergoing a renaissance would be an understatement. Although he has always been active as an artist and has an impressively prolific catalog, Numan has primarily maintained a cult status ever since the early 1980s when he released his classic and best-known records Replicas (1979), The Pleasure Principle (1979) and […]
About a year ago, Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions quietly released their third album, Until the Hunter, another stunningly gorgeous record that somehow fell largely unnoticed. It is a mystery how such a beautiful release could have ended up between the cracks as it ranks just as highly as Sandoval’s other two solo recordings. […]
