They were used on the EP flutes, saxophones, organic sounds, whispered ethereal voices And danceable drops of various types that unite glitchy electronic sounds to an underwater aesthetic which was born from Sofia's passion for aquatic fauna. “During the journey you meet different creatures, each of them…

There’s a delirium that sets in during these dog days of summer, when the heat won’t break and humidity hangs heavy on the skin, that smudges the border between reality and mirage. Sweat and sunscreen sting the eyes; any attempt to tame hair frizz or body odor is rendered futile. Stripped of creature comforts, we make allowances for the absurd and embrace the grotesque.Any River, the latest dispatch from Nashville folk rock trio Styrofoam Winos, exists in this hazy in-between: talking dogs and crying eggs, waking dreams of skating on Saturn’s rings, portmanteaus that land somewhere between wordplay and free…
In the spring, Clari Freeman-Taylor met with a friend at Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn. She spent a few pleasant hours with her and after saying goodbye she continued to wander alone through the two square kilometers of the cemetery. «I was thinking about how I would like to be buried, nothing particularly macabre. I don't want a grave, I would rather be buried directly in the earth, completely naked, under a tree, so that the tree can absorb me.”After a while she realized she was lost and her phone battery was dead. He had to return to Manhattan to play…
For almost his entire solo career Jack White has seemed engaged in a curious battle with his past. He didn't deny it, far from it, but he gave the impression of wanting to demonstrate that the White Stripes had only been a starting point. Each album moved the bar a little higher, between destructured blues, askew funk, analog electronics, sound collages, sudden psychedelic deviations and a taste for experimentation that often made listening as fascinating as it was challenging. He seemed like a musician incapable of stopping, almost terrified of the idea of repeating himself.Frozen Charlotte tells a different story:…
“Prelude in the Ash,” the first ballad off trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire and guitarist Mary Halvorson’s Slo-Mo Neon Luminate Hoverings, starts nimble and intimate: Akinmusire’s sentimental phrases could soundtrack scenes of pouring rain in a film noir. Halvorson joins with a rocky arpeggio that occasionally summons her signature glassy pitch bends, balancing Akinmusire’s assuredness with a sense of timidity. The piece is fairly straightforward, but the artists’ different tonal approaches turn the jazz ballad away from obvious readings like “sad” or “romantic” and toward ambiguous, multilayered feelings. Unstable textures are the focus of their compositions here; the soundscapes they create are…
Two years ago, Truck Violence sounded motion sick, bile lurching up their throats with an acidic burn. Violence, their debut album, felt at odds with the world and all the usual ways of navigating it, knocking together post-hardcore, noise rock, and rustic folk into an avant-garde approach to punk. Under the stewardship of co-founders singer-poet Karsyn Henderson and guitarist-banjoist Paul Lecours, the Montreal-via-Alberta quartet returns with its second full-length LP, The weathervane is my body, where lacerating guitars, forthright emotion, and a newfound tolerance of extremes allows the band to play louder without bridging such wide gaps as before.The weathervane…
Plenty of people turn to punk seeking an escape; Nick Vicario needed distance from the thing itself. As a player in West Coast bands like Crisis Man, Cower, and Public Eye, the Oregon-born musician has spent most of his life abiding by hardcore ethos both onstage and off, for better or for worse. When he relocated to Los Angeles and launched his mostly-solo project Smirk with 2021’s scuzzy, lo-fi LP, he was indulging in the reckless, destructive behaviors that tend to be more alluring in song than in practice. In a breakthrough moment he says came to him as a…
