  • Podcast: Eight songs with Vast Robot Armies

    Been meaning to bring back this feature, a podcast where I go one on one with a musician and ask him to choose 8 songs that have influenced his or her life. I was pretty happy to do so once I managed to wrangle Vast Robot Armies’ Jason Thomson to talk about The Beatles, Supertramp, Shiner, Jawbox…

  • Review: Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin – The High Country

    It bears repeating, so here it goes: I’m a fan of this band. From their fledgling Broom to the growing pains of Pershing and Let it Sway, their curiously cool-as-soda-pop rock was always a refreshing sugary drink that could kick you a bit around, in a gentle way. Tape Club showed a rawer edge, as…

  • Podcast: A conversation with Actual Wolf

      A couple of weeks ago, we got in touch with Eric Pollard, aka Actual Wolf, as he’s released a brand new album, Itasca, and we fancied catching up with him. There were a few troublesome bits with the conversation (thanks, Telmex) but we had a great time talking about Itasca, short stories, merchandise, social…

  • Stream: Apocalipsis – Dimensión Maldita

    Mexican post-metalers Apocalipsis have been rocking our stinky socks for a while and we’re quite excited that they’ve just released a brand new album for your listening pleasure. Dimensión Maldita (that’s Cursed Dimension for ya) was recorded at Tesla Studios and it’s another fine slice of sludge, metal and math rock. It’s a fantastic combination…

  • Stream: Brontosaurus

    Brontosaurus, whom we previously recommended in our rather lovely Spanish podcast a fortnight ago, have a superb new track for your listening pleasure. ‘D minor threat’ is another slice of psychedelic terror rock (!) that Brontosaurus have in store in their upcoming album, Our Animal Ways, out June 9th. Can’t wait for this one! Brontosaurus…

  • The Lost Gem: The Sundays – Reading, Writing & Arithmetic

      Reading, Writing & Arithmetic came out in January of 1990. I wasn’t into any popular music back in those days, I mostly listened to classical music or Crí Crí (obviously) while scrambling to finish homework. I wouldn’t find about The Sundays until 1994, during what I call The Perfect Summer. A trip to Great…
