RIBS

North Carolina band RIBS bring the spacey post punk noise on "Decomp in the Field," a track from their latest album "COLD RIBS."  Check it out below and grab the LP here from Three Lobed Recordings.

Wet Tuna

Vermont psychedelic band Wet Tuna, the project of Matt Valentine (the MV of psych duo MV & EE), just dropped new album "Vast" for our listening pleasure.  Joined by longtime bandmate Erika Elder (EE), the album is an often surreal psychedelic trip.  Dig on the slinky, groove-laden haze of "Rural Glam" below and get the LP here from Three Lobed Recordings.

Daniel Bachman

One more post to close out the year, and one about a record that very possibly could have made my year-end favorites list had i caught it when it came out a month and a half ago.  Virginia guitarist and musician Daniel Bachman dropped his experimental opus "When the Roses Come Again" last month on Three Lobed Recordings, and it sounds like a complete deconstruction of Americana, bits of plucked acoustic guitar, banjo, and more lost in some ethereal wind.  Dusty drone folk for the masses.  Check out "Someone Straying, Long Delaying" below and get the record here.

Mary Lattimore & Paul Sukeena

As the last two years have trudged on, like most people i've had my good days and my bad days.  Turns out it can be difficult living through a global spanning event, particularly one that's left millions dead and laid bare just how ineffective and horrible most of our systems are.  I've listened to a lot of music during this time, and every so often, i'll stumble across something that just sounds how i feel.  And today, that's "Altar of Tammy" by Mary Lattimore and Paul Sukeena.  The track is stark and desolate, somber and fragile, a simmering piece of ambient music that speaks to my soul.  I'm kind of floored right now.  Anyway, definitely give it a listen below and pre-order the upcoming "West Kensington" LP here from Three Lobed Recordings.

Body/Dilloway/Head

Since the demise of Sonic Youth, Kim Gordon has spent the last decade making haunting, noisy, often atonal music with fellow artist Bill Nace as Body/Head.  The duo have now brought a new member into the fold, former Wolf Eyes member Aaron Dilloway, with a new record landing in November, "Body/Dilloway/Head."  Check out the oozing, crumbling, alien sonics of "Goin' Down" below and order the record here from Three Lobed Recordings.
