The Odyssey Cult

Here's some loud and fuzzy new psychedelic rock from California band The Odyssey Cult, whose name has nothing to do with Christopher Nolan's recently released cinematic adaptation nor the psychotic right wing reaction to it.  Check out the spacey and frenetic "The Yeti's Eyes" below and pre-order the forthcoming "Vol. 3" LP here from Silver Current Records.

Chelsea Wolfe

Turns out that those new tracks from Chelsea Wolfe released a couple weeks back were indeed a harbinger of things to come, as the artist has announced new album "The Dark" for next month.  Listen to the Americana-tinged folk track "Cold" below and pre-order the LP here from Loma Vista Recordings.

Daily Jam - Soulympics

Italian band Zu make a mix of prog, metal, jazz, and math rock.  Naturally they teamed with Mike Patton for track or two.  Here's a cut from the band and the man from 2009's "Carboniferous" LP.  Listen to "Soulympics" below, our Daily Jam.

Sick Gazelle

I need to go get some lunch, but first some weird post-rock from Chicago quartet Sick Gazelle.  Dig on the no wave jazz fusion sounds of "Hippies" below and grab the band's new "Veld" LP here from Vampire Blues.

Nirosta Steel

Nirosta Steel is the songwriting moniker of Steven Hall, who collaborated with cellist and composer Arthur Russell in the underground, and often queer, New York scene of the '80s.  "My Skyscraper" marks his first official long player, featuring works and re-works of material spanning over 40 years, a collection of "queer love songs, nightlife hallucinations, and post-rave comedowns."  It's a very cool mix of dubby electronica, down-tempo disco, lo-fi experiments, bedroom pop, and general weirdness.  It rules.  Check out the ode to an ex-boyfriend, "Boss Trix (Benny's Song)," below and order the LP here from Ulyssa.

Vanishing Twin

The fall brings us new music from UK kosmische psych band Vanishing Twin.  Pre-order "Archives" here from Fire Records and listen to the strange and worldly sounds of "Bring Me the Axe" below.

Carmen Villain

"Memoria," the upcoming new album from Oslo based experimental artist Carmen Villain has a picture of a bunch of snails in a glass for its album cover art.  And that seems very appropriate given the practically oozing minimalist electronic vibes of "Entre Nosotros."  Listen to the track below and pre-order the album here from Smalltown Supersound.

SPC ECO

Electronic and shoegaze-tinged duo SPC ECO, the project of Curve's Dean Garcia and daughter Rose Berlin release new music with a frequency you can set your watch to.  Their latest is new album "Phased."  Check out the dark alt-rock of album opener "Up All Night" below and download the whole thing here from the band.

Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein

Here's some new music from Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein, the guys behind the "Stranger Things" score and one half of Austin synth band S U R V I V E.  Pre-order the upcoming "Marche 22" LP here and listen to the sprawling, brooding "B4" below.

Boy Harsher

Massachusetts darkwave synth pop duo Boy Harsher have been one of our favorites around here for the last few years, and now the band has a new record heading our way in September with the forthcoming "Get Mean."  Let there be much rejoicing...and moody dancing.  Check out "Hard Beat" below and pre-order the LP here from Nude Club Records.
