“Shoegazy shoegaze from Mexico”
Riding the psychotic Americana rails: Dino DiMuro delivers a raw, note-chasing Beefheart resurrection on Old Fart At Play, while Beatle Bones 'n Smokin' Stones and Mirror Man dress the Captain's bones in bold new clothes. I Ya Toyah reaches through the invisible wall with the haunting, charity-driven WHITE WALLS, and Unquiet Nights conjures stirring synths and fret wizardry on Last Days of Rome. Chalice Sect closes their first chapter with pulsating EBM-charged darkwave on Finis Initii, while Avery Friedman glistens on her return single ahead of her first UK/EU tour.
“A cover of the classic song by Patti Smith and Bruce Springsteen, recorded as a surprise bonus track for Stress Dolls' debut album, Queen of No.”
“'Annihilation', the closing single off of SLEEP CLUB's 'Bellows' EP is an equally gentle yet pummeling soundscape written after Hurricane Helene devastated western North Carolina.”
“Five short experimental songs in the LO FI style I haven’t done for many years, intentionally or not!”
