Landowner – “Bow To Your Superior”
When it comes to technology-induced nihilism, Landowner’s Dan Shaw is either post-punk’s town crier or a huge hypochondriac on the matter, with both working to his benefit on the final preview from ‘Assumption’.

Glixen – “Unwind”
The whole body succumbs to a subconscious chemical reaction of desires met in the latest evolution from the next-gen shoegazers.

Nothing – “never come never morning”
The beauty in the final preview from ‘a short history of decay’ is how Nothing builds up the perfect view up only to watch it fall apart right in front of you.

Kathryn Mohr – “Property”
A glimpse of hope — or perhaps just the sight of hope tempting you from an unobtainable far and away distance — from the Bay Area droning experimentalist’s new album, ‘Carve’.

Sparkler – “Pet Hotel”
A big bang moment in the most celestial calming way from the San Diego truegaze band’s debut album, ‘Glidewinder’.

Irreversible Entanglements feat. MOTHERBOARD – “Don’t Lose Your Head”
On the early highlight from their new album, ‘Future Present Past’, the free jazz collective contain a cooler head of warning for a hotly reactionary time in a more tempered energy — though not completely tamed.
