Holy Other With U
A gem of an EP, a prophecy for an entire genre, an emergence of a great producer: Holy Other.

Childish Gambino Camp
You probably know him as an actor on Community or as a writer for 30 Rock, but now Donald Glover is out to prove he's worth his salt as a rapper, too.

Future Islands On The Water
Future Islands follow up In Evening Air with the similarly titled and slightly more fully developed On The Water. Here, they build upon a solid sonic foundation with satisfying results.

The Fall Ersatz GB
The Fall continue their prolific and unique take on rock and punk and rockabilly and electro, etc. They just don't know when to stop, and we should all be grateful for that.

Luke Haines 9 1/2 Psychedelic Meditations on British Wrestling of the 1970s and Early '80s
Remember sitting down on a Saturday afternoon to watch such colourfully named, and skimpily dressed, figures as Big Daddy, Kendo Nagasaki or Giant Haystacks? Odds are, probably not, but never mind as former Auteurs/Black Box Recorder/Baader Meinhoff man Luke Haines wants to tell you all about it.

Mark McGuire Get Lost
Mark McGuire, the guitarist for Emeralds, releases another album of atmospheric guitar swirls. It's not nearly as good as his previous album, but its still incredibly gorgeous.
