New Release Reviews ✨
Old 97's - American Primitive | Critical Consensus
Feeder - Black/Red | Critical Consensus
Pernice Brothers - Who Will You Believe
"Who Will You Believe" by the Pernice Brothers, an exploration of mortality and memory, was deeply influenced by Joe Pernice's personal losses, including the death of his cousin and friends. This introspective work melds indie rock with chamber pop, distinguished by its heartfelt lyrics and rich instrumental arrangements. The album's emotional depth is encapsulated in tracks like the choral-backed "The Purple Rain" and the reflective duet with Neko Case, "I Don't Need That Anymore." Marking a poignant entry in their discography, the album underscores Pernice's craft in weaving personal grief into compelling musical narratives
Einsturzende Neubauten - Rampen: APM Alien Pop Music
Einstürzende Neubauten's "Rampen (APM: Alien Pop Music)" stands out for its unique creation process, with lyrics improvised from projected phrases during their 2022 tour, marking a first in the band's approach to album production. This album explores the concept of alien pop music, blending experimental sounds with cryptic lyrics to craft music for parallel universes and outcasts, positioning itself as pop music for an alternate dimension. Described as both a return to roots and a step into new artistic territories, "Rampen" embodies a sophisticated noise landscape through a mix of conventional instruments and bespoke power tools. It's a reflective work on change, utopian ideas, and transience, showcasing the band's evolution while maintaining their avant-garde essence.
