Pretty damn good.
KMFDM – HELL YEAH
Biogen – Halogen Continues
Mid-tempo break beats over IDM electronics. Nina Kraviz collected some rare materials of Biogen, good that she did.
The Myrrors – Hasta La Victoria
Starts with this saxophone-infused trippy 10-minute mindbend (the Hungarian band Másfél comes to mind), followed by adding some low-fi vocals to the mix, then goes on with orbiting around the SQÜRL sound (think Only Lovers Left Alive’s soundtrack), and quits with a psychedelic rock end sequence. Quite a ride.
Terence Fixmer – Force EP
Fixmer, Ostgut Ton, techno.
Lapalux – Ruinism
Otherworldly, dreamscapes, beautiful.
Ilia Gorovitz – Turmoil / Simmering with No End
Sick heavy drum thing. Something evil crawling. Like a black and white silent film soundtrack.
Disco Inferno – In Debt
Low-fi ethereal post-punk post-rock thing. But mainly wins with the low-fi charm. Although I love this Wire review – how thorough. (Original from 1992, re-issued in 2017.)
Sólstafir – Silfur-Refur
There’s this Record Store Day vinyl special of the latest Sólstafir album with an unreleased B-side and it totally makes the whole record worth the mention. They say “Scorpion Moonrise was written in only one day, on which we also recorded the demo […] guest appearance by Hexvessel vocalist Mat “Kvohst” McNerney.” Stones, hammers, rocks.
The KVB – White Walls
Shoegazing synthwave thing.
She Past Away – Belirdi Gece
Goth music coming from Turkey. Didn’t see this coming. Atmospheric, post-punk, darkwave.
