Autopsy “Macabre Eternal” 2xLP

It’s pretty awesome that this band is still making albums. Autopsy are a certified legendary act amongst death metal fiends, and their song-craft remains first rate – death, the pure way. Stream the track “Always About To Die” over at superior music blog Brooklyn Vegan. The newest album comes out on Peaceville, and it’s expensive [...]

Kvelertak “s/t” LP

You might be hearing a lot about this album this summer, reason being that it is completely amazing. Norway’s Kvelertak take elements from many heavy music genres and put it all together in one ferociously grooving rock album. Top it off with the usual amazing cover art from John Dyer Baizley and we have the [...]

Motion Sickness of Time Travel “Luminaries & Synastry” LP

OMGV’s favorite synth sweetheart has got a new LP out on Digitalis, and if we have learned anything about this amazing project yet, it’s that you better hop on this As Soon As Possible. Rachel Evans’ cassettes and vinyl have a persistent tendency to disappear quickly. And for good reason. Hurry up and get it [...]

Expo 70 “Awakening” LP

Justin Wright is re-issuing this Sloow Tapes edition from 2009 on vinyl (and cassette, if you’d rather). We’ve gushed on this project quite a bit in these pages, and it’s not just because Justin shares a city with one of our writers. Expo 70 is at the top of his game, untouchable within this particular [...]

Ben Vida / Keith Fullerton Whitman “Aggregatepulseripper” LP

Ben Vida and KFW drop a slice apiece of digital/analogue shredding on this split from Amish Records, the third in their Required Wreckers series. The packaging is top-shelf, and the music will fry your wig. So why haven’t you clicked over yet? Buy at amishrecords.com.

Sam Goldberg “Having Had Forgot” LP

Arbor has just posted ordering details for this new LP from Sam Goldberg (as well as a repress of an OOP Outer Space LP). Those of you who have grown accustomed to to the synthetic bliss of Radio People or Mist might be a little taken back by Sam’s newest. Having Had Forgot has him [...]

Sean McCann “Open Resolve” LP

Open Resolve was first issued on cassette by Stunned Records, and like every Stunned release, it sold out almost immediately and subsequently became highly sought after. Don’t expect soothing clouds of gaseous drones here, this is Sean at his most playful –bending sound collage and synth experiments into insane, mind-warping shapes. In other words: awesome! [...]

Purling Hiss “Lounge Lizards” 12″

Mike Polizze drops another blown-out rock n’ roll stunner, this time on twelve inches of wax for Mexican Summer. Think high-flying distortion and thick, rolling grooves – a perfect soundtrack for burning rubber in the summer… except the part about not having a turntable in your Trans Am… pick it up now at mexicansummer.com.

Eagle Twin / Pombagira “split” LP

This tour-only release is now, thankfully, not tour-only – two sides of psychedelic head-bangers are now available to the masses. Limited to 500 on silver-specked black vinyl, pick up a copy in North America at shop-hellsheadbangers.com or forcefieldrecords.org.

Black Tusk “The Fallen Kingdom” 12″

Hyperrealist has pressed up The Fallen Kingdom EP from Black Tusk onto 12 inches of vinyl. Robotic Empire has got copies and is flinging them frisbee-style out the door, so if you want one on logo-matched yellow vinyl – better hurry. Everybody knows sludge metal goes best with artwork from John Dyer Baizley, and Hyperrealist [...]
