Album Review: The Veins by The Veins

The Veins by The VeinsDeep, heavy, thoughtful, moody Australian shoegaze with a semi-disturbing video-art project to match. Our favorite song: Harrowing. (Reviewed on our our #27 podcast, We Fry on a Guitar with Your Mother, Son.)

EP Review: Clean Living by Hot Work

Album Review: B-Sides This It Is What It’s Not by Woy

Bsides this, it is what it is not by WoyTen interesting, listenably-weird songs, all clocking in at either 1:11 or 3:33. As with everything on this album, that timing is deliberate and also seems to point at nothing. Our favorite song: View from Mars. (Reviewed on our #26 podcast – We Are in Bed.)
