Carved Into The Sun – The Earth Fell Away
It’s been a while since we had any post-rock music on our pages, so this particular release came just in time for a review on this rainy Monday. It will serve as a perfect soundtrack or, should I say, an overture for a new week, or maybe as healing music when you feel stressed by […]

Lore City – Kill Your Dreams LP (Already Dead / 1980 Records)
Here’s another treat for true admirers of gothy post-rock sound. You may remember Lore City from my previous writings about their full-lengths, such as Alchemical Task and Participation Mystique, and Under Way, their most recent 7″ release. As I wrote before, I was blown away by their creativity and musicianship, so I thought it would […]

Drowse Streams “Three Faces (Cyanoacrylate)”
On Wane into It (out this Friday on The Flenser), Kyle Bates’s songwriting and production have never been more lucid; sounds flicker as he sings with fragile intensity. The record impressionistically distills loss, distance, mystery, prescription drugs, the preservation of memory via recording, and ambient anxiety through its titular act: to Wane into It, to disappear awaiting the next moon phase, […]

Lore City – Participation Mystique LP (Lore City Music)
A few days ago, you had a chance to read a review about Alchemical Task, the third album of Lore City. This Portland-based duo never ceases to amaze with their version of post-rock music, and they’re continuously pushing the boundaries of this genre even further. After writing about Alchemical Task LP and Under Way 7″, […]

V/A – Blowtorch Records Classics Vol. 2 – This Could Work (Blowtorch Records)
Last week you had a chance to read about the first edition of the Blowtorch Records Classics, where twelve artists shared their best works for this sampler. I had a lot of fun listening and writing about it, so I decided to listen and write something about the second edition of this excellent sampler. This […]

Lore City – Under Way 7″ EP
Today, we have another exceptional release on our pages. If you followed us regularly, you probably noticed we’re knee-deep into post-punk music, so when this release arrived at our headquarters, we spun it on our turntable for weeks. However, the sound of Lore City is far from plain, old, simplistic post-punk, repetitiously explored by so […]

This time, these guys decided to expand their Cookies single with one more number carrying the name of the band. […]

Dream Unending Announce Song Of Salvation LP
Dream Unending‘s debut album Tide Turns Eternal was a marked shift in musical ambition for Derrick Vella (Tomb Mold) and Justin DeTore (Innumerable Forms, Sumerlands). While structured with a foot firmly in Death / Doom, a far loftier purpose and progressivism was its hallmark, as such distancing itself from others pursuing the style. Now returning only a […]
