Laetitia Sadier Announces Silencio; New Album out July 24 on Drag City
LAETITIA SADIER ANNOUNCES SOPHOMORE SOLO ALBUM, SILENCIO, OUT JULY 24TH ON DRAG CITY Silencio! It’s been two years since we took The Trip with Laetita Sadier.

Born from a similar, natural need for stillness as well as agitation, Laetitia now [...]

Jack White – Blunderbuss album review
I think I have a new album to enter into my top ten favourites of all time. Blunderbuss by Jack White is quite simply an astounding album of heartache and woe.

Moonface – With Siinai: Heartbreaking Bravery album review
If Spencer Krug’s upbeat work with Sunset Rubdown is indicative of his attitude before nightfall, then it seems his joy gets lost in the dark when the moon shows its face. Most know him as an indie-rock nomad, but K rug plays musical mad scientist on Heartbreaking Bravery, his latest release as Moonface. This time around it was a collaborative effort with former tour mates (via Wolf Parade) and Helsinki natives Siinai. The amount of experimentation on Bravery cannot be [...]
