The Lacking Permanence

This is a smooth collection of beats and grooves filled with intricate chord work and surprising vocals.

Overthinking garage rock never goes out of style, and Interpol continues to put out albums that sound just like Interpol.

Diverse mix of influences, from synth pop to hip hop to plain old indie rock.

Smart guitar pop never goes out of style, and sharp lyrics make it all the better.

Dark and bombastic, this is full of dragged-out ballads and dramatic pauses for moody rainy evenings

This is the HALLOWEEN 2018 mixtape, seventeen carefully curated bits and pieces of spine-tingling scary and thematic. Yes, there was some Ministry. And some Throbbing Gristle, and others

A good show, with plenty of lively commentary from the listeners over the internets. Hat tip to Generoso and Lily, listening somewhere on the East Coast, for reminding me of the rare provenance of the Fishbone track, and for Robin for sticking it out into the wee hours in Atlanta.

Sparse and haunting, this minimal acoustic approach works well with Gibson’s unique fairy vocals.

Fast and furious punk blasts that are over by the time you catch up with the hook, keeping true to the Ramones’ quarter-mile aesthetic

Great set of non-stop rocking from this one-man-band which turned into a full-blown outfit.
