The Lacking Details

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.

Very carefully constructed selection of cavernous compositions studded with a grandiose feel, fine detail, and moody lyrics.

A modern amalgam of fuzz, psychedelia, baroque pop, and over-the-top production, filled with hooks baited with earworms.

Short blasts of punk fury. Many unsafe tracks, but the rest are a lot good quick fun.

It’s a fun party with Johnson, with his deep deep voice, laconic tone, and a boogie-down attitude from the Black Keys’ Patrick Carney

Despite the name, this is understated and minimalistic, with sparse instruments and a haunting voice floating on top.

A solid effort filled with gently sparkling guitar lines and subtle hooks, this manages to sound completely retro and current at the same time.

Like chocolate-covered potato chips, this mixture of disparate ingredients sounds unlikely but sounds delicious.

Angular and glitchy while remaining melodic, this is a labyrinthine set of electronic compositions inviting attention to detail or outright zoning out.
