Reviews
Pablo Bozzi, “Street Reign”
Rising italo-body producer Pablo Bozzi adds some goa sounds to his already potent mix.
Synapscape, “The Stable Mind”
Synapscape reach back to the heyday of acid techno and fuse it to their trademark rhythmic noise.
Forever Grey, “Sympathy Garden”
Forever Grey add some slightly melodic shades to their weighty darkwave palette, but the overall picture remains decidedly stygian.
The Birthday Massacre, “Fascination”
There’s a maturity to be found in the fantastical on the new LP from The Birthday Massacre.
Stabbing Westward, “Chasing Ghosts”
Stabbing Westward’s comeback LP highlights the core appeal of their emotional, industrial rock sound.
Spike Hellis, self-titled
Mutant EBM, sleek funk, and eerie minimalism combine on Spike Hellis’ impressive proper debut.
Observer: Puerta Negra
Brief thoughts on the debut EP from Peurta Negra.
Statiqbloom, “Threat”
A striking change-up from Statiqbloom carries the project’s aesthetic over to a distinctly techno-driven template.
Observer: Gorgyra
Experimental/classical project Gorgyra taps into ancient mythic and musical traditions.
The Legendary Pink Dots, “The Museum Of Human Happiness”
The Legendary Pink Dots’ new album is a stunning reminder of their depth, power, and beauty, and might be the storied band’s best record in decades.
Curses, “Incardine”
Curses maintains his control of cinematic body music while reaching out into goth and post-punk territory on his new LP.
At The Heart Of The World, “Inosculate”
Mean and grimy electro-industrial from the PNW courtesy of At The Heart Of The World.
