    Courageous Endeavors - Prototype

    The Needle Drop

    Prototype by Courageous Endeavors Courageous Endeavors is a modern jazz quartet from Minneapolis whose members fancy themselves “the Twin Cities’ answer to the relevance of jazz in the 21st century.” I’d say with this debut album of theirs, Prototype, they live up to that.

    The Austerity Program - Beyond Calculation

    The Needle Drop

    Beyond Calculation by The Austerity Program The Austerity Program’s blend of old school indie, post-hardcore, sludge metal, and noise rock is refreshingly seamless. They’re not quite heavy enough to be metal per se, but this album’s boot-to-face attitude is can go toe-to-toe with any number of aggressive
