    The Needle Drop

    The new Colin Stetson EP, Those Who Didn’t Run, is now available for streaming on Constellation Records’ SoundCloud page. There are two ten-minute tracks on this monster, which is an exercise in attention span that not even Stetson’s last album asked listeners to endure. Not to make this

    Deerhoof- "Secret Mobilization"

    The Needle Drop

    A new video from Deerhoof for the track “Secret Mobilization,” which I remember reminded me of Steppenwolf a lot when I reviewed the band’s latest album, Deerhoof vs. Evil. I vividly remember Deerhoof winning that battle, too! Moral of the story: Never put an alien you think is dead

    The Needle Drop

    Polish musician Michal Jacaszek will be dropping a new album on Ghostly this December, and I’m really hoping this new LP–titled Glimmer–will maintain the wintery feel the track above seems to proclaim so proudly. “Dare-gale,” armed with loads of classical timbres, drones ominously in waves of sound

    La Dispute- "King Park"

    The Needle Drop

    I think the first time I ever heard of post-hardcore outfit La Dispute was in a blogTV. Someone had sent me a song to be reviewed, I played it, and a majority of reactions were pretty negative. I think mine was especially bad. It had to be at least a
