    Wolves In the Throne Room- "Woodland Cathedral"

    The Needle Drop

    On September 13th, black metal experimentalists Wolves In the Throne room will be dropping a new album via Southern Lord: Celestial Lineage. And to be honest, I wasn’t sure if I was gonna be looking to this one. I wasn’t a fan of the band’s output since

    New Vid From the Drums

    The Needle Drop

    A live video of the Drums playing what seems to be a track from the band’s forthcoming album, Portamento. On YouTube, it’s listed as episode one of “Visionmento.” A weird play on words, but the video is still fun. Hopefully, more episodes are on the way soon. This

    CIVIL CIVIC- "Street Trap"

    The Needle Drop

    MP3 Teasing toward their full-length debut, Civil Civic has dropped another track from it. If you’ve been into all of the fuzzy drum machine rock the duo has put out thus far, this new track, “Street Trap,” should hit the spot. With a driving bassline and shimmering guitars, the

    Danny Brown- XXX

    The Needle Drop

    Detroit rapper Danny Brown’s latest album functions in extremes. They’re not really the angry, voluminous extremes the latest Death Grips album functions on. They’re more like extremes of excess. Of course, what Danny is being excessive with is drugs, sex, misogyny, and basically anything else that one

    James Blake & Bon Iver- "Fall Creek Boys Choir"

    The Needle Drop

    Well, I just got finished with my first couple listens through this new collaborative track from James Blake and Bon Iver, “Fall Creek Boys Choir.” The YouTube channel it’s uploaded to even implies there’s a release–an album or EP, I don’t know–coming this October. Enough

    Beyond Creation- "Omnipresent Perception"

    The Needle Drop

    A surprisingly dynamic Canadian technical death metal outfit right here: Beyond Creation. The band recently dropped its debut LP on PRC Music, and it’s been getting some pretty positive reviews, and it’s not hard to figure out why. For one, it’s nice to hear stuff like this

    Apathy- "Peace Connecticut" (Prod. Da Beatminerz)

    The Needle Drop

    I’ve been living in Connecticut all my life, and I’ve always wondered about this state’s lack of pride–especially among people my age. I’ll admit that I’m not always in love with where I’m living. It would be nice to be somewhere less expensive,

    Download KUDO's Eyes Wide Shut EP

    The Needle Drop

    With some clear influences coming from guys like Flying Lotus and Amon Tobin, KUDO’s new EP is a twelve-minute series of icy, ambient beatscapes. I like that he’s always looking for a different way to morph the sound of the beat, too. He really keeps these tracks from
