    Tim Hecker- Ravedeath, 1972

    The Needle Drop

    Tim Hecker’s latest album is a barren wasteland of forgotten sounds. It’s music you can truly wander through. Some tracks do feel a little short of breath, sadly, but there are many more standouts here than there are duds. It’s another strong piece of material in the

    Weedeater- Jason...The Dragon

    The Needle Drop

    Weedeater’s new LP is a heavy piece of work. This album’s got a lot of rumble to it, but I’d say the sound here grinds your ear drums more than it shake’s ’em. The filthy distortion and Dave Collins’ trademark vocals make a great combo on

    Beach Fossils- What a Pleasure

    The Needle Drop

    On their latest EP, Beach Fossils are shooting for stronger songs and better production. They even bring on the help of Wild Nothing’s Jack Tatum to bring one of the tracks to life. In my opinion, it’s improved the band’s sound greatly. Is this EP for you?

    DeVotchKa- "One Hundred Other Lovers"

    The Needle Drop

    On their fifth studio album DeVotchKa goes further down the road of simplification with their sound. The songs to come off as being more immediate and catchier, but I miss the whimsical instrumentation and international flavors that used to shine a little brighter in the music. We’re touching down

    Weedeater- "Mancoon"

    The Needle Drop

    For Weedeater, being dirty and rough isn’t some facade they put on when they pick up their instruments. It’s been a sound frontman Dave Collins has chased since his days in Buzzov*en. The two-minute “Mancoon” comes off the band’s latest album, Jason…The Dragon, which is

    Meyhem Lauren & Action Bronson- "Typhoon Rap"

    The Needle Drop

    New video for the Meyhem Lauren track “Typhoon Rap.” The guy is a New York MC whose style takes me back to the 90s; and though this vid seems to have a severe lack of budget–and shirts, too–Lauren and his cohort Action Bronson don’t need a lot

    Moullinex- "Tear Club"

    The Needle Drop

    I can always count on the good people at Nialler 9 for a great tune when I need one. On my most recent visit, I saw a streamable EP from Moullinex: A dancepop project hailing from Germany. The Chocolat EP is the release to look for. It’s out now

    Six Organs Of Admittance- Asleep On The Floodplain

    The Needle Drop

    Six Organs of Admittance, a.k.a. guitarist and songwriter Ben Chasny, exists at a unique stylistic crossroads where acoustic folk and indie psych merge. After 2009’s sonically dense Luminous Night, Chasny has come back to a very comfortable, albeit creative place. Asleep On The Floodplain, his latest LP
