    Like all the bleeps and bloops of WIXIW, but just wish it were more upbeat and colorful? Well, looks as though Liars will be fulfilling your wish on their new LP Mess, a title that justifies all the pics of tangled colored yarn the trio has used for promotion these

    With the flute-kissed “Trippin’,” previously mentioned Bristol rapper ThisisDA delivers what might be his most colorful track yet. Over the blissful beat, ThisisDA’s flow and sung hook sound positively ecstatic. Another reason to look forward to his debut mixtape Super Arkane, due out next month. Happy listening!

  • Scope the new single from experimental songstress Carla Bozulich (of Evangelista and Geraldine Fibbers fame). “Deeper than the Well” is taken from her upcoming fourth solo LP Boy and indicates that despite being in the fourth decade of her career, Bozulich isn’t close to losing any steam, delivering one

  • “Lawrence Liquors” is  the second single to drop from Xiu Xiu’s ninth LP Angel Guts: Red Classroom, after the stellar “Stupid in the Dark” back in November. Despite working with a limited instrumental palette of only a drum kit and analog drum machines and synths, Xiu Xiu is in

  • The new Angel Olsen track, “Hi-Five” is the definition of a “woozy rocker.” The song is driven by a nice, crunchy indie rock groove, and Olsen’s forlorn vocals sure match the looped visuals of the accompanying video – closing with a shot of Olsen apparently strewn across the confetti-covered floor
