    Kuhlamity- "Fuck Love" (ft. Block McCloud)

    The Needle Drop

    MP3 A hilariously bitter track from New York rapper Kuhlamity. I’m not a fan of the kid’s more punchline-oriented tracks, but this particular track felt too real not to share. With what I assume is his first mixtape, Indulgence, Kuhlamity seems to be trying a lotta different things

    Wolves In the Throne Room- Celestial Lineage

    The Needle Drop

    On some level, I consider myself a fan of Wolves In the Throne Room: the Olympia, Washington black metal outfit. If I wasn’t, I don’t think I would have followed their exploits up until this point. I don’t see myself quitting, but I wasn’t as into

    The Men- Leave Home

    The Needle Drop

    The Men’s latest album, Leave Home, has some pretty abrasive, heavy, and eye-widening production on it. This straight-to-tape recording features some great guitar distortion: and the total package is so thick and saturated, it makes this album an extremely heavy and overbearing experience. Another breath of fresh air here

    Thundercat- The Golden Age of Apocalypse

    The Needle Drop

    Out now on Brainfeeder Records, stream the new Thundercat album, the Golden Age of Apocalypse, in full via the player above. If you’re a fan of the sounds jazz fusion grew into during the late 70s and early 80s, this is an absolute must. The energy of Jaco Pastorious,

    SBTRKT- "Pharaohs" ft. Roses Gabor

    The Needle Drop

    New video from SBTRKT for the track “Pharaohs,” which features vocalist Roses Gabor. It’s not one of my favorite numbers from the album, but the LP itself is solid. Look for the LP now on Young Turks.

    Apathy- "Stop What Ya Doin" ft. Celph Titled

    The Needle Drop

    A new video from Apathy’s new album, Honkey Kong. Gave that thing a positive review recently. The video features fellow MC Celph Title, and even DJ Premiere appears to prove the production credit on this track is real. As far as the story and content goes, this video is

    Girls- Father, Son, Holy Ghost

    The Needle Drop

    I didn’t find Girls’ sophomore LP to be as instantaneous, well-produced, or fun as the California band’s debut, but there’s still a great set of tracks here–not to mention a load of ambition in the extra instrumentation. I totally respect the fact that these guys have

    Evidence- "You" (prod. DJ Premier)

    The Needle Drop

    A new video from L.A. rapper and Dilated Peoples member Evidence, which is promoting the release of his forthcoming album Cats & Dogs. It’ll be out via Rhymesayers on Sept. 27th. Looks like Slug, Raekwon, and Aesop Rock made the feature list for the album, too. DJ Primo

    Battles- "My Machines" ft. Gary Numan

    The Needle Drop

    Hell yes! A new video from one of my favorite albums of this year: Battles’ Gloss Drop. Check a glowing review of it here. Now since this particular track features none other than Gary Numan, I’m psyched that these guys were able to get him in this video. As
