    Watch: FKA Twigs – “Hide” Yours Truly just hosted a music event in a small, lush location of Mexico. This included many performances from various artists and bands, including up-and-coming UK singer/songwriter FKA twigs.

    BLACKHANDPATH - "Don't Choke"

    The Needle Drop

    Richmond’s BLACKHANDPATH is properly fucked up. They identify themselves as a noise rap group, but that label does not particularly satisfy. As can be heard above with the new single “Don’t Choke,” the outfit’s “MC” has both a greater affinity for yelling and greater disregard for maintaining

    Behemoth - "Ora Pro Nubis Lucifer" & "Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel"

    The Needle Drop

    The two singles to have dropped from Polish death metal quartet Behemoth’s forthcoming concept album The Satanist sound massive and are kind of awe-inspiring. The first, “Ora Pro Nubis Lucifer,” is a straight-up death metal frenzy, whereas the second, “Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel,” is a slower-paced, multi-phased piece complete

    Have A Nice Life - The Unnatural World

    The Needle Drop

    Have A Nice Life’s highly anticipated followup to 2008’s Deathconsciousness is a heavy, dismal set of post-punk rockers and drone-y ballads.

    Against Me! - Transgender Dysphoria Blues

    The Needle Drop

    While Against Me! might have a renewed sense of purpose in its focus on transgender topics, the band’s instrumentation hasn’t been exciting since As The Eternal Cowboy.

    Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra - Fuck Off Get Free We Pour Light On Everything

    The Needle Drop

    Thee Silver Mount Zion’s latest record is the Montreal band’s heaviest and noisiest yet, It’s not just a mess of abrasive sounds, though. There’s plenty of fantastic string arrangements and moving lyrics to be had on these tracks, too.

    Timber Timbre - "Hot Dreams"

    The Needle Drop

    The eerie Taylor Kirk-led singer-songwriter project Timber Timbre drops a steamy new single titled “Hot Dreams.” The forthcoming album it’s featured on has the same title, too. I love the slow, retro balladry going on here. It’s the perfect setting for Kirk’s voice. He’s always had
