This is a 2020 Black Editions reissue of a P.S.F records all-timer called Musica Transonic. This group/jam is a super session consisting of three of our favorite musicans: Makoto Kawabata of Acid Mothers Temple on guitar, Asahito Nanjo of High Rise on bass, and Yoshida Tatsuya […]
An intense and pointed debut from Shearling, a project by Alex Kent and Sylvie Simmons following the dissolution of the band Sprain. There’s a lot of depth to this work and the radical sincerity that clearly went into this album is something the world needs more […]
A live record documenting the truly singular sound of the greatest noise/rock super trio of all time. How heavy is it? It’s heavy enough to immediately stop your thoughts in their tracks and bludgeon them to death. It’s so immense that it reaches that trance-like place […]

Holy Scum is a devastating collision of captivating mixing and production with high caliber, high volume improvisation. Their debut 2022 LP is headphone candy for folks who love the intricate and the distorted. It’s an album that hasn’t left my rotation since release. The group is […]
I attended this incredible show in 2021 and the A Place To Bury Strangers set was the best APTBS set I’ve seen to date and a highlight of the whole festival. It’s been captured on record magnificently, true to life in its ear shattering glory. If […]
A classic noisey/kraut record and a turning point in the mighty discography of The Observatory. Its sound would define the next several rock oriented releases by the band, and fits perfectly in the psych landscape over a decade later. Elements of contemporary sound scultpting, eastern folk […]
My favorite album of 2022. An 11 person 4 band super group from Spain, they’ve been performing various live collaborations for around a decade and this is their studio debut. It’s definitely loud, brutal noise rock but the sound isn’t pinned to it’s punk lineage. There’s […]
