The Muffs formed in Los Angeles in the early 1990s. The band is made up of Kim Shattuck (lead vocals & guitar), Ronnie Barnett (bass & backing vocals) and Roy McDonald(drums). They seem to have been a bit silent over the years, but that is hardly the case. The Muffs never really went away, and they never broke … Continue reading

Chrysalis, Nostalghia’s debut is a darkly atmospheric yet ethereal album. Roy Gnan’s alternately eerie and powerful instrumentation blends beautifully with Ciscandra Nostalghia’s amorphously changing vocals and surreally emotional lyrics. According to Ciscandra “you can hear the sound of a moth throughout the entire album. At one point it comes out of my mouth and you … Continue reading
Last fall, sample-obsessed producer Girl Talk (aka Gregg Gillis) announced the news he was following up 2010 full-length album, All Day, by teaming up with legendary Philadelphia rapper Freeway for “Broken Ankles,” a collaborative EP combining both artists’ distinct, high-energy styles into a continuously flowing collection of bangers. The EP reflects the meticulous nature of … Continue reading
Tim Fogarty and Kristian Dunn formed El Ten Eleven in 2002. We caught the twosome last week at Harlows in Sacramento, CA. El Ten Eleven’s genre is not one that you can place easily into a category. They have been described as math rock, ambient, jammy, post-rock, and everything in-between. Needless to say they were pretty amazing. The two come fully supplied … Continue reading

FUZZ is a gritty masterpiece. This Los Angeles based band consists of Ty Segall (drums/vocals), Charlie Moothart (guitar/vocals), and Chad Ubovich (bass). Moohart and Segall formed FUZZ in 2011 and attempted to remain anonymous. Obviously, the cats out of the bag and FUZZ is creating quite a stir. It may have taken the band a bit to get into the … Continue reading
It’s been a “mesmerising” ascent for Temples of Kettering, England, and as the year has turned, so does their climb continue.

The video was conceived and directed by Judy Jacob (for Everything is OK), who directed and edited some of the highly-stylistic films made for Pixies’ 2009-2011 “Doolittle” world tour. Completely different from the other Pixies music videos for this project, the provocative “Magdelena” clip stars innovative British dance/theatre/performance artist Nando Messias. “Magdelena” is the second … Continue reading
