The Bargain Bin: Bob Mould's BODY OF SONG - Merry-Go-Round Magazine

Within The Beach Boys’ "Heroes and Villains” Is Brian Wilson's Ambition And Insecurity

Brian Wilson claimed he wasn’t made for these times, but we all know the reality: He was just built different. Brian Wilson was a demigod. Brian was Icarus; although instead of staring too long at the sun, he was forced to behold the scarred socket of his father Murry’s missing eye. I suppose, in some roundabout and mythical way, this also makes him Thor. Brian pierced the veil of the American psyche and was left forever changed. I live and work…Read Article

Hybridgaze – what’s that? It’s a new genre I’ve just made up, which involves stitching together artist A-meets-artist B comparisons and calling it a music review. Normally music journos are better than musicians at – what do you call it? – this labelling thing, but Danish drum and bass shoegaze duo 100%WET are the exception to my made-up rule. They’re pioneers of their own invented hypergaze genre, and it would be better to open your ears than r…Denmark · DenmarkSee the Story

Levinson made a record of bizarro electronic pop, juxtaposing high fantasy, digital decay, and the emotional metal of her band Agriculture. The eclectic soundscapes of nearly a decade’s worth of at-home experiments is distilled into CIAO BELLA, her longest-gestating and finest album, made entirely from MIDI s…Read Article
