They released five albums from 2006 (The Con) to their most recent, 2019’s Hey, I’m Just Like You (and that’s not counting their acoustic reimagining of So Jealous, which dropped earlier this year). Anyway, Tegan […]

Wilco Announce Double Album Cruel Country Out Next Month — Hear “Falling Apart (Right Now)”
Do people really talk about Wilco as a country band anymore? I know they used to be lumped into the whole alt-country thing, but it feels like — nearly three decades into their tenure, and especially after experimental triumphs like 2002’s Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and 2004’s A Ghost Is Born — they’re viewed more like […]

Even when it rocks, there’s a certain serenity about it. Even when it eases along, there’s such contagious momentum to this music. Ever since dual […]

Kikagaku Moyo announced their fifth and final album Kumoyo Island with the soaring shapeshifter “Cardboard Pile.” The Japanese psych monsters’ next single is a bit more compact and low-key. “Gomugomu,” the latest from Kumoyo Island, is just barely over two minutes long, and maintains a sort of fried, playful vibe throughout, its altered-reality guitars trading […]
