All the reviews, all the music, all the formats.
What we have here is a split 7″ featuring TORO Y MOI and CLOUD NOTHINGS, appropriately coming from the Carpark Records label out of Washington D.C.

Portland duo BRAINSTORM are back in 2011 with a brand new digital EP, sticking to a wide variety of influences and ethnic sounds through their captivating and high-energy approach. Continue reading “Brainstorm – Flat Earth EP”
RELIGIOUS KNIVES are back with a brand new full length on Sacred Bones, their last coming from the Ecstatic Peace label back in 2008. That being said, it’s been awhile since these Brooklyn natives were back in the spotlight. Continue reading “Religious Knives – Smokescreen”

The cousinly duo of JAVELIN released two exclusives on Record Store Day, this 7″ being one of them. Coming from the Luaka Bop label, this was their first release since their 2010 full length “No Más.” Continue reading “Javelin – Coleridge 7″”
For those of you who recall the BALKANS 7″, now they’ve taken it to a whole new level. Their self-titled full length is due out May 10th from Double Phantom Records, but we’re here to give you a preview before it’s officially unleashed. Continue reading “Balkans – Balkans”
