22; Listen To the Gorgeous “7.2”

Papir are one of those bands that transcend with each album. Starting out with an impressive run of LPs with the mighty El Paraiso Records in the 2010s, the power trio(which consists of Christoffer Brøchmann Christensen (drums), Nicklas SØRENSEN (guitars, keyboards) and Christian Becher Clausen (bass, keyboards), moved over to Stickman Records in 2017 and […]

“On Your Own” : A Conversation With worrieabousatan’s Gavin Miller

The last time I spoke to Gavin Miller of worriedaboutsatan was back in 2017. It wasn’t long after the electronic duo released their album Blank Tape. Back in 2017 the band was a duo which included Miller and Thomas Ragsdale, and they’d been writing and recording together since the early 2000s. At that point they […]

March On, Comrade : The Architect of Such Brilliant Lines

On the newest release from Fort Wayne’s March On, Comrade, the post-rock/progressive pop band continue to move their sound from glacial swaths of gorgeous white noise to something more pop-centric. The Architect of Such Brilliant Lines has the makings of a breakthrough record. The vocals of bassist/singer Zach Smith sit front and center, emphasizing not […]

Kanaan : Double Sun

Kanaan, the Norwegian power trio which consists of Ask Vatn Strøm(Electric and acoustic guitars), Ingvald André Vassbø(Drums, percussion and organ), and Eskild Myrvoll(Bass, synths, electric and acoustic guitars) have had a busy couple of years. Blowing minds at the end of 2018 with their El Paraiso Records debut Windborne, the group played shows for most […]

Papir : VI

Papir are one of the premier three-piece rock bands working today. The trio of Nicklas Sørensen, Christoffer Brøchmann Christensen, and Christian Becher Clausen have been working their sound into a tight, ethereal crunch for close to ten years now. Part fuzzed-out blasts of psych and post-rock, while other moments glimmer and shine with daydream bliss, […]

This Will Destroy You : New Others Part Two

I can’t say that this album is a surprise to me. I mean, This Will Destroy You dropped a new record back in September called New Others Part One. One would assume that that would mean Part Two would be coming as well. A month later and New Others Part Two did indeed drop from […]

Shine A Light : A Conversation With Fort Wayne’s Lightlow

Feature Photo by Jen. CoPhoto(used with permission) I think we all hope that we can be satisfied with our career path. Or at the very least, we can go to work everyday and find a couple people we have something in common with. Folks we can have similar tastes with that can make that coffee […]

Chemical Elements : March On, Comrade Ready New Album ‘Our Peaceful Atoms’

March On, Comrade are a hell of a band. They’ve been a band since 2015 when indie pop band Ordinary Van disbanded, but a few of the members decided to keep things going. Ryan Holquist, Charles P. Davis, and Chris Leonard started up March On, Comrade with John Ptak and Ben Robinson. They cut a great […]

Mogwai : Every Country’s Sun

I had a rough first start with Mogwai. My initial introduction to Mogwai was the Curiosa Festival back in 2004. I thought I was going to be decimated in the spot I stood in the pavilion of the World Music Theater by the sheer volume that emanated from the stage. It was a kind of […]

Papir : V

The Danish trio Papir have always sounded much larger than you’d expect three guys to sound. With just the guitar/bass/drums rock trio standard set up, these guys make a mountain of sound. At times brash and fuzz-covered, other times dreamy and atmospheric, Nicklas Sørensen, Christoffer Brøchmann Christensen, and Christian Becher Clausen cover terrain as diverse as […]
