  • "Blue" Gene Tyranny: Detours The latest record from this legendary San Antonio expatriate collects four haunting piano pieces that are largely characterized by the dichotomy between space and sound. Gene has always... | 2/1/2012
  • Prurient: Annihilationist No one can ever accuse Prurient's Dominick Fernow of being a slacker. Last year, he released two "proper" albums, toured with Cold Cave, and cryptically... | 1/25/2012
  • House of Low Culture: Poisoned Soil The latest release from former ISIS member Aaron Turner's new project begins with a piercing drone that segues into gorgeous analog synth and chant-like vocals... | 1/11/2012
