Damien Jurado, Reggae Film Star

The songwriter’s 18th LP is a haunted concept album that brings to life the tired hearts, souls, and minds of characters based in a distant, perhaps parallel, past.

Martin Courtney, Magic Sign

The Real Estate vocalist’s second solo LP can coast by in one moment before jolting you back to bygone days with a sharp turn of phrase or instrumental U-turn.

Wire, Not About to Die

For Wire fanatics, this often-coarse collection of Chairs Missing/154-era demos is a necessity.
