Butthole Surfers, After the Astronaut
The noise rockers’ long-shelved follow-up to Electriclarryland arrives as a fascinating artifact of a band caught between self-sabotage and the lure of commercial pop accessibility.
Sierra Spirit, Rodeo Clown
On her latest EP, the Native songwriter blends personal and ancestral histories with soft-plucked steel string and powwow drumming to create a shimmering portrait of her heritage.
Warning, Rituals of Shame
The pummeling hypnotism of the doom-metal band’s first new material in 20 years still feels perfectly matched to Patrick Walker’s pained howls and Vantablack-hued emotions.
