Chat Pile & Hayden Pedigo, In the Earth Again

Destruction and decay may be the themes explored by the unlikely collaboration of a noise-rock band and a folk guitarist, but instrumentally, they make it sound beautiful, lush, and gentle.

Soft Cell, The Art of Falling Apart [Super Deluxe Edition]

This six-disc collection expands upon the aggression, industrialism, and pernicious lyrics of the duo’s 1983 LP—a revenge, of sorts, on becoming pin-up darlings of the British new wave.

Miguel, Caos

The alt-R&B star’s fifth album embraces existential lyrical concepts to match its dusky jazz-electro sound, industrial ambience, and grouchy fuzzed guitars.
