The LA group’s debut is an extremely stylish backdrop with no magnetic centerpiece, a fascinating—and even useful—snapshot of indie rock’s current preoccupations.
Fat Dog, Cancel Me (I’m Tired)
Still in their puppy years, the London dance-punk experimentalists’ second LP reflects our world at a time when chaos reigns and no one seems to be bothering to snap a leash onto its collar.
Bob Dylan, The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1976 Live Recordings
Capturing 22 different shows on the titular mid-’70s tour, each torrid, angst-ridden live take on this 39-disc collection sounds more manically driven than the gig before it.
