Dälek, Brilliance of a Falling Moon

Just as the industrial hip-hop stalwarts have never been tourists within the genre, Will Brooks’ lyrical focus on class war and normalized tragedy remains steadfast on the project’s tenth LP.

Digital Underground, Sex Packets [35th Anniversary Edition]

This double LP celebrates the adventurous 1990 debut from the freaks of the industry by offering rare remixes and other unreleased tracks from the era packaged with a 3D gatefold.

Footballhead, Weight of the Truth

Shifting between post-hardcore, emo, and nu-metal, the Chicago outfit’s second LP sounds as if it could be a forgotten relic of the late-’90s—perhaps at the expense of it feeling like their own.
