Sunflower Bean, Mortal Primetime

The New York trio’s first self-produced album has a smooth, consistent, quietly confident sound quality that reflects the elegance that’s always been at their core.

BRUIT ≤, The Age of Ephemerality

The French post-rock band lyrically addresses the unthinkable progress and regression of our post-internet age via droning metal and modern-classical sound on their second LP.

Fly Anakin, (The) Forever Dream

The Virginia rapper’s guest-filled latest is a stellar collection of bright, diverse, and downright gorgeous hip-hop that’s so light-on-its-feet it can sometimes feel like it’s sweeping you off yours.
