Saintseneca, Highwallow & Supermoon Songs

The cosmic Ohio band’s sprawling fifth album represents the best of the late-’00s indie-folk scene, with Zac Little proving that he very much earns his suspenders.

Florence + the Machine, Everybody Scream

After recent big swings across the pop plate, Florence Welch’s gothic sixth album gets cerebral and probing as the songwriter proves herself to be more in touch with her emotions.

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.
