Bob Mould, Here We Go Crazy
Explicitly pitched as a response to the unrest of early 2025, the former Hüsker Dü leader’s first album in five years continues to confidently summon instant-earworm hooks and visceral thrills.
Vundabar, Surgery and Pleasure
The infectious Boston trio’s sixth album adds some complexity to their signature jangle with darker, rougher textures, though its lyrics don’t always live up to the music’s maturity level.
Alabaster DePlume, A Blade Because a Blade Is Whole
Informed by the dualities of harm and healing, the English saxophonist and poet weaves a tapestry of sounds—spiritual jazz, folk, classical, and beyond—into a potent missive of grace.
