REZN, Cycles in the Infinite Dream
After a decade together, the Chicago psych-doom quartet craft a second album for Sargent House that’s as deadly serious in story as it is execution.
The Creem, A Taste of Cherry
On their collaborative debut, Islands’ Nick Thorburn and Ratatat’s Mike Stroud mostly adhere to a conventional pop format and rarely deviate into either artist’s inherent weirdness.
Charli XCX, Music, Fashion, Film
The pop star’s guitar-strewn reset is the stuff of savage, searing power-pop with primal, minimalist rhythms and a hint of sleek, sizzling electronics.
