$uicideboy$, Thy Kingdom Come
On their fifth proper LP, Ruby da Cherry and Scrim’s usually dense, trap-imbued soundscapes are open and airier, leaving more room for the duo and their guests to misery-wallow within.
Nuclear Daisies, First Taste of Heaven
The club-ready breakbeats and unrelenting experimentation on the Austin trio’s second LP serve as a deafening clarion call for humanity to get its act together before it’s too late.
Wisp, If Not Winter
Natalie Lu’s debut leans into the “pop” side of dream pop, exploring the double-edged sword of yearning with big builds and a combination of delicacy and pummeling sound.
