The Nude Party, Look Who’s Back
The seven-piece rockers’ latest record serves as a sonic wayback machine to a moment when rock ’n’ roll was nothing more than a good time.
Colossal Rains, Feral Sorrow
The Blacklisted offshoot’s debut album embraces the joy of hardcore while dipping into something doomier with haunting production that eschews bright and clean sounds.
Beverly Glenn-Copeland, Laughter in Summer
The emotional new collection from the 82-year-old composer/vocalist is full of sedative new-age sounds and smartly executed art-pop that skews toward the pastoral and elegiac.
