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.
MØL, Dreamcrush
The Danish group hones their tantalizing blend of shoegaze and black metal on their third album, balancing heartfelt passages suitable for airplay with all-out assaults.
