Devendra Banhart, Cripple Crow [20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition]
Further extending the LP’s dimensions, this reissue adds a third disc of outtakes, B-sides, and demos that only serve to fortify the project’s sonic asymmetry and emotional, quixotic lyricism.

Die Spitz, Something to Consume
With their Will Yip–produced debut, the Austin punk quartet has something to say about postmodern society in 11 metal-fusion tracks ripe with political turmoil and skatepark angst.

Shame, Cutthroat
The UK rockers don’t mince words on their fourth studio album, pairing their infectious proto-punk grooves with nakedly hedonistic lyrics.

Meshing elements of rap, rock, and R&B, the duo of Louie Pastel and Felix discuss their unlikely come-up over the past year.

Camae Ayewa discusses working with artistic limitations, the relationship between poetry and music, and the direction she took with her latest solo LP.

The brains behind recent videos from Earl Sweatshirt & The Alchemist, MAVI, and Lil Uzi Vert discusses his DIY style and evolution as an artist.

The London-based artist plays with percussive beats with a confidence that enables her to weave seemingly unrelated textures into the same pattern.

The producer’s newest LP is a preservation of blissful, temporary moments that escape once you open your eyes and exhale.

From the EP’s get-go, it’s clear the trio is unafraid to continuously push creative boundaries.
