Album Review: Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper

Douglas Markowitz Jan 26, 2015
The Animal Collective member’s latest solo album is all about death – or so it would seem. Noah Lennox's new album is not as straightforward as the title Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper appears.

Album Spotlight: Rustie’s Green Language has a track for all

Douglas Markowitz Aug 29, 2014
Scottish producer Rustie’s new album, Green Language is EDM for people who hate EDM. Unlike the popular electronic music produced by Zedd, Avicii and their peers that sounds similar, Rustie's album offers a distinctive sound that stands apart from the rest.

America scarcely relents in its charge, building steadily upon psychedelic jams that culminate in explosive symphonies of sound.
