There just aren’t very many—if any—albums quite like Reaching In, a fascinating magnum opus by The James McGowan Ensemble

The breadth of work, styles, voices, and genres, even, displayed on SINES’ Long Player, Gravity is, at times, a wonder to behold. Throw in the collection of cuts on random.

There’s some highly credible work to be found on Rise Again, the latest album from Smokeboss Militia.

Quickly hit up “Still Waiting”, the first number on Pretty Crimes’ Every Moment All At Once album.

Frank Clare’s latest work, Admiratio Magna, is a curious study of a man and his music. Perhaps a man and his piano is a better description, since that instrument is the only sound to populate this seven-song pastiche of moods, tempos, and melodies.

Throw on the Punk Not Dead EP from Spike Polite & Sewage, which just touched down on January 15th, when you’re just getting up from bed. Or just getting off work. Or when the weekend’s finally arrived.

If there’s one thing Negativehate proves on its latest Long Player, Shapeshifter, it’s that there’s some people who’ll never be able to play the guitar like this.

Patrick Ames’ latest single, “Young and Amorous” is part of a two-cut offering that also includes “I Was Thinking”.

…for Never2Late, it was the day the band’s latest single, “Love Is Wise”, was released and hit the streets.
