Book of Hours - Art to the Blind

Cover art

This Swedish band starts off their first album with a nice slice of instrumental rock: two guitars, bass, and drums slipping easily between phrases of three and four beats. It is well arranged,...

Bondage Fruit - IV

Cover art

After a mildly disappointing third album, Bondage Fruit is back in top form. Over the top, in fact. Much of this is insanely complex music that one might swear is all improvised, at least until the...

Bob Drake - Medallion Animal Carpet

Cover art

The mysterious contributor to 5uu’s and Thinking Plague has secreted another solo album and I’m overjoyed for the new aural ooze! After all, that’s what Drake’s blend of...

Arepos - A Blue Flask

Cover art

Arepos is one of the most well-known avant-pop bands of the 90s and is recognizable because of its intelligent melodies, its jazz rhythms, its rather minimalist piano work and, mostly, for its...

Agitation Free - The Other Sides of Agitation Free

Cover art
