Glitterer - Life Is Not A Lesson

Glitterer - Life Is Not A Lesson-Glitterer
Life Is Not A Lesson is Glitterers secondfull-length album, featuring Ned Russin,bassist/vocalist of seminal hardcore-punkband Title Fight. This time Ned has produced the record himself, notwithstanding some recording and performance helpfrom his twin brother, Ben, and some otherfriends, as well as mixing and mastering byArthur Rizk (Code Orange, Power Trip). Itmay surprise you to hear that, irrespectiveof worldly doom and gloom, the new songsare even catchier and bigger-soundingthan those from his 2019 release, LookingThrough the Shades. With roomier drumsand more electric-guitars-per-square-inchthan ever, Life is Not a Lesson has a wayof evoking an alternate-universe versionof Guided By Voices, one with a hardcore-punk background. Life is Not a Lesson proves to be a rigorous reckoning withthe life of the mind at a time when theresnot much life outside the mind.

Architects - For Those That Wish To Exist

Architects - For Those That Wish To Exist-Epitaph
Architects are back with their ninth studio album For Those That Wish To Exist. The band have confirmed their ascent to the very upper echelons of British heavy music. Few bands, of this modern era or any other, can match the quintets ability to blend uncompromising heavi-ness with razor-sharp melodic musicianship. A versatile metal group based out of Brighton, England, Architects employ a lethal combination of breakdown-heavy guitars, melodic vocals and symphonic-ambient post-metal. That sonic delivery is conducted from a platform built on veganism and environmental activism.

UPCOMING RELEASES

Adult Mom - Driver

Adult Mom - Driver-Adult Mom
Adult Mom began as the solo project of Stevie Knipe in a Purchase College dorm room in 2012, and now falls between the playful spectrum of solo project and collaborative band with beloved friends and musicians Olivia Battell and Allegra Eidinger. On Driver, Adult Moms third studio release, Stevie Knipe delves into the emotional space just beyond a coming-of-age, where the bills start to pile up and memories of college dorms are closer than those of high school parking lots. Like so many other twenty-somethings, Adult Moms third LP seeks to answer the age old question: what now? With an actualized sound, Adult Mom has arrived to soundtrack the queer rom-com theyve been dreaming of since 2015. Driver incorporates an expert weaving of sonic textures ranging from synths and shakers to 00s-inspired guitar tones which convey a loving attention to detail.
