New Releases for August 25, 2023

BUCK MEEK HAUNTED MOUNTAIN - 4AD CD/LP

Meek, who is better known as the guitarist for Big Thief than as a solo artist, specializes in a philosophical strain of songwriting, one that is still personal but not necessarily confessional. His songs aren’t merely vessels for stories, but prompts for reminiscences, tools to stir up the dust in the darker corners of his mind. - PITCHFORK


SPELLING SPELLING & THE MYSTERY SCHOOL - SACRED BONES LP

The album presents a thoughtfully curated collection of tracks that provide illuminating glimpses into Cabral's artistic evolution. From the haunted, seductive strains of "Walk Up to Your House" to the more radiant, joyous cadences of "Under the Sun" – which now directly evokes Berlin-era Bowie – each track contributes its distinct hues to the overall sonic canvas. - THE LINE OF BEST FIT


THE ARMED PERFECT SAVIORS - SARGENT HOUSE LP

Fans looking for another in-your-face onslaught of wild post-hardcore experimentation may not enjoy everything about Perfect Saviors. However, what The Armed do here is exponentially more valuable and commendable than merely playing it safe. Like the best bands who gradually alter their sound in wide-ranging and welcoming ways, Wolski and company challenge themselves (and their audience) to look forward while appreciating the past. As a result, the genre-bending Perfect Saviors is likely their most confidently and satisfyingly adventurous release thus far. - METAL INJECTION
