GOODNESS IN STORE IN PRINT & ONLINE >>>
It's Thursday, which means two things: editor Matt Driscoll has already set his phone on "do not disturb," and there's a new Volcano music section on the street.
Here's a taste of the goodness in store in print and online.
APACHE CHIEF
For having such a short existence, Apache Chief have been hard at work creating a storied history. Formed in 2009 with a saxophone-player subbing on shit-drums, Apache Chief burst through the gates with an intriguing combination of "fuck it" attitude and steadfast musical integrity. I think, for them, those two stances are more or less inseparable. - Rev. Adam McKinney
Cossu's a laudable pianist, and his compositions have a playful precision to them. While his lite jazz isn't for everyone, in some circles, Cossu's type of music is seeming less and less like a guilty pleasure, and more like an unexpected muse - the last sacred temple of musical artistry, the ultimate unmolested fount of sample-able material and inspiration. Given enough time, even Franzia box wine will age into something tolerable, just as Cossuian soft rock has been reappraised as strangely subversive in its anachronistic cheesiness. - Jason Baxter
Leonne explained that the sound Night Fox was originally going for was, "music for planes going down, with old ladies sitting next to young men both looking at each other and saying ‘Let's do this.‘" What Night Fox ended up with, though, was some extreme dance party music that has nothing to do with Nicki Minaj at all. - Nic Leonard
Slowwave (whom some may know as, formerly, Freeze & Fur Coat) mirror my anxieties with their music, which, lovely though it may be, always maintains a prickly coldness. The songs on the band's debut EP, Drag Lake Sin, are awash in electronic reverb and slow, steady melodies. But then there are those jittery waves, those chipped beats in the background, threatening to poke holes in Slowwave's hazy cellophane. It's as if Slowwave threatens to - at any moment - rudely jolt you from the transfixed state of their own creation. - Rev. AM
