If the setting is right, magic will happen. And so, this record came into being. Sunburned Hand of the Man, three decades into their one of a kind run, still possess the ability to amaze, stupefy and astound - even themselves. Recorded over a week at Big Blue, Adam Langellotti’s (Kurt Vile & The Violators) studio/house, "Nimbus" sees the band's amorphous lineup produce results such as high-test workouts, cryptic readings & a choice cover (Sun City Girls). A record that this band could only produce in 2024 and the required next step for the devoted fan base and or those interested in doing some self-work in an unconventional setting.

"Vast," the new album from Wet Tuna, is the sort of irreverent, playful psychedelia that can only come from the hands of masters. Pleasantly disorienting, secretly whip-tight stuff swerving in and out of focus and locking in on a dime like a zonked out scan across the late night radio dial. A scenic journey through head music in all its finest forms, dubbed out electro, warped R&B, burnout fuzz and scenes invented right here. Never settling in, always drifting and melting into the next station stop. Where are we? Where are we headed? Everywhere. Everywhere. Let Matt "MV" Valentine be your guide.

Miller Jenks & Rose Cross NC: Blues From What [CD]

In a world of guitar players, James "Wooden Wand" Toth remains first and foremost a songwriter and lyricist. Clipper Ship, however, presents a break in tradition: in attempting to emancipate himself from old habits, Toth wrote most of the songs on Clipper Ship "music first," adding lyrics later, a reversal of the tried and true method that has made him one of the most prolific and respected songwriters of his generation. The result is the most democratically-conceived, multi-layered, and musically sophisticated album in the vast Wooden Wand discography.
