♡kitty♡ - FROSTBITE [Synth Pop/Rap/Jailbait]

I won't even miss you...

Frostbite is a simply adorable EP from the equally adorable synth pop/rapper Kitty. The strong points of Frostbite come from the over abundance of sugar coated beats and Kitty's signature whispery-sass that put her on the map in synthpop.

Not enough life...

The Named, formerly known as industrial group The Shizit, have re-mastered their previously unreleased record Seeing Is Destroying under Glitch Mode Recordings.  This album is a political power bomb of insane energy.

bansheebeat - Spiral Power [Electronic]

Look at that album art, isn't it really aesthetic? If you are a top music curator like me then you know that aesthetics are all that matter in music. As they are the future of music. Now listen to this album, tell me, doesn't it sound aestheticy? bansheebeat is an electronic artist who takes his love for NES video games, Toonami, dystopian futures, and magic and places them all in a unique and beautiful atmosphere. 

The album oozes with dark atmospheres, with every heavy texture and feathery synth interlacing into heavenly melodies. The drumming itself is also well composed, every drum line dances in skittery unison to craft a firm foundation for the aforementioned synth work. Not to mention every drum sample sounds completely unique from the ones on previous tracks, making this album even more special in it's execution. If you need something to relax to, this is your go to.

[Non-Bandcamp] Bomb the Music Industry! - Vacation [Ska Punk]

Nothing's forever, dude...

Bomb the Music Industry! We're the living epitome of fun. Something of a supergroup with 6 members (and 20 assistant artists) from various bands in the punk scene Bomb the Music Industry spent the 8 years that they were active creating one amazing record after the other of pure unadulterated fun with song writing that far surpassed other bands in the "maturity" department. Vacation, the final album from Bomb the Music Industry, saw the group slowing things down a bit. The songwriting, while still shining with the sarcastic and depressing wit of previous records, starts to get more introspective with it's subject matter. 

Despite it's overall fun sounding nature, nothing's forever, dude is the perfect line to describe this album. Despite Jeff yelling the line out loud with a quick melodic hook, the line itself is sad in it's own special way. And as each subsequent track passes, you feel the sadness of seeing the group going grow ever stronger. It's a perfect closing album with highlight after highlight and rare of any drags. Whether you like hardcore screaming, bouncy ska, jittery electronics, or solemn ballads, this album has it all and does it with a special signature fun that no other band will ever be able to replicate. Have a great vacation guys.

Archivist - ARCHIVIST [Post Metal/Black Metal]

Please, take a seat

The black metal scene has seen a rise in "acoustic/emotional" melodies being mixed in with the principal foundation of the genre... Ghost Bath has done it with large controversy due to the mystery of where and what the group exactly is and Dreamheaven did it with an album that was hailed by countless publications as the best album of 2013. Now we have Archivist, a brand new band that has been a little quiet in the scene (considering this album is only ten days old) but has released what is undoubtedly a candidate for album of the year. 

Archivist play in a similar fashion to both Ghost Bath and Deafheaven with their debut ARCHIVIST, but they separate themselves with an ambitious concept and stellar songwriting and performance to boot. This is an album about a woman, a women who is the last living human on earth as everyone else has died off from an ecological disaster. This album follows her inner monologue along with her journal entries tracking the events of her leaving earth and her thoughts on society for how messed up it was. Odd concept, indeed. How it's executed though is beyond stellar. Spoken word passages play through certain tracks to serve as "journal entrees" while the music itself takes emotion to the next level. This album makes you feel sad, not in the normal black metal style though, but more with just the music itself being the barren atmosphere you'd imagine if you were alone with everyone around you being gone. 

This is a hard album for me to actively discuss, since I'm not the most well-versed with metal (something I mentioned on an older post) but do take my word when I say that Archivist are a group you must keep on your radar for the following years. There is something beautiful going on here, and Archivist a group worthy of your attention.

They all like really sad doom metal, right? Just remember, a little support and a little word of mouth goes a long way! <3
