Album of the day: Boris – New Album

Posted on Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011

Album of the day: Chelsea Wolfe – Apokalypsis

Posted on Tuesday, October 18th, 2011

Lovingly pinched from Pitchfork: The image that Chelsea Wolfe projects dovetails with the general aesthetic put forth by her label, Pendu NYC. Granted, it’d take the tinniest of ears to conflate Wolfe’s music with the witch-house stylings of Mater Suspiria Vision or White Ring. Also, while her music is caustic ...read more
