SAVED (CD)
Reverend Kristin Michael
Best known as Lingua Ignota, Kristian Hayter was quickly revitalizing the neo-classical darkwave genre with a pair of frightening yet powerful releases in 2019 and 2021, respectively. But in 2023, she retired the moniker due to the contents of her music being too “excruciating to perform” as it kept making her relive her past traumas. Thus her new moniker, Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter, was born and with it came her awesome debut album “SAVED.” Here, Hayter continues to explore that neo-darkwave sound but now with a gospel twist. Complete with deteriorating Victrola samples and a warped choir, the album is a disturbing epic praising the Lord and/or hailing Satan. Find it in the Experimental section, not Gospel.

Osees
Did not expect the synth-punk approach to this one but MAN is it good! The opening track blends nicely in with Combo’s newest album (see above). Plus the addition of “The Fish Needs A Bike” cover was a nice surprise.

After The Magic (CD)
Parannoul
There's an amazing music scene happening in Seoul, of all places. Tons of emo, shoegaze, and post-rock bands from the area have been dropping one killer album after another with Parannoul being the most notable. Though he keeps a very low profile, his music has made a huge impact- especially in the states; “To See The Next Part of the Dream” is strongly recommended if you like bittersweet lo-fi music rooted in nostalgia. “After The Magic” is a much more polished sounding album but noisy and euphoric in the best way possible. This is a must-listen. Big shout out to Longinus Records and Topshelf Records for putting out Parannoul’s works in the US.

Hiroshi Yoshimura
I’m thrilled to be seeing Yoshimura’s discography slowly getting reissued one album at a time. “Music For Postcards” and “Green” seem to always get the most attention but this one is just as good. Top tier Japanese ambient/new age from the 80’s.

Bowery Electric
Nice to see this one get a reissue. Great droney shoegaze with a hint of trip hop. The remaster sounds excellent AND it also includes the songs from the Drop EP. Amongst Kranky's vast catalog, this is one to own.
