Lush is so dear to my heart. Spooky is my absolute favorite! I would rip off the art style of the cover pretty hard in college. No regrets! Read more

Pale Saints
" In Ribbons " is the 2nd full length album from Leeds, UK based Pale Saints. It continues with the dynamic loud / soft dreamy sound of their 1st album.

For Mahalia, With Love (CD)

James Brandon Lewis & Red Lily
Using songs associated with the most iconic Gospel music legend as a jumping-off point for arrangements that lead into group improvisations is not that crazy, actually. In fact, this recording is a thing of great beauty! James Brandon Lewis - tenor saxophone Kirk Knuffke - cornet William Parker - bass Chad Taylor - drums Chris Hoffman - cello Also, Mendoza/Hoff Revels' "Echolocation", which also features Lewis as well as drummer Ches Smith (joining electric guitarist Ava Mendoza and bassist Devin Hoff) rips!

Protect Your Light (LP)

Irreversible Entaglements
Okay, yes, there's a theme here, I see: a lot of invocations, incantations and intonations, by women-led groups (or in the case of "For Mahalia", inspired by Lewis' beloved grandmother's love for the music of Mahalia Jackson. But the spells are just about as potent.) Irreversible Entanglements: check it! Read more
