cottage pastel I really enjoyed the old-school funk vibe, well supported by natural percussion and energetic brass. The grooves, though repetitive, are mastered: they evolve just enough to keep the listening interesting, with subtle variations in rhythm and harmony. It's solid, well-constructed and coherent from start to finish. A fine piece of work. Bravo ✿ Favorite track: Men Awel Marra.

curtnjerk this jawn being from 1989 is diobalical Favorite track: Devastator.

colefarrell Streetcleaner was one of the first albums to fuse industrial music with metal. While the electronics are limited to drum machines, it nevertheless maintains the mechanical nature of industrial. The guitar riffs focus on texture, almost a predecessor to post-rock. The influence from Swans (specifically Cop and Young God) are all over this, but it distinct in its own right. Amazing and bleak overall. Favorite track: Like Rats.

James Loves You Bone-crushing industrial metal: as inventive as it is intimidating.

Shout out to Acid House Hospital (@darkmusick_) for turning me onto this album with his incessant GODFLESH advocacy. Favorite track: Tiny Tears.
