Brian Crook of the Renderers in his underground soundlab in the South Island of New Zealand.
Glacial, romantic mood artists from Melbourne, Australia.
Ex-Slovenly experimentalists from San Francisco.
New Zealand alt-country forebear branching out onto her own, backed by her band the Renderers.
John Darnielle's sometimes one-man band conquering the world, one frantic acoustic opus at a time. A different animal than the JD/Peter Hughes band that you've come to know and love from their excellent 4AD albums Tallahassee, We Shall All Be Healed, The Sunset Tree, Get Lonely, and Heretic Pride, these 'Goats sounds are more lo-fi and humor-laden but still unparalleled in their singularity. |
