"The point is, [Shilpa Ray]’s worldview is akin to a black comedy where death and sex joust for top billing, with a punk-tinged soundtrack composed on a dreamy slide guitar and an Indian harmonium. But her vivid scenes deserve more rave reviews than they draw.

The first single off Shilpa Ray's new album, Last Year's Savage, is called "Pop Song for Euthanasia." This is a very Shilpa Ray thing to do. She named her first solo album sans her Happy Hookers ba...

The first song off Shilpa Ray Band Page / Shilpa Ray's new album is finally available to hear. She's a brilliant songwriter. I can't wait to share the full album.

Shilpa Ray’s “Pop Song for Euthanasia” is just that. As vintage accordions stretch for dear life, the song takes the shape of a macabre waltz. When the lyrics address a mercy killing, it makes sense: “If I broke your spine would you hold my hand when I tell you it’s all over?” The percussion stagger…

Justin Frye was an artist in residence at Ace Hotel New York. He made this video for three songs off of PC Worship's Social Rust.

Zs has been a band since I was six years old. The first Zs lineup began playing rigorously challenging compositions as a sextet whilst I was still playing with blocks. Since then, Zs has released five full-lengths (including 2012’s Score, which is basically four albums), two EPs, and three remix re…

Thanks Paste Magazine.

Coming together on various previous projects, including 2013’s Chelsea Light Moving disc, the guitar-drums pairing of Thurston Moore and Sunburned Hand of the Man’s John Moloney has churned through not just the history of loud improvised music, but each performer’s back catalog as well.

Thurston Joseph Michael Moore and John William Moloney's new Caught on Tape LP is called Full Bleed (Northern Spy) . It's out today. And it's going to be in my top ten of the year even though I'm wholly biased.
