This month, Wand launch their third album in what can only be called the relative blink of an eye: their Drag City debut, 1000 Days.

Sounding forth from a resonating body, the music of Six Organs of Admittance seems to reach us from an ancient remove. Ben Chasny's 6OOA vehicle is a wide-ranging craft, spanning over a dozen albums whose gaze is always shifting, but whose focus never wavers. With Hexadic II, Ben Chasny's unique touch on acoustic guitar is brought back to our ears after what feels like a kind of forever. What may identify to some ears as folk music is caught in an...

Laetitia Sadier's music emanates deep from within, shifting and overflowing into the universe for all to experience. Her songs are communicated with delicately textured production, twinkling and shifting with the subtlety of nature - often sounding like the world outside, whooshing and chirping and clicking in time, situating themselves in the places where we live. And beginning this upcoming Friday, Laetitia will visit these places where we live, in person! Embarking on a long awaited solo tour of the United States in support of... (read more)

Royal Trux..... A band whose very existence and legacy were and are dominated by words and phrases like 'out of it' and 'sabotage' would just decide out of nowhere that they're gonna play another show? The day's come and gone that Royal Trux took the stage at Berserktown II, laying it down on a packed house of rock and roll freaks and weirdos.  Little bits of footage of the performance appeared the day after and just as suddenly disappeared. What the FUCK! Why did... (read more)

Wand are out there, a voice from beyond; on the new frontier, an absolute powerhouse force to portend! Slipped between countless shows stateside and across the Atlantic while touring for Golem, a NEW record was recorded! 1000 Days pulls a few pages off the calendar, where Wand are accessing new sounds and relationships to make that elusive artwork, the "album".
