Hard to resist these perfectly skewed post-industrial avant-jazz hybrids from Jac Berrocal, David Fenech and Vincent Epplay, particularly as they brought Cosey Fanni Tutti and Jah Wobble along to the party. coldspring.bandcamp.com/album/broken...

I'm not the world's biggest indie rock fan to put it mildly, but this new one from The Drin has definitely got something ... thedrin.bandcamp.com/album/elude-...

Thanks to @nicbrown.bsky.social for this week’s Feature Pick. ZULI is an Electronic musician and Producer who was born in Greece, based in Berlin. His new album, Lambda, combines glitchy atmospherics with loose beats, served at a pensive pace. zulimusic.bandcamp.com/album/lambda

To my certain knowledge, I've had no previous encounters with the traditional music of Michigan, but if it's anything like the fusion of smoking hot psych rock and Kenyan folk Dr. Pete Larson & Co serve up here, I'm catching the next plane over. drpetelarson.bandcamp.com/album/michig...

There's been a glut of excellent nonconformist French folk in recent months and this new one from Le Puy-based duo D'en Haut is a beauty, particularly if, like me, you're a sucker for a bit of shruti box. facette.bandcamp.com/album/den-haut

Are you a #guitar fan? Do you enjoy wildly distorted, sick guitar licks? Well, let me introduce you to Rəhman Məmmədli. You've never heard a timbre like this. Unhinged, distorted tones accompany free flowing Eastern tinged improvisations. 🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥 rhmanmmmdli.bandcamp.com/album/azerba...

Never was a band more aptly named than The Inner Mystique Spiritual Collective. North African ritual psychedelia to die for. lotophagusrecords.bandcamp.com/album/oasis-...

'Pleroma' is nigh-on indescribable, so suffice it to say, if this isn't the most batshit metal record you've heard all year, I'll eat my own, not inconsiderable weight in hats. orgoneus.bandcamp.com/album/pleroma

If any band besides The Fall is deserving of John Peel’s 'always different, always the same' epithet, it's Krallice. New album's a corker too. krallice.bandcamp.com/album/inorga...

I'm not averse to a spot of prog, particularly when it's as out of its tree as this. notmusiclabel.bandcamp.com/album/heart-...

Splashgirl and Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe channelling the spirit of Talk Talk circa 'Laughing Stock', right down to a cover of 'Taphead'. Works for me. splashgirlhubro.bandcamp.com/album/more-h...

Fantastic atmospheric sludge mixed with improvised psychedelic noise rock freakouts, rumbling groovy riffs, stretches of droning funeral doom, avant free improv jazz with downtowned instruments. SUMAC throwing their hat in the ring for AOTY. Enthralling. #MetalSky sumac.bandcamp.com/album/the-he...
