Allan Holdsworth - Sand

Just discovering/making the effort to listen to this guys work. So beautiful. Hearing this is his best album - which wouldn't surprise me - but I hope his other albums stack up as I keep digging.

An awesome improvisational album that I came across when I was listening to the Derek Bailey radio on Spotify. This is studded with so many incredible artists including, actually I'll just tell you all of them: Bill Laswell, John Zorn, Sonny Sharrock, Fred Frith, Derek Bailey, and Charles K. Noyes.

It's surprisingly minimal for the artists involved, I was expecting something like Peter Brotzmann's Machine Gun since all of these artists (apart from Noyes, who I've never heard of) are generally noisy and cacophonous. But these pieces focus more as if these artists together are playing one instrument made up of sax, drums, guitar, and bass. The flow between the instruments in their transference from calm and eerie to abrasive yet still somewhat calm is definitely one of the high points of the album. I really wish that these guys did more work together.

EDIT: I actually have heard Noyes, he's on a Henry Kaiser and Song Won Park album that's also fantastic. He also did an album with Weasel Walter and Kaiser.
God I'm in love with that cover, it's ****ing awesome.

Elliott Brood - Ambassador

This was nice, but not totally gripping me. An album I am likely to return to because I usually grow into this Alt-Country style, although I wish it was more Goth tinged.

There seems to be a bit of a tonal shift after the 5th or 6th track. I think their sophomore album Mountain Meadows is more consistent, but lacks the dark and dreary atmosphere of the first few songs from Ambassador.

Yeah, I loved the first few tracks. It's a good album overall though.

Also, this Bill Laswell (a collective known as Material, in fact) album is good, if a little too clustered for me to really go crazy for it.

This is ****ing awesome!

Anubis Gate - Purification


This band is evidently a mixture of power metal and prog, but it does so in a really nice way. It's not too overpowering, but you can definitely see the prog and power metal influence. Definitely a worthy album to check out.

Person Pitch - Panda Bear

Side project from someone in Animal Collective, I forget who. It's pretty fantastic, sonically one of the best albums i've heard in a really long time.
