The Chief Commie music blog: Vestiges - The Descent of Man
http://thechiefcommie.blogspot.com/2011/06/vestiges-descent-of-man.html
The Chief Commie music blog. Thursday, June 16, 2011. Vestiges - The Descent of Man. Album: The Descent of Man. There seems to be some disagreement on the intertubes as to whether Vestiges is a black metal band or a crust punk band or whatever. I'm not sure myself, but they are definitely a good band. This is a dense, full-force album with thoughtful atmosphere, not unlike Fall of Efrafa. And they're touring! Go give 'em some money! Watch Music Video now on youtube! Http:/ www.youtube.com/watch?

The Chief Commie music blog: Moon Hooch - Moon Hooch

The Chief Commie music blog. Saturday, March 31, 2012. Moon Hooch - Moon Hooch. Unrelated recommendation: You should definitely check out the new Lunar Aurora. It's already going to be a tough release to unseat from my album of the year position. I'd post it up here, but I'm sure it's already all over the intertubes by now. HipHop recording sensation Provy Suflayy released A Star Burnin Brite featuring Rachel Schryvers during world peace month to commemorate the loved ones lost in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Spiral Circus: October 2011
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 25 October 2011. Amazing artist, amazing voice. Unwilling to span to the kind of clichés spreading throughout the internet about this album, I'll just say it's a very good musical effort, from a very promising young artist who's obviously not afraid to stretch out beyond boundaries. Pop music certainly, but much much more. I'd also advise to check out her music videos. Ready to let you get under my skin. 3 Two Way Street. 6 Plain Gold Ring. 11 The Build Up.

Spiral Circus: June 2011
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 June 2011. Digitalism, I Love You Dude. I'd unconsciously waited for this for a bit so I wasn't expecting when it came out. Thumping and driving, this sophomore album: I was very surprised with the maturing of this electro "dance punk" duo — in terms of both sound and musicality — as I hadn't really loved Idealism. Except for "Anything New". I Love You Dude. Saturday, 18 June 2011. Cream, Disraeli Gears. Pedal was used on – about that, check the Cry Baby. 2 Sunshine of Your Love. Drifting aw...

Spiral Circus: November 2012
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, 18 November 2012. Dirty Projectors, Swing Lo Magellan. Watch them get away with their pizzicatos. And harp-like sounds. And broken but so beautifully voice-led harmonies. Maybe defining something I can't categorize but stands in between the cliché. Ed indie term and more progressive and mathematical music. Read something about the frontman being a genius but don't care. Good inspired music. 1 Offspring Are Blank. 2 About To Die. 3 Gun Has No Trigger. 4 Swing Lo Magellan. 5 Just From Chevron.

Spiral Circus: November 2011
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 23 November 2011. Cynic, Carbon-Based Anatomy. Following up on the last post (that was a prog-metal one), we have the recently released EP from Cynic. Apart from the minor fact that a couple of the songs are re-hashes from previous sideproject Æon Spoke, this is a delightful release. 1 Amidst The Coals. 4 Box Up My Bones. 5 Elves Beam Out. Monday, 14 November 2011. Arch/Matheos, Sympathetic Resonance. Expect nothing less than great tracks out of this record – fair share of repetitiveness...
