Beat Crave: Unreleased Jimi Hendrix Music On The Way
Spirit | Apse
If I had to explain Spirit in one sentence, I’d say it’s a dark, atmospheric, and experimental post-rock album. It has a tribal feel at times, and the vocals are used as an additional feature to the overall sound rather than the primary source of the melody, as many post-rock groups are prone to. Other adjectives I think perfectly describe this album are: haunting, creepy, spacey, and weird.
Rodrigo y Gabriela
This post is somewhat of a departure from most of our other reviews on this site. Pretty much all of the others are for a rock/metal band or hip hop act. Rodrigo y Gabriela are a Mexican acoustic guitar duo with a background in metal.

Animals as Leaders
Animals as Leaders is a project based out of Washington D.C. with an absolutely phenomenal guitarist. Few people can eloquently harness an 8-string guitar and even fewer can actually bring emotion to shredding. I was instantly hooked by the guitar, but it’s the fact that every piece of this band is just as incredible that got me addicted.
Re-review of Melon as Viewed by Corban Goble
I recently read a god awful review written by Corban Goble over at Adequacy.net about an album I have also reviewed. I’m actually enlightened by how little effort I really have to put into writing a review…
Gazpacho
Gazpacho is roughly what I’d call a progressive rock band. They have the core of a progressive rock band but surface appearance of an older rock band. Their singer immediately reminded me of an odd mixture of Thom Yorke and Jeff Buckley, but the music definitely had a sound of progressive rock. What makes Gazpacho a bit on the outskirts of progressive rock is their ambient, art rock, and folk influences.
