Mary Halvorson’s Meltframe is the product of three years of gestation and refinement. Initially conceived as a solo guitar album made up of jazz standards, the final document is comprised of modern compositions long admired by Mary, the oldest being Duke Ellington’s “Solitude.” The remainder of the pieces date from the early 1960s, through to Tomas Fujiwara’s contemporary “When.”

In a twist befitting a player with such an original voice, the compositions Mary chose to interpret are not exclusively from composers who have informed her playing and music from the beginning (such as Roscoe Mitchell, Ornette Coleman, and Oliver Nelson), but also by contemporaries: Chris Lightcap, Noël Akchoté, and Fujiwara. Viewed as the personal — and often revealing — statement that solo documents often are, Meltframe traces Mary’s path from the beginning to the present.

“One of the most exciting and original guitarists in jazz — or otherwise.”

Wide-ranging guitarist Brad Allen Williams explores his organ trio roots with a sympathetic group of longtime collaborators. Sound, feeling, and mood are the focus here, though there is no shortage of impressive musicianship. By choosing an all-analog capture, the focus was courageously kept on the honesty of the performances; this comes through with a warmth and energy that’s often missing from contemporary recordings.

Richy Nix’s FiXT debut, Fearless, is a head-turning and explosive record from the latest artist to join the world’s premier electronic rock label. Mixed by Joey Sturigs (Asking Alexandria, The Devil Wears Prada), the album is a bombastic testament to triumph over the most difficult of obstacles. Songs like “Senseless,” which contains programming from FiXT owner Celldweller, show Nix at his finest — crossing between metal, hip-hop and rock flawlessly — while the electronic ballad “Watch Over Us” gives listeners a look inside Nix’s most personal moments. Whether a track is fast and in-yourface, filled with genre-melding electronics, or slow and emotionally soothing, it is undeniably Richy Nix.

For over a decade, Los Angeles hardcore outfit Terror has acquired a fiercely loyal following not only through their multiple recorded outputs, but also through their live shows. Of course it helps that lead vocalist Scott Vogel was long popular for fronting legendary Buffalo, NY bands like Slugfest, Despair, and most famously, Buried Alive. The other members are no strangers to the hardcore scene either; the band shares members or ex-members of Piece By Piece, Down To Nothing, Donnybrook, Carry On, No Warning, and more.

Terror recorded their sixth full-length album The 25th Hour at Orange County’s BuzzBomb Sound Labs with Paul Miner. This is the followup to their 2013 release Live By The Code, which debuted at #1 on the Heatseekers chart and #121 on the Billboard 200!

Optimists, the debut LP from Washington DC’s Mittenfields, is a collection of raucous tunes with a widescreen scope that are both memorable and memory-inducing. Riffing on sonic touchstones ranging from Pavement and Built To Spill to Television and The Arcade Fire, these eight tracks kick off with the stomping, concise mission statement of the title track and sprawl outward. Through the driving, psychedelic haze of “We’ve Become Numbers,” the LowerEast-Side-strut of “Goldmine,” and the Crazy Horse-goneshoegaze epic “Surprise Me,” lyrics touching on grown-up disillusionment are cut with an acerbic wit, proving that nostalgia provides perspective, if not safety, when reckoning with the past.

Debut vinyl release, pressed on a clear 7” record! real virtual unison is a vibey techno-vaporized series of tracks arranged with the exposed pop-sensibility of songwriter and producer Lindsey French. The four-track EP, filled with flute-like washes of synth, reflects admiration for the clubreverberating flange saw of ’90s techno with a thirst for silky feminine vocals typical of the bubblegum era. Style-hopping, with influences from future pop to vaporwave, the EP was created in true bedroom-pop fashion over the course of the last year, as French moved from hometown Richmond, VA to Queens, NY.

ESA’s (Electronic Substance Abuse) sound is a hard one to pin down.

Taking influences from rhythmic noise acts, the overall structures have developed and integrated countless influences from the broad spectrum of alternative and extreme music. The tone of ESA is harsh and oppressive, dripping with destructive and corroded grooves while still emanating subconscious melodies and a strong sense of spirituality. ESA’s compositions are undoubtedly threatening and offensive floor-stomping club tunes, but also twist and churn enough to warrant more attentive listening.

After spending seven years fronting Hank III’s thrash-punk outfit Assjack, Gary Lindsey moved to Austin and started Black Eyed Vermillion. His latest release, Never Shed A Bloody Tear, shows one of the widest ranges of styles and influences heard so far in the burgeoning genre of heavy folk, combining rock, bluegrass, folktronic, hellbilly, strings, stoner metal, New Orleans street jazz, blues, traditional Irish, and hardcore punk together as if they were old friends. Now, from deep in the heart of Texas, comes the latest from Black Eyed Vermillion: a very special release, from the amount of time labored to craft each song, to the overall vibe of the album. Lindsay has gone above and beyond to inject a new level of roots folklore into every song, giving a shot in the arm to the entire roots community that has so wholeheartedly embraced Black Eyed Vermillion.

With a body of work that cannot be neatly categorized, his music is marked by a sound that is both hallucinatory and intensely physical, and an aesthetic engagement with the role of mysticism in contemporary life. His debut album as composer, Enter Houses Of, was released in 2009 on John Zorn’s Tzadik label and praised by the New York Times, among others. As a solo performer, he is active under the name Oneirogen, a project known for its merging of ethereal synths, brutal distortion, and noise influences.

Written by little Jimmy Urine in his twenties and produced by little Jimmy Urine in his forties, this retro 1990s album is the lost puzzle piece in the formation of the unique MSI sound, which would eventually piss off millions, with 19 tracks including 15 never-before-heard MSI songs, tracks off the self-titled EP, hidden songs, an audio diary from 22-year-old Jimmy Urine, a picture anatomy of what you need to make an MSI song, and finally — after 20 years — the reveal of the origin of the band’s name!

Anna Conner: vocals, guitar Casey Harvey: guitar Rachel Harvey: bass Scott Tiemann: drums

Formed in 2005, the band’s previous efforts (2007’s Sun Come Undone and 2010’s Night Falls) garnered the kind of glowing praise most indie acts could only hope for. Now, with Seas and its swirling, reverb-drenched guitars and dreamy yet plaintive vocals, the album brings to mind a mix of the classic shoegaze era-gone-by, Hounds of Love Bush-isms and a splash of ’90s emoprogenitors Rainer Maria, resulting in Thrushes’ most focused work to date.

Recorded and produced by J. Robbins (Jawbox, Burning Airlines, Office of Future Plans) at Magpie Cage Studios in Baltimore, Exposing Seas is set for a fall release on Florida’s New Granada Records.

“Gorgeous, vulnerable vocals and swaying guitars.”

Track Listing: Katydid • Joan Of Arc • Night • Arsonist • Salt & Stone • Snowblind • Two Ships • Slow Road

“Anyone who has fond memories of 4AD will be all over this.”

Key Markets: Hometown: Baltimore. Also: New York, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Richmond, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Austin, Orlando

“Gorgeous and affecting.”

“Technicolor noise-pop brilliantly polished to sparkle.”

Permanent Makeup gets a glowing track premiere from MAGNET: “A delightful burst of energy … Everything about Florida’s Permanent Makeup screams ‘80s and ‘90s punk, from its aesthetic to its production to its work ethic ... [this] new track ... embodies a DIY sound, a rough-around-theedges kind of punk.”
