Chorusgirl

November 13, 2015

Alternative/Indie Rock

Full of chunky, guitar-heavy songs, strong melodies, and Silvia Wersig's commanding vocals, the band's debut is a brilliant fusion of the '90s and 2010s that calls to mind the Breeders and Dum Dum Girls in equal amounts.

The Velvet Underground

The Complete Matrix Tapes

October 30, 2015

Alternative/Indie Rock

Two nights and four sets in the career of one of America's most important rock bands, The Complete Matrix Tapes is an essential document for anyone interested in the Velvet Underground. Remixed and remastered from original tapes of a two-night San Francisco stand in 1969, this captures the band firing on all cylinders and in strong fidelity; it's easily the finest document of how this great band sounded on stage.
