(Dead Oceans)

The third album by Bowerbirds almost didn’t happen. The duo, Phil Moore and Beth Tacular broke up for about a year putting the band behind them; during this time Beth was faced with a life threatening illness. The Clearing, is a reconnection of love between the couple and a testament of their incredible chemistry as a band. The result is a beautifully constructed and perfectly produced album, with gentle yet catchy melodies and unique instrumentation. Songs about love, life, and nature fill the album from front to finish. Eleven tracks and 46 minutes later you will find yourself playing this album over again, and again. Each listen makes The Clearing more wonderful than the last. Although every track is amazing, songs like ‘Tuck the Darkness In’, ‘In the Yard’, ‘This Year’ and ‘Sweet Moment’ make this album impossible to put down. The Clearing, by Bowerbirds comes out March 6th.

Main Attrakionz 808s & Dark Grapes II LP

(Type Recordings)

This is the second properly hip-hop release from Type (first being Clams Casino). It is the first that relies heavily on actual rapping (Clams = beats). I wouldn’t say it relies extraordinarily heavily on the verses as the beats are pretty exceptional by some pretty exciting names in the upcoming hip-hop producing realm (Squadda B, Friendzone, Silky Johnson, NoaBoa, and Clams Casino himself and a bunch more actually). This also includes a lot of stuff that encompasses my new favorite music phrase: chillbient. Get chill and rock.

Sleigh Bells Reign of Terror CD/LP

 

I was a little skeptical at first: after all, Sleigh Bells’ 2010 record Treats seemed pretty one-of-a-kind with its abrasive-and-sweet mix of breathy vocals, distorted guitar, and megaton beats that truly put speakers to the test. Here, they haven’t strayed too far from their signature brand of bulked-up noise pop: the vocals remain hypnotic, the guitar still burns, and the beats pack the same physical punch. However, they’ve adopted a greater focus on melody, so while the blasting from the last album is still clearly present and accounted for, there’s nothing as bracingly extreme as the exploding “Crown on the Ground” or clobbering “Straight A’s.” On Reign of Terror, standout tracks like “Born To Lose” and “Comeback Kid” rely on intense yet head-bobbingly infectious rhythm (complete with pep-talk vocals) that help convey the exhilaration of being at a sporting event where everyone can feel the speakers’ bass. The duo captures said feeling the best on the chant-laden “Crush,” complete a beat that was created by friends stomping on bleachers in a gymnasium.  Toward the end, the guitar riffs on tracks like the hot-on-the-ears “Demons” incorporate a classic metal sound (a personal favorite of mine, “Never Say Die,” creatively mixes a simple, endlessly looping riff with a gorgeous, glassy-sounding 3-note descent to construct a very intoxicating sound.) I’m happy that Sleigh Bells managed to prove that they’re not a one-album curiosity. They’ve got an excellent grip on their sound, and they managed to keep it interesting without sounding stale, while also innovating without changing their sound too much.
