Experimental, with wide-ranging dynamics and methods. They use echoes and keyboard blips to induce a trance-like otherworld of sonic awareness. |

The Eastern Stars |
|
| |
This has a stripped down folk aesthetic with some experimental sounds put in. It can be very sparse at times, with the guitar barely clinging to the drums, a loose vocal track placed on top of that. |

Juana Molina |

It's electronic folk, taking organic folk roots and combining them with synthetic electronic sounds. |

The High Violets |
|
| |
These are kids who, much to our benefit, got obsessed with My Bloody Valentine, Ride, and the Cocteau Twins and can’t let go of it. |

Experimental sounds alongside pop hooks. The result is songs that weave between styles, almost sounding like songs within songs. |

Built To Spill |
|
| |
A majestic slow tempo piece with some of the best lyrics on the new album. That’s the thing with Doug Martsch, often times his guitar speaks louder than he does and he doesn’t get credit for his prose. |

Sunset Rubdown |
|
| |
The new band with Spencer Krug from Wolf Parade. It's all pianos and guitars and catharsis, working you over until no part of you is left unaltered. It's lo-fi and big and bombastic at the same time. |

Irving |
|

Sometimes Irving lean towards psychedelic, sometimes new wave, sometimes indie rock, sometimes pop, always experimenting. That's life in the modern age for you, complex and complicated, where nothing is as literal as
it seems. |

The Fiery Furnaces |
|
| |
There's lots of notes and sounds and blips. It's very keyboard-centric. And the deep bass is nice. It's cool how such organic music can have such deep and moving bass in the drums. |

Helvetia play the tribal lo-fi anthems of outer space to infintity. The music is a combination of an otherworldly dreamscape with its feet firmly planted on the ground. |

Margot & The Nuclear So and So's |
|
| |
Emerging from the gray and dark winter of the Midwest, Margot and the Nuclear So and So's have both the explosivesness and passivity that can be so common to this part of the country. The interesting part is that they have both. It's like Ryan Adams having periodic freakouts. Courtesy of Artemis Records |

Straight-forward, honest and real. It's hard not to like this music because it's so very right in front of you at every moment. It's dry and indie rock and a little lo-fi. |

This is a year or two old, but interesting. It's like a hyperactive Devo cult picking up where Devo left off and adding some new wave keyboards. |
