January 10, 2025

Haven’t got myself together to do this recently, so here’s a catch-up.

• Snowbeasts - The Snow 2025 - https://snowbeasts.bandcamp.com/album/the-snow: A freebie from GetMusic - an industrial techno cover of Coil’s haunted 1991 track. I’ll be exploring what Snowbeasts do more.
• Shirley and the Pyramids - Maid of Time - https://surelyicomequickly.bandcamp.com/album/maid-of-time: Also a GetMusic freebie - fourth LP from Saskatoon, Canada psych/shoegazers with a great early 90s sound, pointers Thee Telescopes, post-feedback Jesus and Mary Chain and Loop.
• Ian Cat - Paint the Stars Tonight - https://iancat.bandcamp.com/album/paint-the-stars-tonight Another GetMusic freebie - long form looping guitar ambience in the style of Frippertronics, something I’m always up for.
