about

things falling apart De Kalb, Illinois

the sound of old tube amps humming like angels, buzzing helicopter tremolo dancing with rickety strings, drifting analog delay, and antiquated brass bursts of joy.

Lonesome Flotsam
by Fingers Lift

brandon from tfa made this record under his "fingers lift" moniker. a lovely pastoral collection of ghost songs that will leave you humming the tunes despite their lovecraftian origins. things falling apart

Ohm
by This Specific Dream

our wisconsin bretheren, sadly no more. this was their second album, a behemoth and an epic slab of cranked tube-amps and the greatest riffs to come out the midwest in a long, long time. truly fine. things falling apart

LSD & Heartache
by The Falbonauts

the best album by a cover band that isn't a cover band. glorious, fractured pop/rock that isn't so much from a different time but a different space. things falling apart
