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.

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.

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.

End of Tunes
by Friends Below Zero
The cool and wacky home recorded indie rock on this unearthed 90s gem is full of scrappy, lo-fi charm.
