Great Lakes formed in 1996 in Athens, Georgia, initially aligned with that city’s Elephant 6 collective, but has been based in Brooklyn since 2002. The band’s fifth album, Wild Vision, comes this Friday on the band’s own label, Loose Trucks. For this new album, founding singer-songwriter-guitarist Ben Crum reconvened the same lineup of musicians who… Continue reading Great Lakes at The Big Takeover

Antlered Aunt Lord at Fear and Loathing
Video in motion, prisoners of our own electronic devices, the dull thud of a door closing, and the nervous shudder of one opening create unusual monsters in our imagination. There’s nothing more beautiful than a twenty-four hour establishment, reliable availability is so hard to find in an age of face-time dating and inconsistent suspicion. You… Continue reading Antlered Aunt Lord at Fear and Loathing

Antlered Auntlord at Raised By Gypsies
One of the things which struck me about this sound right away, listening to it from the moment I pressed play, was that Antlered Aunt Lord reminds me a lot of the band Dynamite Hack. I’m not sure whatever happened to Dynamite Hack and, no, I’m not going to look it up though I… Continue reading Antlered Auntlord at Raised By Gypsies
Antlered Auntlord, Bunnygrunt, and Try the Pie at Jersey Beat
Antlered Aunt Lord This has me excited! Why? Back in the late 70s and into the 80s, there was some incredible music being made. There was a veritable explosion of diversity and experimentalism in musical styles in the wake of the disillusionment with arena rock and disco. Punk and hardcore won the day, in the… Continue reading Antlered Auntlord, Bunnygrunt, and Try the Pie at Jersey Beat
