“Post-punk” Reviews

The Scottish band’s sixth album is their most cathartic and triumphant work yet, featuring ten songs that explore grief, loss, and mental illness.

The Moscow-based post-punk/shoegaze outfit exits the stage in fine style with their final album.

The new solo project from Writ on Water’s frontman is an abundance of darkly atmospheric dream pop and post-punk.

Darkwave outfit Creux Lies aren’t afraid to wear their influences or emotions on their sleeves, which is a very good thing.

The Chrindie classic was originally released back in 1991 by Blonde Vinyl Records.

The Danish trio’s latest album is a perfectly bleak blend of razor-sharp post-punk and chilly synth-pop.

The band’s 1987 magnum opus is a dark, haunting album that still captivates after more than three decades.

If you’re a fan of ethereal guitars, icy synths, Cure-ish basslines, and haunting vocals, then this is your new favorite EP.

For fans of thoughtful, atmospheric indie-rock, Starsabout’s debut full-length is the real deal.

It’s easy to let yourself get swallowed up by the trio’s dark, chilly music.

Yes, this Minnesota quintet sounds a LOT like Joy Division but their self-assured music ultimately transcends such easy comparisons.

Winter Severity Index lives up to its name with iced-over synths, brittle guitars, crushed rhythms, and androgynous vocals.

Without a doubt, the most ambitious mewithoutYou album to date, by any standard, but also the most troubling.

It should come as no shock that A Wingless King, the group’s newest full-length, sounds somewhat like a musical artifact unstuck in time.

Plumerai are clearly heading in the right direction with their sound.

Brother, Sister is a perfect encapsulation of everything that’s both good and bad about mewithoutYou’s music.

Though not without its flaws, this EP is proof that Plumerai have things figured pretty well out.

I was completely unaware that I needed a good Christmas album this year and yet this album has filled that niche quite nicely.

It’ll be interesting to see how this disc holds up in a month, 6 months, a year.

One of those albums that reminds you of all of your favorite bands and yet still sounds unique.
