DESTROYER HAVE WE MET CD/LP

“…Have We Met sets a larger canvas. Produced by bandmate John Collins, the music is sweeping and bold and surprising… It’s his most inviting, embracing record, until suddenly it’s not.” - Pitchfork (Best New Music)

FRANCES QUINLAN LIKEWISE CD/LP/TAPE

“With Likewise, Quinlan has taken everything she learned from leading a rock band and applied it to creating more dynamic compositions, songs that burble and bounce. The sound isn’t too far of a leap from Hop Along’s most recent full-length, Bark Your Head Off, Dog and that means intricate songs with light textures.” - Stereogum

DRIVE-BY TRUCKERS THE UNRAVELING CD/LP

“Four years later, the band doubles down on its Alabama progressivism with The Unraveling, an album whose subjects (the border crisis, mass shootings, the opioid epidemic) are so plainly stated that it can make the hyper-charged American Band feel subtle. Unfiltered fury suits the Truckers well.” - Rolling Stone

WIRE MIND HIVE CD/LP

“Wire were always concerned with making music that "felt" of something: a band who could create strong if initially broad-brush impressions with their sound and message. On Mind Hive. there are gentle, rich and abrasive moments aplenty, and often in harness.” - The Quietus

CHROMATICS CLOSER TO GREY LP

Closer To Grey touches on many of the sounds and feelings that have earned the group such a large following: shoegaze pop, jangly '80s indie rock, shades of Italo. Jewel's flirtations with B-movie horror reappears in the cover artwork and the Goblin-inspired synths of ‘Whisper In The Halls.’“ - Resident Advisor
