New Samantha Glass Album is OUT NOW!

OUT NOW - New full length Nine Memories Between Impression & Imprint is Samantha Glass’ culminating effort to define themself thus far. At times delicately wistful and intensely personal, Glass’ emotional tenor is matched by the ingenuity and creativity given to the recording process. Self produced at home, this album embraces experimentation as an elemental part of the writing process. Underwater contact mic recordings share a place alongside warm analog synthesizers as Glass consistently finds ways to incorporate fresh sounds with unorthodox methods of composition. The duality of male to female, spoken to sung and atonal to melodic echoes throughout the albums eight tracks, allowing for satisfying repeat listens and personal connections that go beyond the obvious aesthetics. Nine Memories Between Impression & Imprint surpasses the expectations of long-time fans and recruits the faith of new audiences as Glass reverently embodies an enticing blend of outsider art.

Future Museums Releases Two New Tracks

Founded in 2012, Neil Lord has an impressive catalog of wide ranging solo and collaborative albums under the moniker Future Museums. Lord recorded Rosewater Ceremony Part II: Guardian of Solitude (out October 19, 2018) by himself in 2017 immediately following Rosewater Ceremony (released Feb. 2018) using the same set of gear in his home studio. On this round of inner explorations and mental projections, Lord expands his emotional palette beyond the ubiquitous bliss of the first Rosewater Ceremony to include a dimension of empathetic consciousness. Gently pulsing percussion and bass sequences materialize into tastefully reserved rhythm sections, guiding Lord’s solemn guitar leads through the vast swells of atmospheric strings and shimmering trails of cosmic dust. Future Museums plunges deep into electronics for the Rosewater sessions, embracing drum machine, sampler and analog synthesizer as the primary voice. Future Museums has always forged a uniquely trance-inducing realm of sound manipulation out of a remarkable mix of intuition and technique, and now Lord has expanded his vocabulary both emotionally and tonally while continuing to preserve his essential center.

Single Lash Premieres New Video on Revolver Mag

Single Lash's Nic Nadeau developed his aesthetic for music, fashion and art in early adolescence, which left him at odds with the traditional surroundings of his childhood in suburban San Antonio. The title of Single Lash's debut LP Providence (out October 26, 2018) is a reference to his escape to art college in Rhode Island where he set out to craft his talent for painting and visual art. Nadeau didn't anticipate the intense gravitational allure of the local noise and experimental music scenes which quickly inspired him to start playing guitar and writing songs. Nadeau naturally evolved a texture based approach to guitar, echoing the ubiquitous effects of the post-punk and industrial bands that first piqued his interest in music. Nadeau’s lyrics became the therapeutic outlet to navigate his lifelong feelings of isolation, adopting the moniker Single Lash from the outset. After releasing several solo demo tapes and relocating to Austin, Nadeau expanded Single Lash into a band, recruiting talented multi-instrumentalists such as Neil Lord of Thousand Foot Whale Claw and Future Museums. Single Lash is now fully orchestrated, and Providence is their breakout effort to establish themselves as an important new voice in underground music.

Samantha Glass Premieres New Single on Revolver

Samantha Glass Unveils Two New Tracks

From rural beginnings in the Wisconsin countryside, Samantha Glass spent most of their adult life engrossed in Madison’s noise, power violence and punk DIY scenes. Glass sought to create a balanced form of art representative of their fluid sexuality and gender identity while incorporating elements of darkwave, musique concrète and new age music. Samantha Glass has evolved into an outlet for drag-based performance art coupled with drum machines, cassette loops and down-tempo crooning. Through years of touring and a prolific discography, Glass came to be known beyond the Midwest as one of the most dense and multi-layered projects amongst experimental music spheres. This exploratory essence gives Glass a broad crossover appeal as they narrate a uniquely nuanced perspective on life and art. Now based out of Austin, Samantha Glass untangles their serpentine mind on the ambitious new full length Nine Memories Between Impression & Imprint out October 12, 2018. This week Ms. Glass was nice enough to share two new tracks ahead of the album release date.

Combining slow, methodical hooks and warm tube amplifiers, Grivo’s massive tones artfully re-establish the link between heavy guitars and downtempo pop to yield a potently encompassing experience.
