A PLACE TO BURY STRANGERS - Rare and Deadly (2026)

 

Just released beginning of April. It's a new release of mostly previously unheard songs recorded between 2015 - 2025. Technically it's not their new album of the band from New York but it works like an album.

The wall-sound of A Place to Bury Strangers cannot leave indifferent who, in the '80s, loved Jesus and Mary Chain and that sound.

On the Bandcamp page of the group, the album is very well summarized "This collection of B-sides, abandoned experiments, and forgotten fragments reveals the band at their most unfiltered-caught between breaktrough ideas and beautiful mistakes "

WIDOWSPEAK - Plum (2020)

 Widowspeak is a duo based in New York (from Takoma) that propose a kind of music with several influences (indie-dream pop- folk-psychedelic-shoegaze).  They start the activity around 2010 and at a first listening immediately they remember me the anglo-canadian duo of Still Corner. If you appreciate one probably you also like the other and viceversa.

Plum is an album from 2020 and probably my favourite of the several works they released.
