• Solar Bears

  She Was Coloured In

  Planet Mu

  Hailing from Ireland--Wicklow and Dublin to be precise--Solar Bears are John Kowalski and Rian Trench, the sole producers and musicians on the group's debut full-length, She Was Coloured In. They met at Pulse Sound Engineering School, started recording and were swiftly picked up by Planet Mu. This album follows in the wake of expectation stirred up by their recent Inner Sunshine EP and a series of remixes.

• Optimum

  Max Power

  Planet Mu

  Optimum is Malcolm Chen, a new producer from South West London. He's collaborated with Ikonika recently, and Planet Mu is very happy to release his first solo 12-inch. Lead track "Max Power" lives up to its name, mixing tight electro-soca drums with a barrage of ravey riffs and strange transporting noises, creating an almost unbearable, driving intensity without ever reaching for wobbly bass or other cliches.

• Rose, Frankie And The Outs

  S/t

  Slumberland

  Frankie Rose has a reputation for minimal, Maureen Tucker-like beats and iconic presence in such buzz-stirring bands as Crystal Stilts, Dum Dum Girls and Vivian Girls--groups that spearheaded a thriving scene that mixes the sounds of lo-fi garage and big, reverb-drenched, Phil Spector-produced '60s girl groups with the noise aesthetic of The Jesus and Mary Chain, a touch of Velvet Underground and a strong DIY ethic.

• U.s. Christmas

  Run Thick In The Night

  Neurot Recordings

  Hailing from the Appalachian mountains region of western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee, US Christmas's unique brand of psychedelic, high-volume blues rock evades easy classification. The band was founded in Marion, NC, in the summer of 2002, and played biker bars, art spaces and house shows all over the Southeast dirt circuit for years, self-releasing albums in CDR form.

• La Otracina

  Reality Has Got To Die

  Holy Mountain

  Since 2003, La Otracina has been hell-bent on creating highly visionary music that melds sonic ideas from the outer reaches of heavy and weird. The Brooklyn group has released three full-length albums and twelve mini-albums, along with a slew of splits and compilation trackss on labels including Holy Mountain and band founder Adam Kriney's own Colour Sounds Recordings.

• Sole / Ravi Zupa

  Pyre

  Black Canyon

  The Pyre is a collaboration between Tim Holland and Ravi Zupa--a 72-page illustrated epic poem with an accompanying full-length "audiobook" album. The pair evokes the confusion, violence and hope of 12,000 years spent digging in the mud. Holland's far-reaching story of civilization is told in the language of ancient myth and draws on Keats, Villon, Debord, Byron and The Epic of Gilgamesh.

• Munly And The Lupercalians

  Petr And The Wulf

  Alternative Tentacles

  The first installment in a multi-album set describing The Kinnery of Lupercalia, Petr & The Wulf is the correct telling of a story about which most have been woefully misinformed. This truth is courtesy of Munly (known as both a solo artist and as the co-frontman of Slim Cessna's Auto Club) and his extremely talented backing band, The Lupercalians (which includes Daniel Grandbois of Slim Cessna's Auto Club and Tarantella).

• Dawnbringer

  Nucleus

  Profound Lore

  Chicago's Dawnbringer could very well be the most under-appreciated underground metal band in the US. Formed more than 15 years ago by prolific multi-instrumentalist Chris Black (also of Nachtmystium and a number of other projects), the group put out an EP and two killer and highly praised full-lengths in the late '90s and early '00s.

• Shit Robot

  From The Cradle To The Rave

  Dfa

  To list the ways Marcus Lambkin, a.k.a. Shit Robot, spent the '90s and early '00s is to document some of New York City's most seminal moments in music. After moving to the city in 1992 from his native Dublin, Ireland, Lambkin served a stint as a resident DJ at the infamous club Save the Robots, co-founded Plant Records and the now-defunct Plant Bar (where The Rapture's Luke Jenner poured drinks and which UK magazine The Face called "New York's coolest and loudest bar"), used his cabinet-making skills to literally help build the DFA studio, and DJed the legendary Shit Robot parties with future LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy.

• Nobunny

  First Blood

  Goner

  Hail! Hail! America's favorite loopily leporine rock 'n' roller, Nobunny, is back with a new album, First Blood, and it's his catchiest batch of tunes yet. The melodious masked man kicks it off with "Ain't It a Shame," a bittersweet tale of a rocky romance in which Nobunny's lover has no choice but to endure his frequent indiscretions.
