Why Bother? - Beyond Step One (Feel It Records) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Shop our Big Takeover store for back issues, t-shirts & CDs Shop our Big Takeover store for back issues, t-shirts & CDs Why Bother? have always sounded as though somebody left a punk record playing while the walls of reality quietly moved a few inches. On ‘Beyond Step One,’ that sensation becomes the governing aesthetic. The Iowa collective returns from its period of cosmic silence with eighteen pieces that swing between compact punk detonations, garage-rock hooks, surf-inflected guitar, new-wav

Shop our Big Takeover store for back issues, t-shirts & CDs Shop our Big Takeover store for back issues, t-shirts & CDs ‘10 songs created in the attic’ by the mysterious Japanese project Attic Room (courtesy of solo artist Kondo), is a record built for the wee hours of the night when the outside world goes quiet and a single room is large enough to hold every stray thought.

The album arrives after the end of Sarah Shook & the Disarmers, a band whose decade-long existence had given River Shook a recognizable artistic identity, and the new record carries the strange exhilaration that can follow the collapse of something once thought permanent
Soft Science - Sand (Shelflife Records / Spinout Nuggets) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Shop our Big Takeover store for back issues, t-shirts & CDs Shop our Big Takeover store for back issues, t-shirts & CDs Soft Science has always understood that beauty need not be serene. On ‘Sand’, the Northern California quintet turns that conviction into its most expansive statement yet, making an album in which luminous melodies are continually shadowed by uncertainty.
