<p>Forget Black Friday — the late November edition of Record Store Day must have arrived early, because the must-have Boston vinyl of 2022 dropped last weekend (October 28). North Carolina label Yep Roc Records pays homage to one of Boston’s most storied record shops with The Skippy White Story: Boston Soul 1961-1967, a new compilation that strings together the story of sixties soul music and the shop that helped it thrive. The 15-track record exhumes and honors Skippy White’s layered […]</p>

<p>When we last caught up with MARBLES back in July, we marveled at the Norwegian band’s effortless ability to provide some dream-pop escapism to our summer soundtrack. The seasons have changed, and so have we, and as we approach winter and all its calm, detached wonder, the foursome from Norway’s black metal capital of Kolbotn have unveiled a warm and inviting new single out today (November 3) titled “World Inside Me.” There’s a dose of psych-pop floating through the introspective […]</p>

<p>Beth Orton was finished with music not too long ago. This wasn’t set in stone, mind you, and there was no big proclamation that the singer/songwriter known for blending strong folk sensibilities with electronic overtures called it a day. Life happened though, and the stretches between full lengths became more spacious. Orton had battled a myriad of chronic medical maladies complex enough that they were misdiagnosed, stretching out the amount of time it took to receive proper treatment. There were […]</p>

<p>When we last caught up with Silversun Pickups, the Los Angeles band was readying the release of Physical Thrills, their Butch Vig-produced sixth studio album that dropped in August after first capturing our attention with a stomping new track called “Scared Together.” It gave us all sorts of Carnavas vibes, and reminded us why we first fell in love with these cats all those years ago. At that time a tour was promised, but not detailed, and turns out the Boston […]</p>
