Fox Academy - absent - 2018
light is blinding
i don’t care
i don’t care
absent minded
I’m not there
i’m not there
i wore my mask
today
i play my favorite game
i put my hands over my face
forget my name
Men I Trust - Show Me How - 2018
Show me how you care,
Tell me how you were loved before
Show me how you smile,
Tell me why your hands are cold

Zoe Boekbinder & Dustin Hamman - Among Horses II (2018)
It’s a long and bumpy road to Mas Casanova. The hills are covered with old horses. Grazing, shivering in the cold wind of early winter.
Madison Acid and TV Girl - Maddie Acid's Purple Hearts Club Band (2018)
"What shall I say further? Shall I not stop short and leave to your imaginations to portray the tragic deeds of war? Is it not enough that I here leave it to the unexperienced to fancy the hardships, the anxieties, the dangers, even of the best life of a soldier?
My companions taxed me with presumption and folly, but I was determined, then and always, not to be a coward."
-Deborah Sampson

Her Skin - Find a Place to Sleep (2018)
R In a sweet voice (with a charming accent) Sara Ammendolia delivers her own upbeat tunes accompanied by different instrumental combos. Apparently this is her first full-length album, but don't miss her earlier work.
L. Valerie - Arranged Marriage (2018)
"The material collected here in this short release was half written on the fly, half slowly gathered in my subconscious over several weeks at the end of 2017. Last year was quite the adventure in personal growth for me. The cover I created for this release was collaged out of a sewing manual from the 1960s that the generations before me might have put to its intended purpose.. but I named this record in honor of my independence from old ideas, so here's to a better use." -L. Valerie
Songs of Pat Ament (2018)
In 1971, at the age of 25, Pat Ament self-released his debut album, Songs By Pat Ament, in a very limited run for friends and local shops. The album is sparse and moody, conjuring a space not unlike the one that Songs Of Leonard Cohen occupies, featuring Ament on Wurlitzer with a jazz drummer and a guitarist alternating between acoustic and electric. It’s dark and at times forlorn, with meditations on yearning and loss and love. It’s ideal long-night-of-the-soul music. The lyricism evokes Dylan, Cohen, Tim Hardin and Bill Fay.

Geowulf - Great Big Blue (2018)
Jimmy Moir This is a great indie pop/rock album with a dream pop feel at many times. Very recommended if you like that indie pop style with a hint of dream pop or shoe gaze at times

Lemuria - Recreational Hate (2018)
"Recreational Hate" is, along this avenue, something different. The songs can be traced to a past, present, and future existence of the band, running in every direction, but always coming home to a definitive observational point of reference. "Recreational Hate" is the next book in a fantasy series. It's the surprise 6th act in a never-ending performance. It hints of familiarity in a place where the guidelines have been abandoned, and anything is possible.
