I love the smell of burning bridges

Carla Bozulich is becoming not only synonymous with true avant-garde but a real staple of quality. Her previous albums, under the moniker Evangelista, were shiny gems and the new album, though taking a different turn and style, is a fine example of how swimming against the current gets you to the right place.

Starscream of consciousness

While the movie is not so impressive, the soundtrack sure is. Bruce peninsula have made their transition into the big league with this collection of gospel-death-ballads. While the movei tries to combine the Coen bros. and Debra Granik, the OST takes inspiration from Coen's Brother where art though and mix it with some Nick Cave murder ballads. The result is stunning.
