The Revolting Cocks
The Revolting Cocks Sex-O Olympic-O [4/5]
Al Jourgensen claims that Sex-O Olympic-O is the best album he’s ever made with any of his projects. Whether it is indeed a better record than Ministry’s Psalm 69 is arguable, but Sex-O is certainly the most satisfying album he’s produced with RevCo. It’s little wonder that Jourgensen is...
MSTRKRFT
MSTRKRFT Fist Of God [4/5]
MSTRKRFT’s second album, Fist Of God, raises the bar for modern electro-dance acts. Shorter song lengths and streamlined songwriting compress the pair’s energy into compact club bangers.

Broken Spindles

Joel Petersen is best known for being guitarist, bassist and sometimes-producer in art-rock band the Faint, but the Omaha, Nebraska, musician also has been crafting eccentric electro-indie-rock albums as Broken Spindles since 2001. kiss/kick continues the sparse, peculiar style Petersen has formulated-and nearly perfected-on prior releases, most of which came out...
The Takeover UK
The Takeover UK Running With The Wasters [4/5]
Pittsburgh-based rockers the Takeover UK don’t waste any time living up to the country they’ve tacked onto the end of their band name. They swagger in with horns and handclaps while frontman Nic Snyder slurs his way through, “My backseat was made for you, if only for...
