the flenser

We unveil a new single from the upcoming Botanist album "Photosynthesis" and chat with project mastermind Otrebor about the new release in context with a storied career in hammered-dulcimer black (or green?) metal.

This black metal duo broke the mold altogether, weaving jazz, blues, and more into their latest release "Come and See" -- the album's tense timbre draws inspiration from the difficult realities of life in American public housing.

We exchanged with Dan Barrett and Tim Macuga of the emotive, shoegazing project Have a Nice Life whose latest full-length "Sea of Worry" hits shelves tomorrow.
