As USX enters their third decade as a band, they continue to push their sound into challenging new territory, blending wall- of-sound torrents of guitar, melancholic Appalachian dirge, and experimental electronic textures into a seamless and intense whole.

Planning for Burial is the musical project of American musician and singer-songwriter Thom Wasluck. Based in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, Wasluck started to perform as "Burial" in 2005 and released the debut album, Leaving in 2009. Wasluck plays all instruments during both his home recordings and live performances.

Nightosphere seem to have found themselves at a certain stage in being a band. After several years of playing and performing together, they’ve defined a sound and identity for themselves to stand on. Katabasis, their album from last year, contains the downtrodden slowcore sound fit for many of the wide open, grey expanses found in the Great Plains area.
This though, is enlivened through dark, western sounding flourishes, and an eerie but reassuring etherealness that transudes throughout its runtime. It’s expressive and has a feeling of resolution.-- POST-TRASH
