IGUANA DEATH CULT – NUDE CASINO
With a band name like Iguana Death Cult, how could you not be intrigued? Their latest album is called Nude Casino.
According the the Dutch band’s bandcamp page:
Nude Casino sporadically evokes Iguana Death Cult’s more hedonistic tendencies, but the album’s crisper, more unvarnished sonic makeup illustrates a seething skepticism as a counterbalance… Like The Clash and Minutemen before them, Iguana Death Cult have embraced the art of rocking the f*ck out with all senses and impulses up to eleven. Rapturously sinking in their claws, and never letting go.
JINJER – MACRO
Unkranian heavy metal band Jinjger have returned with Macro; their first new album in 3 years.
N.E.R.D – IN SEARCH OF… REISSUE
