Album Reviews
The Bootstrap Boys -- Some Boots
The Bootstrap Boys have never sounded better -- or bleaker -- on their recent album Some Boots. The tension between devil-may-care-defiance and existential angst may just be the molten core that keeps country music rotating.
Fancy Hagood -- BABY JAKE
Fancy Hagood gives us a pleasant, bluegrass-infused surprise with his three-song EP BABY JAKE. Come for the Spice Girls cover, stay for Hagood's breathtaking voice.
CHAPS - In All Directions
In this "bedeviling" collection of ten songs, CHAPS delivers a series of body-altering character studies on his album In All Directions, writes Bee Delores.
Rae Spoon - Assigned Country Singer at Birth
Queer country legend Rae Spoon returns to their genre assigned at birth -- one full of cunning, needle-point songwriting, writes Bee Delores.
Jessye DeSilva -- Glitter Up the Dark
Jessye DeSilva's new album Glitter Up the Dark transmutes queer joy into an immortal dance floor, writes Kate Fishman.
Anjimile -- You're Free to Go
Quietly revolutionary and subtle, Anjimile's latest album You're Free To Go works its way under your skin and into your awareness, writes Richard Marcus.
