math rock

Here’s an alternative start to the week, a smorgasbord, no a storm of wild styles by two master musicians, the prolific guitarist Keiji Haino and Ruins drummer Yoshida Tatsuya. Released on Tzadik “Uhrfasudhasdd” is the follow up to New Rap and it’s only for experienced noise/improv heads.

“Kaleidoscopic Equinox”, the first proper studio LP from Motion Turns it On is scheduled to be released February 2010 on Chocolate Lab Records. Explosive Math-Post Rock & Jazz from the genre’s Motherland, Chicago.

Cuneiform never fails to impress us with a steady supply of brilliant albums. Here’s a new album, by the band that I still haven’t been able to pronounce correctly : Ahleuchatistas. The North Carolina power trio belongs to the increasing number of brilliant progressive math rock albums that I’ve been listening to this year, full of odd times, shifting rhythms, janglnig guitars and other extremities.
