Religious Knives
Religious Knives is Maya Miller, Michael Bernstein and Nate Nelson,
from Brooklyn NY. They spend a lot of their time playing in bands
like
Double Leopards, White Rock and Mouthus, and running labels like
Heavy
Tapes and Our Mouth, all of which have found loving cult audiences
in
the land of record collectors and in-the-know noise cogniscetti.
Previous RK recordings have consisted of free-floating noise
and
lysergic homemade-synthesizer drift. This recent incarnation
of
Religious Knives has been compared to progressive-rock heavies
Goblin
and Popul Vuh (mostly by the band themselves)

Amolvacy
The new album, Ho-Ho-Kus (recorded 1/06), is about having one's
heart wrenched from one's guts and firmly planted in the dirt.
It's also about sprouting new romance, seduction, and a bit about
the Church. And the French. Ho-Ho-Kus presents sticky issues
like love, marriage, sex, affairs, betrayal, and loneliness,
without moral pretense; each song is a release of all associated
grievings. Includes members of Volcano the Bear, No-Neck Blues
Band (NNCK), and the Laboratory Theater Company.

Rahdunes
FROM PORTLAND PAPER~ prophets of the impending music apocolypse
are multiplying like bunny rabbits among them my pick of the
week is san francisco duo RAHDUNES. If the violently abrasive
are the ones howling fire and brimstone from the mass-release
pulpit, then RAHDUNES are meditating in a monastery with a few
cd-r gospels. Within them are slow, reflective builds, eerie
drones, hypnotic throbs, vague tribal rhythms and enough ragged
electricity to remind us again that this is indeed a vision of
the post-music world. It's also a blissful gray you can get behind.
