Sensor Ghost is a no-wave art-punk trio from Washington, DC. The band’s spiky songs leave listeners in a discombobulated trance. Former/current projects include Puff Pieces, Antelope, Weed Tree, Light Beams, The Cornel West Theory, Vertebrates, Stigmatics, and Impetus Inter. The band’s self-titled 3-song EP, recorded with Ian MacKaye and Don Zientara at Inner Ear Studios, is out now on Dischord/Lovitt Records.
Western Massachusetts band Landowner lay abrasively clean minimalist-punk. Singer Dan Shaw defined Landowner's sound as a drum-machine driven solo project on the Impressive Almanac cassette in 2016, and when the full band came together in 2017, the group made a deliberate effort to preserve that sound while playing live. The result, so far, has been four LPs released on Born Yesterday Records. Landowner's music is built from its own unique set of blueprints, in which clean tones, abrasive minimalism, and caricatured hardcore make space for lyrics that reflect on the global systems our lives are tangled in and the dark absurdities we take for granted.
Drawn is a new band. Crossing state lines, among others. Nenet on vocals, Nate Scheible on drums, Layne Garrett on guitar.
