WITCH :: Sogolo aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/09/30/w... The jittery Sogolo defies the expectations of those who might have hoped for a more faithful reconstruction of the band’s early days, opting instead to traverse the realms of reggae, freak-folk, desert blues and more.

“In abrupt, percussive volleys of strumming and picking, Bishop stakes out a claim on the mystic yearnings of Takoma-style picking, inspired, as the title implies, equally by Appalachia and the sub-continent.” Sir Richard Bishop’s latest at @aquariumdrunkard.com aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/09/25/s...

Bandcamping :: Autumn 2025 aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/09/24/b... The best season? Yeah, maybe. Emily Brontë knew: “Every leaf speaks bliss to me / Fluttering from the autumn tree.” So as the day shorten and shadows lengthen, take some time to check out some recent/recommended tunes.

Greg Freeman :: Burnover aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/09/22/g... Burnover’s songs follow knotty, Americana rhythms spiked with drumbeats, stabbed through with sharp-edged guitars. They’re banged up but defiant about it, blistered with feedback and vibrating with reedy, pleading choruses.

Mal Waldron :: Candy Girl aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/09/22/m... A rare 1975 Mal Waldron session with the Lafayette Afro Rock Band finally gets a proper reissue, clarifying some of the album’s many mysteries and deepening its still-ambiguous message.

Lagniappe Sessions :: Jeffrey Alexander aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/09/19/l... Supremely stoned and drifting takes on classics by Harry Nilsson, Horace Silver and Salome Bey, The Smiths, and Mike Williams. Liquid drips of guitar, percussion, and Alexander’s craggy Neil Young-ish folk abound.
