Bandcamp Friday is here again! This month we’d like to highlight some previously featured guests with new releases that we are either looking forward to or already jamming!
youryoungbody - eXcess
youryoungbody are a duo from Seattle that we interviewed in Michael’s car before their show back in July of 2019. Their new EP eXcess is out today!
Amulets - Blooming
New album from Portland’s own tape master and recent The Flenser signee Amulets! We interviewed Amulets way back in 2018 for Episode 100.
Lingua Ignota - Angus Dei
Brutal Power Violence but also beautifully operatic and symphonic? Lingua Ignota is the master and these pandemic releases have been gems of interstitial content. Check out our interview with Lingua Ignota (also from 2018!)
Lower Tar // Sigsaly Split - L.A.U.R.A 002: Severe Breakaway
Vancouver-based techno duo and warehouse ravers Sigsaly have been one of our favorite bands of the last few years. They were also a joy to interview at a coffee shop in Portland in 2019!
Lota Leona - Slí Chonamara
We had the opportunity to interview Lota Leona right before she moved to Ireland. “Slí Chonamar” is a beautiful piano and field recording standalone track that really captures a time and place for Lota Leona.
Ganser - Look At The Sun
It’s no secret we love Ganser - we’ve had them on the show many times! This new remix album has been a joy to see slowly unfold.
GLAARE - Your Hellbound Heart
No secret, GLAARE is a powerful live band. Their first release was a killer and this new album, which is out in April, is an interesting and exciting shift in sound. We talked to them at a now demolished music venue here in Portland in 2018.
Kanga - You and I Will Never Die
We spoke with Kanga in the basement of the Star Theater here in Portland in 2017 and we thrilled to see a new album announced for 2021!
Emma Ruth Rundle & Thou - The Helm of Sorrow
This is Michael. I’m not going to say I saved the best for last because I am genuinely excited by all the releases on this list, but fuck is this new ERR & Thou EP good. “Hollywood” is such a great track that I can’t believe it. Check it out. We interviewed Thou in a different Portland coffee shop on an early 2018 morning.
