ALBUM REVIEW: The Cure – Mixes of a Lost World

Posted on by

The Cure’s Songs of a Lost World was my favorite album of 2024, so hearing it remixed by 24 different artists gave me pause. It’s not the first time Robert Smith has loosened his notoriously tight grip to allow artists to remix his work. With Mixes of Lost World (Fiction Records), it’s obvious Smith was in control of curating who he trusted with these songs. There are the obvious culprits who you almost expect having their hand in a re-mix album like Paul Oakenfold and Oribital, then he handed it over to bands in his close circle like tour-mates The Twilight Sad and Mogwai to not just prep the songs for the dance floor but applied their instruments into their reworkings which were both very true to the creative spirt of the band. Continue reading →


ALBUM REVIEW: Knives – Glitter

You never know how Nu-Metal is going to resurface. Your best bet is that it won’t show up to the party in Adidas with b-boy swagger. Knives prove this on their album Glitter (Marshall Records). Just when you thought Bristol was just the home of trip-hop, these kids who self-identify as a noise-rock band, kick in the door with punchy rapped vocals, they slam again an often dissonant eruption of angular riffs. Somehow this all manages to for my mishappen groove.  of guitar clanging in a misshapen groove. “I Hope You Get It” finds a hint of hard-core haunting their musical DNA, which is nothing new for nu-metal, as Korn and Deftones toured with the likes of Biohazard, Sick of it All, Glassjaw, and Thrice, in their early days.  Continue reading →
