Read MoreArtist Home Premiere: “Loser” by Killer Workout

You can also color Artist…

Read MoreArtist Home Exclusive Premiere: “Machete (Song for Jackson)” by ARCHIE
When I discover an amazing record, I’m prone to want to deep-dive. Immediately after immersing myself in it, I try to capture in words why the hell said record is worth someone’s time. In the end, that’s exactly what most music writing comes down to. Sometimes, though, that kind of dissection is the rock-writer equivalent…
Read MoreArtist Home Premiere: “Fitcher’s Bird” by Skeleton Flower
For 20 years now, Seattle’s Degenerate Art Ensemble has created performance pieces that combine modern dance, Butoh theatrics, avant-garde free-jazz-tinted music, kinetic sculpture, and experimental video.
