Sculptress New York, New York
Sculptress is the duo project of Charlie Looker (Psalm Zero, ex-Extra Life) and Chuck Stern (STERN, ex-Time of Orchids). They only released one two-song maxi-single in 2011, but there might always be more...

Secular Works, Vol. 2

Brilliant union of early music and rock. Strong Cardiacs vibes. I find a lot of chamber rock to be meandering and aimlessly angular. However this stuff is different, the compositions are extremely tight and diverse. The instrumentation is sparse and rickety, but has these brilliant flashes of grandiose orchestration, it's very balanced. I don't think I've heard a more successful integration of early music into modern forms before. Absolutely a modern masterpiece of progressive "weird" music.

Hells yeah, major "Made Flesh" vibes off of the first two tracks. Always here for for a Badalamenti/Lynch reference. Thanks for making quarantine a little more bearable

This album not weird so much as unique. Channeling post-punk, industrial, and jagged metallic elements, Psalm Zero wields a broad palate in their musical endeavours. The use of occasional harsh vocals breaks up tracks in unexpected ways. Each songs springs forward with a melodic drive that counters it's metal basis.

Disturbing Dreams
by The Kartetch
Knotty alt-rock with corkscrewing guitars and steely vocals on an album that packs a punch.

Cruel Optimism
by NATURAL VELVET
Dreamy indie pop bent with just a bit of dissonance hits all the right notes and all the wrong ones.

Delaware artist Rew brings the lo-fi shoegaze vibes on their latest album, with buzzing riffs and drifting, dreamlike vocal melodies.

Everything from entitlement to black votive is incredibly strong dark prog and this is no exception. Incredible stuff, each release builds on each other but occupies different sound palettes. A terrible loss, RIP.
