David Berman's down-to-earth and reflective, yet at times comedic lyricism was unlike any other artist. Sonically, the indie rock instrumentation blends well with the country-inspired elements to create an album that feels somber yet oddly reassuring. Thank you for the art you left behind, David Berman. RIP.

The Bats were my first love among New Zealand bands, starting way back in 1987 with their Daddy's Highway album. Still love 'em (excited that they're touring the US in June 2013!). As with the Snapper EP, I didn't know about this one till Flying Nun rereleased it this year. So cool to hear the band in this 1984 recording so young, intent, and freshly in love with making music together.

I've been enjoying the Bats since Daddy's Highway. They keep doing what they do and I keep enjoying what they do. It's great they've stayed together. There are synergies that keep their engaging, coruscating melodic lines from getting stale. Plenty of bands do similar but I've not heard any that elevate it to the level of near-transcendency as the Bats are capable of achieving. While my review may sound pompous, I believe it. The Bats however, continue to sound humble and uplifting and original.

Nick Leng - Drivers (EP)

The deep, dreamy music from this L.A. artist puts the emphasis on his soft, soulful vocals, resulting in low-lit love songs for late nights.
