Essential Full-Length Releases

Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton - Choir of the Mind Emily Haines is a member of Broken Social Scene, a band with a strong release showing in 2017.

The Jet Age of Tomorrow - God’s Poop or Clouds? I don't know if the Odd Future gang is really a thing anymore, but some of the subgroups created within it are still going strong.

Listen: "The Long Way Home" (featuring Syd) Listen: "The Jaunt"

Myrkur - Mareridt Many areas are male dominated, black metal is no different. Myrkur is one of a few female artists in the genre, which inevitably has led to abuse from insecure men in the black metal community (the world is terrible).
