Jefre Cantu-Ledesma :: Gift Songs
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/24/jefre-cantu-ledesma-gift-songs/
Published: March 24, 2025 12:00
For over 20 years across countless releases and contexts Jefre Cantu-Ledesma has been honing in on the liminal space between sound and silence. His new album Gift Songs feels like the most realized version of this concern. In a time when information…
Destroyer :: Dan’s Boogie
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/24/destroyer-dans-boogie/
Published: March 24, 2025 12:00
Over the past decade, Destroyer has shifted seamlessly into middle age. Where restless, lesser artists might have manufactured reinvention narratives or settled into the indie oldies circuit (imagine the money to be made from a Kaputt 15th anniversary…
Estelle Levitt :: All I Dream
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/21/estelle-levitt-all-i-dream/
Published: March 21, 2025 13:00
Bronx-born songwriter Estelle Levitt struck gold in 1968 with “All I Dream,” a slice of psychedelic soul and rustic-tinged funk that grooves with the incantatory cadence of a Lee Hazlewood tune. A stormy platter of unrequited love, Levitt’s silky,…
Videodrome :: Leviathan (1989)
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/21/videodrome-leviathan-1989/
Published: March 21, 2025 12:00
Released in tandem with a plethora of other aquatic-based horror/sci-fi thrillers, George P. Cosmatos’ Leviathan (1989) is a prime example of cinematic micro-trends and the old Hollywood adage, “give us the same, but different.”

Radiohead :: The Bends… at Thirty
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/20/radiohead-the-bends-at-thirty/
Published: March 20, 2025 13:00
This month marks thirty years since the release of Radiohead’s sophomore album, and first masterpiece, The Bends. Threatened with relegation to status as one-hit wonders, the Oxfordshire quintet answered the success of Pablo Honey with an album even more…

Transmissions :: Lonnie Holley
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/19/transmissions-lonnie-holley/
Published: March 19, 2025 12:00
This week on the show, a long awaited return visit from Lonnie Holley. The Atlanta artist joins us alongside his manager, Matt Arnett, son of William Arnett, the Southern art curator and collector who brought Holley to the attention of the art world in the…
Jeffrey Lewis :: The Even More Freewheelin’ Jeffrey Lewis
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/19/jeffrey-lewis-the-even-more-freewheelin-jeffrey-lewis/
Published: March 19, 2025 12:00
It is probably fitting that Jeffrey Lewis’ visual homage to Dylan’s 1963 second album is a bit of a goof. Lewis remakes the iconic cover in much the same way he’s been remaking literate, ironic folk singing for the last several decades —naked and…
Okonski :: Entrance Music
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/18/okonski-entrance-music/
Published: March 18, 2025 13:00
Okonski return with Entrance Music, revealing the flipside of the perpetual afterhours reverie of Magnolia. For their sophomore outing, the trio gently open the curtains to find themselves in the light of a new day, unimpeded by anything that isn’t melody…
Seán Ó Riada :: The Playboy of the Western World
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/17/sean-o-riada-the-playboy-of-the-western-world/
Published: March 18, 2025 02:03
Not quite an original score, though not quite a rehashing of trad-folk mythos, Seán Ó Riada’s The Playboy of the Western World is not your typical soundtrack. Much like the scores of Morricone, Greenwood or even Jack Nitzsche’s for One Flew Over the…
The Cult of Kristofferson
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/17/the-cult-of-kristofferson/
Published: March 17, 2025 13:23
Kris Kristofferson wasn’t a natural fit to become a Hollywood leading man. But in the misfit era of the 1970s, his rough and edgy all-American charm made him the perfect choice for a number of iconoclastic directors. His star may have fallen in the 1980s…
Silver Synthetic :: Rosalie
https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/17/silver-synthetic-rosalie/
Published: March 17, 2025 13:00
From the ballads to the effortless melodic hooks, Silver Synthetic's formula is one permeated with a clear sky buoyancy; an aural antidote of glowing laid-back comfort. Described by label Curation as "the album we have been waiting for", Rosalie is best…

With his fourth album for Blue Note Records, guitarist Nels Cline introduces the Consentrik Quartet: Cline on guitar with saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock, bassist Chris Lightcap, and drummer Tom Rainey on drums. Gathering noir-ish soundscapes, agile jams, and…
