Hyllade Bror Gunnar Janssons senaste skivsläpp är hans tyngsta och hårdaste hittills. Men, paradoxalt nog, också det mest smäktande vackra. Likt en svit rör sig albumet från känslosamma stråkpartier till tunga riff, och ibland uppstår tillfällen då allt verkar vilja spricka sönder. <br/>Med sitt nya album Faceless Evil, Nameless Fear berättar Bror Gunnar historier om bestialiska mord, sjukdom och konsekvenserna av korrupta polisers handlingar (bland andra finns Kapten Klänning och George Floyd med). Men också om stark och oförstörd kärlek. Han pendlar mellan allas vår verklighet och sitt eget mörka universum. Musiken, som är mindre blues än tidigare, andas post-grunge, stoner och post-blues på ett sätt som för tankarna till White Stripes, Kyuss och Jimi Hendrix.

The newest album from Rhiannon Giddens', You're the One is her third solo studio album and her first of all original songs. This collection of 12 songs written over the course of Giddens' career bursts with life-affirming energy, drawing from the folk music that she knows so deeply, as well as its pop descendants. Produced by Jack Splash (Solange, Alicia Keys, Valerie June), You're the One features some of Giddens' closest musical collaborators from the past decade, including multi-instrumentalists Francesco Turrisi and Dirk Powell, bassist Jason Sypher, and Congolese guitarist Niwel Tsumbu. The album features electric and upright bass, conga, Cajun and Piano accordions, guitars, a Western string section, and Miami horns, among other instruments, capturing the inclusive spirit that channels through all of her work. <br/><br/>"I hope that people just hear American music," Giddens says. "Blues, jazz, Cajun, country, gospel, and rock-it's all there. I like to be where it meets organically. They're fun songs, and I wanted them to have as much of a chance as they could to reach people who might dig them but don't know anything about what I do. If they're introduced to me through this record, they might go listen to other music I've made with a different set of ears."
