Guillermo Guevara and Gabriel Acevedo's second album of scaled-back electronic beats shows a healthy disregard for conventional structure. Some of the songs might be a little too erratic to be able to dance to straight through, but they have plenty of sections that engage the head just as equally as the body.
Hubcap City (FB) is a five-piece ensemble that features among others Bill Taft of Smoke and Will Fratesi, who has played in both Tenement Halls and Cat Power. Recorded in tunnels, under bridges, and in cemeteries around Atlanta, this shambling album unfortunately doesn't live up to its intriguing promise.

There is something to be said for Michigan and scuzz rock. Of course there is the obvious MC5 and Stooges, and the more recent Wolf Eyes, and then there's this odd little 7" single.
This cheerful neon green 3” CD-R comes packaged in a cute mini DVD case with a handmade card inside; all told it is an adorable little release. I feel like a giant when I pick it up but I feel a lot smaller when I get over the size of it and actually listen to the disc. Large quantities of lush, velvety sounds are packed into this tiny CD. It is easy to put it on and fall back into a comfy chair for the few minutes this lasts.
