Music of the Month: March 2018

Album of the Month:
Preoccupations - New Material (Jagjaguwar) - Released March 23rd

All throughout New Material, Preoccupations create cold and dark melodies through intricate synth work and gothic guitar-play. The industrial influence and production is evident on each song, specifically through the looping drum patterns and bass lines. New Material is a great follow-up to their self-titled debut, adding another album do an already solid discography.
