Folk music

From dusty archives and shifting ground: Dino DiMuro finally unleashes ELMWOOD, a "head-trippy excursion" concept album pulled from the shelf after 20 years of exile. Wholesale Angel Market explores desolation, redemption, and "the animal instincts that lurk in the far corner of our rooms" on their haunting debut. Kathodos conjures dark ritual chants, while Jack Hayter returns with what Pitchfork calls "one of the weariest, most world-beaten voices around" — Tom Waits meets a secondhand music shop. l'anarchiste heureux unearths a lost 1977 chanson française album where a flat tire becomes a meditation on freedom.
