Cranked up and crawling out of the feedback: Wooden Crates' Debut Demos EP captures the loud, rough DIY garage punk origins of this Anchorage band — from lower-class uprising to wartime farewells — while "In My Head" delivers a crunchy punk gut-punch about political divides turning into moral ones you can't ignore. The Darts' Rock Symphony Bang muses on making the perfect album with wry self-awareness. ♱ Lilith ♱'s Nevermore's Shadow closes with a reverb-drenched gothic rock/grunge fusion born from Edgar Allan Poe's haunting raven.
