The Seasons EPs Vol. 1: Winter Blitz
by Coed Pageant
Raw, tense, and intensely pretty, the first of Coed Pageant's four Seasons EPs is as cold as the months it's named for, but leaves your ears warm with melancholy. The sound of winter in the midwest.

Slush is a collage of gorgeous contrasts: electric riffs waver over the polished vocal surface; harmonies whisper under crashing metal. Big Hush sings sympathy to a city changing under its own feet.

If I don't come home you'll know I'm gone.
by The Wooden Sky
This heavy 2009 album from The Wooden Sky is as lyrically full as it is atmospheric. Delicate harmonies and careful synth hold together a web of everything rustic and wise. Listen closely.
