In a musical landscape often dominated by fleeting trends, The Bolshoi Brothers‘ self-titled debut album emerges as a refreshing anomaly. Released on March 21, 2025, via Electronic Music Records, this project reunites Trevor Tanner (vocals and guitar) and Paul Clark (keyboards), former members of the 1980s new wave band The Bolshoi. Conceived during the COVID lockdown with Tanner in Florida and Clark in Seattle, the album’s remote creation infuses it with an intimate, almost spectral quality.
Fans have paid artists $1.57 billion using Bandcamp.
On select Fridays throughout the year, Bandcamp waives its share of sales for 24 hours, giving fans an opportunity to support the artist they love more directly.
Here are some of my recommendations:
Significant changes are coming to global tariffs (import taxes imposed by the government) that may impact how packages enter the United States.
In practice, this means fees may be applied to some types of merchandise on US-bound shipments.
Also, several international postal carriers are temporarily suspending delivery to the US. These restrictions do not come from the artists or labels but from global carriers.
Remember, that while some artists and labels may suspend shipments to the US, you can always support them directly by purchasing digital music.
It doesn’t matter if your vinyl order is domestic and only traveling 50 miles. Always opt for insurance!
After the Snow (original cover)[/caption]Released in May 1982 on 4AD Records, After the Snow marked a pivotal evolution for Modern English, the Colchester-based post-punk outfit. Following their abrasive debut Mesh & Lace (1981), this sophomore effort softened the edges, embracing melodic new wave sensibilities while retaining a shadowy, introspective core.
Produced by Hugh Jones, the album’s eight tracks clock in at just over 30 minutes, blending driving rhythms, atmospheric keyboards, and Robbie Grey‘s haunting vocals into a cohesive, if occasionally eccentric, soundscape.
