Farmers Wife
Farmer's Wife lives within a nightmarish fairy tale on their debut EP. In five tracks, Molly Masson eschews all notions of idyllic, childlike fantasy, and especially femininity. "Bet you didn't know I really have horns in this fairy tale," she sings in "Swarm" before trilling, "You aren't ready for the reality of a cold-blooded female." Elsewhere, "Goldiloxxx" sharpens the fable with a bear attack scene and a circle-pit-inducing "just right, just right, just right" chorus. Atmospheric production and superfluous reverb emphasize the collection's spooky quality, but real rockers should catch the band live to hear those riffs in all their glory.

Christian Bland & The Revelators
Christian Bland and The Revelators are a frequent presence on the Hotel Vegas/13th Floor circuit, and The UFO Club, Bland’s guitar-focused collab with Night Beats‘ Lee Blackwell, melds ’50s rock vibes into ’60s Pink Floyd-era psych trips. Christian is best known as the guitarist for The Black Angels. His solo project, Christian Bland and The Revelators highlights his signature sound and contributions to one of modern psychedelic rock's biggest bands, while providing an open canvas to explore different ideas and influences.
