The Bronx Duo Bringing Perreo to the Mosh Pit
Plus: A Spider-Man-inspired rapper building his own superhero persona, an exploration in the freaky tunings of nature, and more.
Welcome to the latest installment of Five Albums, the weekly feature for paid Hearing Things subscribers in which we discuss a handful of new records catching our attention. As music journalists, the question we get most often from friends is how to stay on top of what’s happening now. This is our attempt to provide a practical answer.
This week, we’ve got a pair of Uptown heroes bashing barriers between punk and perreo, a real superhero-adjacent rapper's debut, a tragic and intimate new songwriter album, and so much more. Plus, Andy is teaching us about different kinds of musical tunings, in an album review that is both fascinating and highly informative. We seek to edutain you!
