While Phasor feels loose and expansive, it's Lange's tightest collection-deep, atmospheric, meticulously executed. It's aligned with 2019's This Is How You Smile, which found him incorporating more upfront drums and bass and focused grooves. It's a returning-to-life record, remembering what the sun feels like and letting it warm your skin.

Third Man

There is a definite connection to the past, but the swinging guitar boogie and snarled blues you might expect from Nance and company sounds leaner and completely hypnotic. What remains are 10 tracks from a well-oiled group so rhythmically together that the songs on the album seem as connected as links in a chain.

Last Gang

These are songs born from moments of serendipity: a spontaneously composed poem, an old voice memo, an uncannily pertinent book. Through unhurried exploration, Any Light invites a similar sense of charmed receptivity, even as it's songs examine such complex matters as depression, existential uncertainty and an increasingly digitized world.

Six Shooter Records

The Dead South flawlessly execute banjo rolls and lightning fast mandolin tremolos, 3-part harmonies and songs of classic themes -murder ballads, disloyalty, ghosts and the like, with a wink and a smile. Where Bluegrass meets Bach meets Billy Talent, for fans of Frank Sinatra and Tool alike, you’ll find Chains & Stakes.
