"With their second LP Veld, Sick Gazelle take their cosmic and instantaneous group communications to new levels of clarity and structure, without losing the spark of the jam. The band expands from longtime Chicago underground players Eric Block on guitar (Veloce) and vocalist/saxophonist Bruce Lamont (Yakuza) with drummer Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth) to include Douglas McCombs (Tortoise) on bass. Though these five tracks are sculpted from improvisations, they've been refined into song forms that illuminate the strengths of both the individual players and the chemistry of the quartet version of the combo. This comes through in Veld's moments of reflective subtlety on tracks like 'I'll Come Running,' in the foreboding tension of the cinematic 'Ocean Always Wins,' as well as in the charged grooves and dubby undercurrents of the sideways rocker 'Hippies.'"

"Lou Barlow personified home recording's rise in the late '80s and was arguably one of the few key players that changed the trajectory of songwriting as the '90s charted its cultural course. For the 30th anniversary of his Really Insane 7-inch and Winning Losers EP, Emil Amos and Steve Shelley have compiled an overview of Barlow's best solo work under the name Sentridoh. Based around an even mix of legendary tracks and extra deep cuts, this compilation focuses on Barlow's arrangement innovations, signature textural explorations, and radical ability to turn psychological upheaval into classic songs."
