The Operators, by Wei Zhongle

The Operators

by Wei Zhongle

supported by

Arminda K I put this album on repeat A LOT. The songs are super inventive and creative, and the production is bang-on, too. Favorite track: Nosejob.

Alan Terrill Wei Zhongle have intrigued me since their first release, but this is their first album I've loved all the way through. The tunes are shorter and tighter and the singing has somehow become easier on the ear. If you can imagine a mixture of the first Battles album mixed with Gentle Giant, you're somewhere near. Amazingly good and very original. Favorite track: Mute.

One of the very few bands that have constantly evolved with musical technology, Deerhoof prove once again their supreme relevancy. MM is a fantastic refresher, bringing in different vocalists and timbres to the usual unformulaic formula. A band who remain in a league of their own... Slut Aus Nord
