”The record happened in a little dream, consisting of traveling half a day to meet your friends, catch a handful of waves, set up recording equipment, show them the songs, press record, jam, go for a midnight skate,” Lee said.

”It can work in conjunction with the album, a libretto, and it can also work as just a book of images with no story, an abundance of beautiful light, an 'art book,'“ Phil says.

Netherlands festival Le Guess Who? is going virtual this year, but they've announced 2021 dates, happening November 11-14, as well as the initial list of curators and performers.

Like most festivals this year, Utrecht's Le Guess Who? was postponed till 2021 but they are hosting a virtual edition...

This week's Notable Releases include Phil Elverum's first album as The Microphones in 17 years, the last album Jason Molina recorded before his passing, Neurosis' Steve Von Till, 4AD-signed rapper Tkay Maidza, and more...

”There is too much focus on the title of a thing,” Phil says about reviving his old moniker. ”Ideally, we can just make stuff without a title for it and without an identity for it.”
