There\u2019s a moment in \u201cAging Young Women,\u201d as the song nears its 3-minute mark, where Anna von Hausswolff\u2019s voice combines with Ethel Cain\u2019s. \u201cIn the crumbled chest of kindness,\u201d they sing, \u201cyour heart will break.\u201d The song, von Hausswolff\u2019s final teaser from ICONOCLASTS<\/em>, required four violinists, one violist, a cellist, a double-bassist, a saxophonist, and a programmer. But the music isn\u2019t as dense as the personnel list might suggest. No, \u201cAging Young Women\u201d is a cavernous sanctuary dedicated to \u201cgetting older by the hour\u201d and a lingering worry that \u201cthe dream of a family will slowly disappear\u201d\u2014a song about, as von Hausswolff puts it, \u201cwhen the passing of time becomes a negative notion due to unfulfilled dreams and a feeling that a tainted situation is impossible to change to the contrary.\u201d The potency of \u201cAging Young Women\u201d is the opposite of a torch song. A church organ hums with elegance. Angels dangle above us. Any sentimentality is replaced by sirens of flesh and transience von Hausswolff and Cain arrive to in grace. \u2014Matt Mitchell<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"After two decades in Animal Collective<\/a>, Brian Weitz\u2014better known as Geologist\u2014finally steps out on his own. \u201cTonic,\u201d the first single from his debut solo album Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?<\/em> (a real as hell name, by the way), turns the hurdy-gurdy into a post-punk engine. Named after the New York venue where he once watched Keiji Haino bend that same instrument into pure electricity, the track hums with a handmade intensity: overdriven drones, analog synths, Avey Tare\u2019s bass riding Alianna Kalaba\u2019s propulsive drums. The result isn\u2019t nostalgic or quaint but kinetic, dense, and weirdly exhilarating, like SST punk reimagined through modular synths and memory haze. For the Animal Collective member best known for sculpting the band\u2019s atmospheres, the track feels almost physical: sound not as environment, but as contact. \u201cTonic\u201d is the sound of a lifelong collaborator finally going solo, and it crackles with the thrill of first contact. \u2014Casey Epstein-Gross<\/em><\/p>\n
