"Junee"

Algiers - Shook - an impressive roster of guests and a newly energized sound (judging by the 3 tracks available in the Bandcamp streamer)

Algiers have always been unflinching, but SHOOK is at the same time notably joyous and celebratory. It was born when Fisher and Mahan found themselves back in their native Atlanta for several months, reeling from growing pressures and burnout as touring musicians. This triggered an intense period of beatmaking, reconnecting as friends over hours immersed in episodes of Rhythm Roulette and Against the Clock and descending deep into alt-rap YouTube rabbit holes. A revisit of DJ Grand Wizard Theodore’s 1970s punk-infused New York City rap masterpiece ‘Subway Theme’ served as a spiritual moodboard for the album’s cross-pollination of urban and counter-culture styles. Across the seamlessly flowing set, including spoken vignettes and ambient instrumental segues, the band pay respect to a sprawling lineage of rap and punk iconoclasts from DJ Premier, DJ Screw and Dead Boys to Lukah, Griselda and Dïat – chopping and screwing beats on a dusty SP-404 and a Sequential Circuits Tempest, building imagined sample libraries from scratch. While community and collaboration has always been integral to Algiers’ ethos, SHOOK brings this to its fullest manifestation. The liner notes read like a who’s who of ground-breaking and contemporary underground music, featuring Zack de la Rocha, Big Rube (The Dungeon Family), billy woods, Samuel T. Herring (Future Islands), Jae Matthews (Boy Harsher), LaToya Kent (Mourning [A] BLKstar), Backxwash, Nadah El Shazly, DeForrest Brown Jr. (Speaker Music), Patrick Shiroishi, Lee Bains III, and Mark Cisneros (Hammered Hulls, The Make-Up, Kid Congo Powers). Their contributions throughout deftly reshape and recontextualize the notion of being Shook from a variety of perspectives, occupying shifting roles as oracles and narrators. “It very much deepens and broadens the world of Algiers”, says drummer Matt Tong.

2024 Favorites with Notes

2024 Favorite LPs & EPs https://www.zoocoup.org/2024/music/lps.html

2024 Favorite Singles https://www.zoocoup.org/2024/music/singles.html

2024 Stats:

Albums purchased: 174

EPs purchased: 30

Singles purchased: 157

This is the first year ever that I purchased more records as digital releases than as physical releases on CD. This was not done with intent, just how it worked out based on formats available for purchase.

A few notes:

I don't own any other Shannon and the Clams records, but this one, surprisingly, really got to me.

Looking forward to more dueling title releases from Cosey Mueller and Moses Sumney in the future

The Sick Day EP almost made the top of the overall list. The title track was the 2024 song I played the most last year

So happy to have new Melt-Banana music in the world

Also happy there's finally a julie full length in existence

Glad to have St Vincent making St Vincent music again

Dwight Yoakam continues to be pretty damn amazing

The Judy and the Jerks record is life affirming

Unfortunately, the Scrunchies record might be one of the last things recorded by Steve Albini that ever joins my record collection

I like these dear francis singles, but I sincerely hope this doesn't mean the Clavin sisters have broken up Bleached

Sick Day, Slippers, Desiree Cannon, Den Der Hale, Objections, Crumbs, Artificial Go, Interlay, Hannah Frances, Robber Robber, Seven Davis Jr, Bad Breeding, Fleur, NØ MAN, SHADOW SHOW and ira glass were all new to me this year
