Jace Clayton, aka DJ/rupture, returns with another outstanding mix. While Uproot feels every bit as purposeful as minor classics Gold Teeth Thief and Minesweeper Suite, it's far more subdued and spacious. Combining dubstep, pulsing ambience, and orchestral flourishes on tracks from Ghislain Poirier, Shackleton, and Ekkehard Ehlers, Rupture doesn't just wade through music, he constructs an alternate history.

From the first listen, the new post-hardcore album from Fucked Up-- their first for Matador-- is a pummeling, almost exhausting listen. Yet it's also incredibly inclusive and uplifting, an ambitious hard rock record born out of a sense of community and the hope of creating something huge. Vivian Girls and Sebastian Grainger (formerly from Death From Above 1979) guest.
