An eclectic selection spanning all ends of the musical spectrum.
January came and went and 2021 is off to a solid start, musically at least. Regardless of the madness that is the stock market, economy, and life in general right now, music and art alike continues to prosper, which one could argue is a result of the shortcomings. This month's album cover curation reflects that as Heaviest of Art expands into new artistic horizons, diversifying the monthly assortment and highlighting some of the best audiovisual treats that came across our desks in the past month.
What we have for you today is an interesting selection of styles, colors, musical genres, and artists in general, the likes of which includes Pockets Warhol, a Canada-based capuchin monkey that paints for charity. Pockets had the honor of illustrating MARTIN GORE's (Depeche Mode) new EP, The Third Chimpanzee, which is as stimulating as the color choice on the cover. We also have a variety of talents making their first appearance on the column and site overall, including Hillel Eflal, Jeff Fribourg, Wolfgang Stiller, and Ezakeil, all of whom excel at putting a face to the hymns embodied within. From the Bolt Thrower-like death metal of FROZEN SOUL's Crypt Of Ice to the witty charm of WEEZER's OK Computer and dreamlike soundscapes of APIFERA's Overstand, there's something for all to love. Scroll through, click on those listen links, and have at it!
