Rip It Off
“After two releases on the recently returned Siltbreeze label, Times New Viking have become better songwriters, but thankfully don't change much of anything from their humble home-recorded beginnings on Rip It Off, their Matador debut.”
The Paisley Reich
“Recent Matador signings issue a second excellent Siltbreeze album of shouty boy-girl punk that recalls the Swell Maps, the Fall, and Huggy Bear.”
Born Again Revisited
“Matador band's highest-fidelity album to date, an intentional playing down of the things that made them among lo-fi's leading lights.”
Stay Awake - EP
“Neither a coda nor a collection of cast-offs or curios, this five-song EP lays out five fresh new cuts worthy of any Times New Viking LP. And, hell, you can even pick out a lyric or two.”
Over & Over - EP
“After releases on Matador, and one for Merge, Times New Viking have returned to Siltbreeze, the Philly-based label behind the band's first couple LPs. The 14-minute Over & Over finds the Ohio lo-fi noise-poppers sounding like a band with nothing left to prove.”
Dancer Equired
“Moving from Matador to Merge, the scuzz-pop stars offer their first LP without the noise that sheathed their work from the start.”
Wavelength is the Letterboxd for music.
