Tim Cohen, I find it difficult to write about your music without commenting, each and every time, on your prolific nature. I cannot turn my head for a moment without you releasing some new album as some new band and I am confused, pleasantly so, by it. Do you have a time-stopping device? Is there perhaps two of you, both talented musicians able to conceive and record breath-taking songs along a varied spectrum of musical influences with hardly a blink of the eye? I imagine it doesn’t matter, I should just focus on how lucky I am that seemingly each and every month (my concept of time is a bit skewed) I find another previously unheard release from you gift-wrapped, floating in the ether of the internets. Yes, that’s what I’ll do.

Magic Trick’s new album (featuring members of Aisler’s Set and Kelly Stoltz’s band) Ruler of the Night will be released on Hardly Art, on June 12th.
