Sorry I didn't get much in the way of new music to you last week. Hope this makes up for it. The
DUSTdevils were a stunning bygone act I don't think I've covered here before. Formulated in the UK by a duo of
Michael Duane and
Jaqi Dulany, but later immigrating to New York, the 'devils were responsible for this austere slice of post-punk, three more albums and just as many eps. From what I've absorbed so far by them
Rhenyards Grin is what I appreciate the most. It's a no-stumble, ten song concoction of noir, minor key aesthetics, droney albeit tuneful guitar runs, and Dulany's quasi-melodic parlance that's a perfect match for her noisome compatriots. Think early Siouxsie meets Band of Susans. Looking forward to excavating the remainder of their back catalog.

Michael Duane was also behind the best music blog of all time: Young MossTongue
I second WmPs comment. That was SUCH a great blog. Been about 5(?) years and I still miss it.
