Angel Marcloid’s latest as Fire-Toolz—one of her many aliases—collects 14 antsy compositions recorded over the past four years, during which time she sallied deeper into deathcore and death metal, she said in press materials. Infernal vocals crawl across her wondrously maximalist soundscapes, wraithlike interlopers in a euphoric swirl of jazz fusion, Midwest emo, and digital new age. Contributors include Sam Greenfield, Nylist, Lipsticism, and Cole Pulice, among others.

Jeff Mills: The Eye Witness [Axis]
Techno originator Jeff Mills, now given to beguiling and ambitious electronic compositions, takes a decidedly big-picture view of world affairs on The Eye Witness, a concept album of sorts about “the leftover residue of harsh reality so impactful that it shapes the way you imagine, envision and calculate your position in regard to everything and everyone around you,” as he put it in press materials. The result is a suite of characteristically intricate, ambient symphonies that border neoclassical, as on “Menticide,” one of several tracks concerned with malign influences on public thought.
