Wolf Eyes 2025
By Kit Macdonald

Ann Arbor, Mioghigan's favourite noise and experimental music pioneers Wolf Eyes have always brought the descriptive best out of music journalists, and some of the review quotes about their latest album, Difficult Messages, are worth savouring: "a dazzling showcase of their collaborative legacy”, “dark pleasures”, “a fusion of mutant electronic jazz, rhythmic noise, and unpredictable soundscapes”. “excursions into degraded electronica, avant-garde campfire anthems, improvised sound art … a spacious church of a congregation as welcoming as it is provocative”.
Fans of meme culture may also want to go along and pay tribute to one of the most prolific and best-loved memers in the game. Band member John Olson runs the excellent @inzanejohnny Instagram account, (current follower number 121k), which has been delighting users and spawning "denied" sub-accounts since 2013. That leads us to our last quote, from the alternative weekly newspaper Now, which rather perceptively called Olson "some sort of bizarro influencer".
