As befits the man who has been both the guitarist of cut-up noise rock band AIDS Wolf and a soothing voice on McGill University’s CKUT, Alex Moskos’ output is as varied as his roving curiosity. 2015 saw both his lauded Drainolith LP Hysteria as well as an extremely limited LP of quieter piano musings - Military Terms.

Of course, Death by Audio morphed into what many would argue was the beating heart of an entire artist community.
