Chicago hasn’t heard much from borderline gothic post-shoegaze band Implodes since the release of the album Recurring Dream in 2013. But this week, excellent Oshkosh label Gilead Media put out the EP Reverser, which consists of two unreleased tracks from the Recurring Dream sessions and two freshly cut songs. Local filmmaker Lori Felker has made a shadowy, almost surreal video for “Out of Reach,” shooting at the Music Box on expired stock whose grainy, murky, saturated look complements Implodes’ sound.
