Review of Contra Madre in Baltimore Beat!:
"It’s somehow fitting that Alcorn is still breaking new ground on “Contra Madre,” her new posthumous album in collaboration with Philly-based experimental death-metal duo Nomad War Machine … [a] drifting, droning, blinging and wailing storm of an album, coming on at times as a soothing drizzle and at others a raging vortex.”

PREORDERS start today for @_nomad.war.machine and @susanalcornpsg ’s Contra Madre LP. This is one of the final recordings Susan made before her crushing passing last year, but the album also marks the recorded debut of @zooolius and @james.reichard.music ’s improvised metal duo. Rise and fall, surge and ebb. It’s all there in this amazing collaboration. The album is out 1/30/26, the eve of the anniversary of Susan’s death. Get yours at the link in the bio.
