Albums in Stores – April 15th, 2016

Not a ton for me this week, but I'll pick up Sturgill Simpson, Bear Hands, and Blaqk Audio.

 

New Eskimeaux EP obviously

 

All about J. Dilla.

 

Sturgill Simpson is without a doubt the release of the week, but I also recommend that Sam Beam/Jesca Hoop album. Best album Beam's been a part of in nine years, imo.

 

Bear Hands is about it this week.
I'll check out J Dilla too.

 

New Santana is intriguing, especially since it features most of the Woodstock bank with him. Blaqk Audio, Royce and Sturgill will get some spins too.

 

I believe the Western Settings EP doesn't come out until 4/29, unless something changed.

 

This. & yeah, like many are saying it's a slower week but there are so many to go back to from the last few weeks that I'm alright with that.

 

It's much better now.

 

After scouring the interwebs it seems like this my list for the week:

You'll Pay for This -- Bear Hands
In the Yellow Leaf -- Brass Bed
Year of the Rabbit -- Eskimeaux
The Diary -- J Dilla
When It's All Over -- RAIGN
Layers -- Royce da 5'9"
A Sailor's Guide to Earth -- Sturgill Simpson
Hold/Still -- Suuns

 

Not much for me this week. I'll spend some extra time with some previous releases.

 

Don't forget about the debut album from Greater Pyrenees as well. Pretty great Ryan Adams-esque album from one of the dudes in Colour Revolt. (Released by Jesse Lacey / Brand New's Procrastinate! Music Traitors label, so there's that )

 

Sam Beam/Jessica Hoop is fantastic! I'll be checking out the new Cate Le Bon as well.

 

Angels & Airwaves-"Chasing Shadows-EP" (released earlier but I believe new to Apple Music today)
Bear Hands-"You'll Pay for This"
Blaqk Audio-"Material"

And also some singles:

Rob Zombie-"In the Age of the Consecrated Vampire We All Get High"
Young the Giant-"Amerika"

A little bit of a slower week for me, but I'll take advantage of that to catch up on some stuff from the past couple of weeks that I've been wanting to check out!

 

Well I'll be damned! They moved it up and I missed the news.

 

Meh, nothing for me this week. I really wanted something new to listen to today as well. Oh well.

 

I'll just leave this here..

 

Wow, I must admit I didn't know this band before. Sounds like Red City Radio covering a Gaslight Anthem song. Need to check out more from them.

 

everyone check out the band Step Rockets, the ep future nature dropped today. so so good..

indie pop

 

I was going to jump in here to suggest that people check-out this release. A really solid slab of melodic punk rock. There's a few bands playing this style now, in a way that feels fresh and new (Western Settings, Success, and Civil War Rust), and this EP is really great.

Well worth a spin if that's what you're into...

 

Not bad at all!

 

Will do it, of course.

 

You should check out the new Kevin Morby album out that came out today, idk if you are familiar with him, but this is his best album yet and I think its something you would enjoy
