Heard Gun Has No Trigger on the drive to work this morning. What a cool groove. Didn't know about the new DP. I can appreciate someone not "getting" Bitte Orca. It borders on indulgent in parts but there are also moments of brilliance. Can't wait to hear the new album in full.

New Band of Horses as well? Man what a great year for music.

It is seriously a great year for music.

SO many new albums being released.


Here's another one being announced by one of the original Portland Inide bands, The Helio Sequence.

THeir last album was just straight out perky tits.

This one is called Negotiations.

Free download of their song October from it.

The new Dirty Projectors record officially comes out today.

Dirty Projectors - Swing Lo Magellan


I seem to be the only person on Earth that couldn't get into Bitte Orca. I can respect that they want to be eccentric and challenging, but that album just didn't resonate with me.

This new one still has that oft-kilter touch, but is much more accessible although less adventurous. Love the vocal harmonies throughout this record, and I feel the songwriting is stronger overall.

Dance For You:

Been loving this album since release!

Odd. I think Bitte Orca was a bit more accessible and didn't really get into the new one as much on first listen.

I'm sure a few more spins will fix that.

The Shins - Port of Morrow




A bit late to this one. Never been a huge Shins fan but I heard this live rendition on the drive to work the other day. It seemed very different to the twangy, off kilter hipster wankery I usually associate with The Shins. A more mature album on first listen.

Has anyone listened to the new Ladyhawke album? I quite liked her first album...

Let's keep this thread going boys! 

I think Mount Erie's new album Ocean Roar is brilliant.

This thread has exposed me to some really great new music. I'm all for keeping it alive!

Took a few listens but I'm really digging the eccentricities on this one. Expected to be challenged with overindulgence. Nope. Album is in heavy rotation at the moment -

I've been gravitating toward the new Grizzly Bear album lately. I love all the layers and textures throughout this album. My only gripe is the sound quality is very compressed, but not sure if it's just the pre-release rips that are out. I guess I'll find out once the retail comes out.



Here's the first couple of singles:
