Good New Releases to check out
« on: June 04, 2012, 03:16:20 AM »
Post new releases that are good.  Sound quality doesn't matter, we're talking good music here.  Help us keep in touch with new albums and new artists to appease the headphone Gods!

Questhate, I'm hoping you'll be active in this thread.   ;)

Please post the album cover, along with at least a couple sentences about why it's good, or what kind of music it is, or an "if you like X band, you'll probably like this" sort of thing.  You can link to some youtube samples if you want.

THeir 2010 album Seance Hill is a 2010 favorite indie album of mine. They did sound better on the CD than they did live  :-[

Not exactly new since it came out last month, but this is so far album of the year for me. The prog/ambient album by Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree) and Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth)

This should be the entire album:

Post album covers!  I personally enjoy judging albums by their covers.  :-)

Great idea for a thread! Been listening to these for the past week:

Father John Misty - Fear Fun

Solo album from the drummer of Fleet Foxes. A bit inconsistent of an album. Some of it approaches cheesy, but it's mostly good.
Nancy from Now On:
I'm Writing a Novel:
Funtimes in Babylon:

El-P -Cancer 4 Cure

Fans of El-P's beats should dig this, as it's more over-the-top drum programming and spacy layered synths that assaults your senses. He's grown as a rapper so much since his Company Flow days too.
Tougher Colder Killer:
The Full Retard:
True Story:

The Walkmen - Heaven

Not much to say about The Walkmen. They write gloriously catchy little pop tunes.
Heartbreaker:
Love is Luck:
Song For Leigh:

I'm liking the Father John Misty album so far.  Awesome voice.  Do you notice the distortion in his voice?  Is that distortion?  Doesn't really bother me, but in light of the recent discussion about clipping it seems worth investigating.  Agreed about the slight cheeze, but I like a little cheeze.  What's up with the song about oil?  I think he pulls it off in the end. 

Also digging the new Walkmen.  Though I miss the "glassy guitars and cymbals" sound of their previous two albums.  Need to listen more, it'll probably grow on me.
