As is tradition, I like to take Tuesdays to quickly list the artists releasing new material this week, in case you’re looking to buy and listen to some new music. This week is a good one and a nice start to the fall season. Be on the look out for fresh material from Aimee Mann, The Album Leaf, Ben Folds Five, Band of Horses, Brass Bed, Brother Ali, Catherine Irwin, Corin Tucker Band, Dinosaur Jr., Grizzly Bear, How to Dress Well, James Iha, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Josephine Foster, The Killers, Local H, Lymbyc Systym, Menomena, Mike Coykendoll, Natural Child, Nelly Furtado, Paul Simon, Rangda, Robert Pollard, Sic Alps, Sweet Lights, The Sea and Cake, The Whigs and Woods. Phew, that’s a lot of stuff. If something in there doesn’t appeal to you, perhaps a track or two in today’s Pick Your Poison will. Allow me to make some curation suggestions for you. Be sure to check out downloads from Agent Ribbons, Broke For Free, D A W N S, Fine Times, Firewater, Royal Canoe, Solos, Sombear, Tamarin and WRITER. In the Soundcloud section, tracks from Bassnectar (ft. Chino Moreno) and Benjamin Francis Leftwich’s cover of M83 are both good tracks to stream.
