Do people get genuinely excited about Tuesdays anymore? I mean, I do, but I’m not sure how many others do. Considering all the piracy that goes on, with albums and such leaking before their official release dates, has that tempered the excitement? I can see how that might be. For me, it’s about the physicality of holding something in your hands, which means actually buying something from a brick and mortar store (or ordering it online). So some weeks I’ll race to the store on a Tuesday and raid the shelves, dropping more money than I might otherwise like. Still, it’s a great feeling from time to time, and I hope it never dies out or goes away. So let me provide the service I do every Tuesday, which is to list the artists with some new stuff coming out, just to make sure you’re aware of it. Look for fresh releases this week from Court Yard Hounds, David Lynch, Frank Black, Gauntlet Hair, A Grave With No Name, Robert Randolph, Soft Metals, Speedwell (featured below!), White Dove and Yoya. Good stuff, but if none of that inspires you, maybe you’ll discover something new and great in today’s Pick Your Poison. Let me recommend tracks from Autre Ne Veut, BEACH, Diplo, Jake Bellows, Kid Karate and U137. In the Soundcloud section after the jump, stream new songs from Army Navy, Barbarossa, Earl Sweatshirt, Pure Bathing Culture and TV Ghost.
