Teething (CD)

Porij

Porij's Teething sounds like falling in love. The UK four-piece combines garage, house, nu-jazz, and electro-pop into lush, dreamlike tracks. "Ghost" is soft and intimate, a track as tender as it is bittersweet. With its whispered vocals and heartbeat rhythms, "You Should Know Me" starts off like the soundtrack to the afterparty after the afterparty before bursting into gleeful ravey abandon. "My Only Love" is hushed and wondrous and a conversation overheard between two lovers. Teething is a captivating slice of electro, with an appreciation for the brief, beautiful moments in life, and an ability to craft a mood that'll linger long after the record stops spinning.

The Night Shift [Color Vinyl] (LP)

Larry June

Just in time for the warm weather days, San Francisco hip-hop star Larry June is back with his fifth album collaborating with Dallas producer extraordinaire Cardo, The Night Shift . Heavy doses of g-funk, yacht rock, and jazzy grooves provide the backdrop for these two to work their magic, and with features from 2 Chainz, ScHoolboy Q, Too $hort and more, The Night Shift will be on repeat in the coming days.

Wall Of Eyes (CD)

The Smile

The Smile's Wall of Eyes is a powerful slow burn. These languid, lush songs unroll at their own pace, building a powerful mood that crescendoes as the album goes along. The tracks are devastatingly lovely, discordant and unsettling, with moments of sublime beauty. Alongside drummer Tom Skinner, Radiohead members Jonny Greenwood and Thom Yorke magnificently blend familiar elements of their legendary band's sound while still charting exciting new sonic ground.

Lisa Frankenstein [Collector's Edition] (BLU)

Zelda Williams

A coming of rage love story from acclaimed writer Diablo Cody and director Zelda Williams about a misunderstood teenager and her high school crush, who happens to be a handsome corpse. After a set of playfully horrific circumstances bring him back to life, the two embark on a murderous journey to find love, happiness... and a few missing body parts along the way.

Recipe For Hate [Translucent Tigers Eye Vinyl] (LP)

Bad Religion

1993's Recipe for Hate is Bad Religion's most eclectic album and a controversial one for the fans. The band focuses on events of the day, serving scathing commentary on the state of the nation, specifically alcoholism, abortion, and homelessness. Greg Graffin reaffirms his place as one of the best punk rock vocalists with his trademark combination of perfect pitch and skeptical emotion. The album also features guest vocals from Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder and Concrete Blonde's Johnette Napolitano.

All Born Screaming (CD)

St. Vincent

St. Vincent gets dark on All Born Screaming . Annie Clark has said that the songs are about metaphorical heavens and hells and that's certainly the vibe of this adventurous, invigorating new album. Clark recruited Dave Grohl and Cate Le Bon for what she has called a "plague-pop" outing. It's a fitting moniker: the exuberance, the anxiety, the high highs and low lows are all there. Clark gets industrial and intense, danceable and delirious. All Born Screaming is an exciting sonic evolution for an artist who's not afraid to push the limits.

Glovemaker (CD)

Loren Kramar

Loren Kramar's Glovemaker is the type of bigger-than-life, character-driven album that feels like it came from a bygone era. Kramar sings of love, longing, and fame and the intersection of the three, infusing his songs with classic R&B, soul, and lounge sounds. He paints worlds filled with huge emotions, deep desires, and a fair share of humor. As an artist, he calls to mind figures like Serge Gainsbourg, Scott Walker, and Lana Del Rey: sultry, kooky, gleefully teetering on the verge. Glovemaker is your ideal soundtrack for driving to the Polo Lounge with perfect hair, a studio deal, and an Eve Babitz paperback.

Ballad Of The Brothers (CD)

The Bacon Brothers

The Bacon Brothers' new album is a rollicking good time. More than just a celebrity band, actor Kevin and Emmy-winning composer Michael clearly know their musical history. Ballad of the Brothers blends old time folk, retro soul, alt-rock, and country into a travelogue through the past and present of American music. A rootsy, spirited, thoroughly enjoyable good time, Ballad of the Brothers showcases the Bacon Brothers' ability to tell a good tale and write a toe-tappin' tune.

$10 Cowboy (CD)

Charley Crockett

Need an antidote to overly polished, corporate country? Charley Crockett is your man. The Texan singer and guitarist delivers an updated blend of Americana and country that sounds as classic as the legendary artists of the '50s and '60s...albeit with a bit more blues, rock, and R&B in the mix. $10 Cowboy builds on Crockett's excellent earlier albums; the songwriting is evocative and transportive, the atmosphere as electrifying and intriguing as a midnight drive on a lonely highway. Crockett is the real deal and $10 Cowboy is a must-hear.

Let There Be Music (CD)

Bonny Doon

Bonny Doon's latest musical journey is one that has big payoffs for devoted followers and undeniable rewards for anyone just discovering them. Let There Be Music presents the band at their most dynamic and the songwriting deftly explores new terrain. Indelible guitar lines lay the solid foundation while the lyrics reach skyward with philosophical truths - both profound and mundane, comforting and difficult.

Only God Was Above Us (CD)

Vampire Weekend

Only God Was Above Us is the poignant, urgent new album from Vampire Weekend. With a name taken from a 1988 news article about a terrifying in-air airplane incident, it's perhaps no surprise that the songs seem to share that same sense of faith in the midst of catastrophe. "Capricorn" careens between grinding electronic noise, sweeping strings, and intimate indie guitar. "Gen-X Cops" starts off with the intensity of a high-speed car chase before shimmering, slightly melancholic harmonies kick in. Only God Was Above Us is some of Vampire Weekend's best work; fans will dig this expansion in the band's sound.

Boeckner! (CD)

Boeckner

Filled with lively, catchy rock that calls to mind The Cars and David Bowie, Boeckner's solo debut is the culmination of his deep library of musical influence and his quest for self-realization. In Boeckner's hands, the journey of working through the grit and gravel that accumulates in the heart involves post-apocalyptic synth and guitar heroism. Throughout his work with Wolf Parade, Handsome Furs, and other bands, the Canadian indie rocker recognizes that few feelings are more gratifying than hope. But it takes getting the hell out of your own way.
