With almost 13 years and four months between releases -- an interminable wait for their devoted legion of fans -- enigmatic alt-metal band Tool finally returned at the end of summer 2019 with their long-awaited fifth album, Fear Inoculum.
SOS is the second studio album from GRAMMY award winning singer SZA, and the follow up to 2017’s major label debut album Ctrl. The genre-blending album contains elements of pop, R&B, soft-rock, gospel, and hip-hop.
Arriving on a wave of well-earned hype rooted in tight chops and a confident swagger, The Strokes offer a Rock & Roll antidote to the plague of boy bands, teen divas, and petulant rap-rock outfits.
SOS Deluxe: LANA finds the singer-songwriter even more candid than it's predecessor. Across the collection's now-42 tracks, SZA is vulnerable as she confesses her weaknesses and acknowledges her flaws, all while on her journey to find peace.
The album features contributions from The Durutti Column, Mustafa, Caroline Polachek, Daniel Caesar, Lorde, Zadie Smith, Tirzah, Brendan Yates (Turnstile), and Mabe Fratti.
The album showcases the band's signature genre-blending sound, featuring a mix of rock and blues-infused performances, including their hit "Wondering Why" and "I'm Still Fine".
When it comes to Tyler Childers, it's tempting to read too much into album titles. Purgatory, his 2017 debut, did tend to hang suspended between the poles separating country and Americana, having its roots inflections feel spectral.
Founded by Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl, as a one-man project following the death of Kurt Cobain, Foo Fighters got it's name from the UFOs and various aerial phenomena that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in WWII, known collectively as foo fighters
Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) is one of the most influential albums in hip-hop history. A gritty, stripped-down, dark signature sound of New York City's rap scene during the mid-1990s.
"I wanted it to be the biggest sounding Foo Fighters record ever. To make a gigantic rock record but with Greg Kurstin's sense of melody and arrangement… Motorhead's version of Sgt. Pepper… or something like that." Grohl
Cage the Elephant presents their second live record, aptly entitled Unpeeled, a 21-track belter of stripped-back, alternate versions of popular cuts from their back catalog, without losing any of the aforementioned grit or attitude.
Armed with a voice like a gravel road in a dry season, Saskatchewan's Colter Wall sounds more like a world-weary troubadour than most actual world-weary troubadours.
Little Songs is the new album from Colter Wall. On Little Songs, fans of Wall's will find the same hardscrabble voice they've loved over the years connecting the contemporary world to the values, hardships, and celebrations of rural life.
But Here We Are is the new album from Foo Fighters, and marks the bands return after a year of staggering losses, personal introspection and bittersweet remembrances.
It takes a brave person to label their album ‘Who Cares?’ – the kind of title that can come back to bite someone on their fourth trip around the full-length block.
Legend Of The Wu-Tang is a must-have compilation released in 2004, featuring classic raw cuts like "C.R.E.A.M.", "Shame On A Nigga" and "Wu-Tang Clan Ain't Nuthing Ta F' Wit."
