New In Stores and on the Radio
In stores 9/11
Black Francis Bluefinger
Frank Black is back using his first post-Pixies moniker. This is a concept album dedicated to the Dutch painter and musician Herman Brood.
The Go! Team Proof Of Youth
Indie Blogger Nation is collectively creaming themselves over this one.
Hot Hot Heat Happiness LTD.
Listen to the album on their myspace.
Johnathan Rice Further North
You probably know him as the guy that Jenny Lewis is dating. (Are they still dating? I’m behind on my musician gossip.) He’s got a great voice and this should be a good one for you all you indie types out there.
Pinback Autumn Of The Seraphs
Still available for streaming here. I hit this pretty hard last week and I’m liking “How We Breathe”, “Devil You Know” and “Blue Harvest”.
Impacting on radio this week:
Coheed And Cambria - The Running Free
This is already on KNDD’s power rotation. I can also see this crossing over into the Active Rock stations as well.
The Donnas - Don’t Wait Up For Me
I couldn’t find this out on the interweb, but check out their cover of Billy Idol’s “Dancing with Myself” in the listen section.
Jimmy Eat World - Big Casino
This is already burning up the alt rock charts.
Kings Of Leon - Fans
I really thought “Charmer” was going to be their next single. But I don’t think you can go wrong with anything off this album.
Pinback - From Nothing To Nowhere
This is growing on me. I wasn’t feeling it when I first heard it on KBZT.
Serj Tankian - Empty Walls
Already on rotation on XTRA and KROQ.
The White Stripes - You Don’t Know What Love Is
This is already climbing the alt rock charts as well.
