Deerhoof delivers yet another collection of fun and eclectic songs.
-
The lead single from Stage Four, a new album by post-hardcore group Touché Amoré, out September 16 via Epitaph. The band seems to be heading into a more accessible, pop punk-infused direction here, but still delivers impassioned performances.

The Strokes are back, following up their least impressive album with their least impressive EP.
-
The second single off case/lang/veirs, a collaborative album by singer-songwriters Neko Case, k.d. lang, and Laura Veirs, out June 17 via Anti-.
-
A debut full-length is on the way from Chris Farren (of Fake Problems) and Jeff Rosenstock (formerly of Bomb The Music Industry! and Arrogant Sons of Bitches). The duo perform and record under the moniker Antarctigo Vespucci, a name that would make your 8th grade history teacher’s skin crawl.

The new Death Cab For Cutie album is the Washington band’s most middle-of-the-road release yet.
-
Melbourne singer-songwriter Cortney Barnett’s debut LP works on simple garage rock grooves and a relatable charm.

Boston rock outfit pile follows up their most popular record yet with a series of songs that sound somewhat unfocused and incoherently aggressive. Still the same band at their core, but they’re currently working with a slightly unflattering sound.
