Largehearted Boy's Interesting CD Releases This Week
Hold Steady keyboardist Franz Nicolay’s solo album, Major General, is out tomorrow. (Editor’s note: Late of the Pier is out in the US too.)
Vinyl reissues of Dead Can Dance’sSpleen and Ideal, the Jam’s All Mod Cons, the Lemonheads’ It’s a Shame About Ray are tempting, as are three M83 vinyl reissues: Before the Dawn Heals Us, Digital Shades, Vol. 1, and Saturdays=Youth
Next week’s release week is huge (new albums by Antony and the Johnsons, Animal Collective, A.C. Newman, and that’s just the artists beginning with “A”), so I am saving the bulk of the month’s music budget for the January 20th releases.
What new releases can you recommend? Have I left anything off the list?
