Jalen Ngonda - Doctrine of Love

"The doctrine of love holds that every thought and action should be guided first by compassion for others, because love is the highest measure of human worth." The tracks on the forthcoming album are born from this creed. With his deep knowledge and love of classic soul, Jalen delivers authenticity in abundance. Doctrine of Love blends pop sensibility and soulful melodies with raw grit and groove, expanding on the orchestral arrangements of Come Around and Love Me with flourishes of horns and gospel-kissed background vocals, creating a highly stylish exercise in modern soul artistry.

Lee "Scratch" Perry & Mouse on Mars - Spatial, No Problem

Lee Perry's last official album project took him to Berlin, where he landed on the doorstop of electronic pioneers Mouse on Mars. Often described as one of the single most important figures in the history of Jamaican music. Producer, engineer, label owner, performer, his impact traced ska to rocksteady to roots reggae, to sound systems, to dub, to Bob Marley, Junior Murvin, Max Romeo and The Congos and so many other legends. Spatial, No Problem is the story of what Scratch left behind in Berlin in his encounter. It's a story of spaces mixing, and cultures morphing towards a different kind of future.

Death Cab For Cutie - I Built You A Tower

Death Cab is one of the definitive indie-rock bands. I Built You A Tower is the sound of loss, compartmentalization, and then grief bursting out from the seams. It's also the sound of the growth that comes after falling apart, of acknowledging pain without letting it destroy you. "I see the tower existing on your emotional horizon," Ben Gibbard states. "You don't always have to look at what's inside it, but it's a reminder that it happened. You know it's there. You have to face it."

Modest Mouse - An Eraser And A Maze

A physics theory says past, present, and future coexist- and that's the best lens for An Eraser and a Maze, which feels like every era of Modest Mouse happening at once. Guided by Isaac Brock's instinct-first process, the album is both familiar and alien, warm and cold. It stretches across the band's sonic history, from propulsive classics to stripped, raw moments, while carrying an undercurrent of mortality and loss that refuses easy optimism.

Old Crow Medicine Show - Union Made

Grammy winners Old Crow Medicine Show's new album Union Made is rooted in the people, places and pulse of America. It features special guests such as Ray Benson, Evan Felker, Del McCoury, Lee Oskar, Maggie Rose, Molly Tuttle, Jesse Welles, and more. It has ten new OCMS songs and two classic covers: Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth" and Merle Haggard's "Rainbow Stew."

Vince Staples - Cry Baby

Vince is one of the most revered voices of his generation. Though he's a celebrated multi-hyphenate, making an impact in TV, film & contemporary culture, music is where he most naturally pushes boundaries as an artist, storyteller & creative force. Following a string of acclaimed introspective projects, Ramona Park (a tribute to his hometown) & Dark Times (deeper, more personal themes), Cry Baby is a more outwardly facing artistic statement and piece of social commentary.

Of Montreal - Aethermead

Aethermead finds the band revisiting sounds from their early years, while still pushing artistic boundaries with their iconic style of pop & indie rock. The album shimmers with indie pop elements of Satanic Panic in the Attic, as well as the raw, live energy of Lousy With Sylvianbriar. Inspired partly from a recent move to Brooklyn, NY and a yearning for community. "I started a meditation practice soon after moving to help me self-regulate," says Barnes. "I began to imagine I was sending all my destructive and useless thoughts/energies into the ether."

Red Clay Strays - Grateful

Grateful marks the 3rd studio album from The Red Clay Strays. Featuring standout singles "Demons In Your Choir," "Revival," "If I Didn't Know You," and "Do Today," the album sees the band reuniting with their previous Made by These Moments collaborator and producer Dave Cobb. The assured songs of faith and redemption are fueled by a collective songwriting effort and executed with powerful lead vocals and a thunderous, heart throbbing performance from the band.
