New Album Releases For Tuesday 5/6/2008

Submitted by admin on May 6, 2008 – 5:07 pmNo Comment

The Republic Tigers

The first releases of May 2008 caught our eyes . Perhaps The Barenaked Ladies can rebound from their last album? Does anyone care about 3 Doors Down anymore? And why did we include Ja Rule? There are no real straightforward answers to each of these, but I’ll try and sum them up in one short answer. We’ve given up hope, no and “Livin It Up”.

On to the rest of the pack. You may be intrigued to hear the “baroque harmonic pop jams” that Fleet Foxes boast. Their latest Sun Giant released on Subpop is making some noise this week. A few weeks after we were able to see them live, Kansas City’s The Republic Tigers just released their debut album, Keep Color. With the experimental folk of Tim Fite, listeners should find comfort with Fair Ain’t Far. The Last Shadow Puppets’ managed to sound like an instant classic with The Age Of The Understatement.

The Motion City Soundtrack Acoustic EP should be a welcomed adjustment from the typical synth and electric of the group. Russian Circles’ alt. rock, seven-track album have been getting rave reviews on their latest Station. We also suggest checking out Germany’s Tokio Hotel as well as taking a gander at No Age’s latest album Nouns.
