Look at this guy just doing all kinds of incredible things whenever he feels like it. Paul Banks has been there and done that. He even put out an EP earlier this year titled Julian Plenti Lives…, which worked as some sort of segway away from his first album …Skyscraper to Banks. While we’re still listening to “Only If You Run’, Banks is back with his latest solo album tritely titled Banks. The album is full of lush atmosphere, even some violin. We love everything Interpol does, so why not just give their frontman another chance?
Faded Paper Figures held the key to one of our most anticipated indie-pop albums this year. They announced just a few hours ago that The Matter is out today. For more on that go here.
This week also has lots of other good new music, including some traditional bands we’ve heard immense things about, particularly Bat For Lashes, whose The Haunted Man comes out just in time for Halloween. Their single below “All Your Gold” is now over a million plays on Soundcloud! Also, the pop-laden duo that is Holy Ghost! are back with their single “It Gets Dark”.
Black Moth Super Rainbow (from Pittsburgh) continue their tour as they promote their album Cobra Juicy. There’s so much more to go through, but it would be unfair to point out one more band. With that we wish you godspeed on your weekly music adventure below.
