New Album Releases August 4th, 2009

Posted on 04. Aug, 2009 by refe in NEWS

A lot of great new tracks dropping today, as well as several notable vinyl reissues.

Modest Mouse releases their much anticipated new EP No One’s First, and You’re Next to much rock mag fanfare. Taking a page out of the Creative Deconstruction release strategies article, six of the EP’s eight tracks were released earlier this year as 7″ singles, and have now been compiled along with two brand new ones. (Ok, they probably came up with that all by themselves  - but a man can dream, can’t he?)

The new one from The Japandroids is truly a solid record. Simple, noisy and completely lacking in self-restraint, the punk-rock energy of Post-Nothing quickly gets under your skin and it becomes difficult to get it out again.

The full list of new releases is below, with associate links to download the albums straight from iTunes, or purchase from Amazon in the case of box-sets and vinyl. Let me know what would make this list more complete, or more helpful for finding new music.

Have you been anticipating any of these new albums? Have I missed anything you think should be included here? Leave your comments and let me know what you think.
