New Music Releases August 11th 2009

Posted on 11. Aug, 2009 by refe in NEWS

Summer is the season of reissues, and this week we have no shortage of them. The Cure, Fleetwood Mac, Ween – even the Flying Burrito Brothers. The big Woodstock: 40 Years On box set drops today as well, along with a live Jimi Hendrix that comes complete with a t-shirt.

As for new stuff, we’ve got Box Elders with Alice and Friends, Anna Ternheim with Leaving On a Mayday, and vinyl editions of last week’s Jets Overhead and Leamonheads releases. Believe it or not there’s also a new one from Rush called Grace Under Pressure.

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.
