I once read an article in Rolling Stone where they called Collective Soul this generation's 38 Special. Rabbit is the name of their new album.
"Weird Al" Yankovic's Internet Leaks EP hits iTunes today. Yes, it's a digital-only release previewing the next "Weird Al" full-length, which will hopefully see release sometime next year. The five-song EP has "Whatever You Like," which is the most spot-on TI parody ever, as well as "Craigslist" and "Ringtone." You can grab that sucker right here.
Massive Aggressive, the latest spot of thrash from Richmond's Municipal Waste, isn't reinventing the metal wheel. It's not even reinventing the Waste's own sound. Case in point -- I had the new album in iTunes with the rest of the band's catalog, and I couldn't tell when any albums started or ended. Still, they do what they do well, and if you want something to listen to while driving a couple dozen miles over the speed limit, this is it. Now, if they'd only tour through the Midwest.
Danish band Mew's No More Stories is their first since 2005's And The Glass Handed Kites, which did exceptionally well, and was a big favorite of mine at the time. I'd kind of lost track of the band since then, so this one kind of worked its way under my radar. I've not had a chance to hear it, but I'm going to have to go out of my way to grab this later this week. If you like bands that sound like Coldplay, but can't really stand Coldplay themselves, this is the sort of thing for you. Fun fact: the actual full title of the album is a poem:
No More StoriesAre Told Today
I'm Sorry
They Washed Away
No More Stories
The World Is Grey
I'm Tired
Let's Wash Away
Arctic Monkeys' Humbug looks to follow in the vein of the band's previous two releases, in that it'll have one or two smashingly good singles, and a lot of filler. Still, that's a better track record than your average UK buzz band, and I'll take what I can get. Japan gets a cover of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds' "Red Right Hand," which is terribly unfair, but the Japanese have to deal with Godzilla, so I'll let them have it.
