  • Artist                                                Album
  • Bauhaus                                           Go Away White - This Band has been around for over 30 years.  The new album sounds like updated early 80ish moody rock that they made popular with Bowiesque vocals.   
  • The Black Crowes                           Warpaint - First studio album since 2001.  I have listened to these guys since 1990 when Shake Your Money Maker was released.  This new album, from the stream I’ve heard online, sounds like they got a bit of everything rock (Evergreen, We Who See the Deep), blues (Walk Believer Walk), folk (last 2 tracks), etc.  I don’t hear a standout track except for the first release Goodbye Daughters of the Revolution and maybe Wounded Bird. Descent but not great for me.     
  • Jackson Browne                              Solo Acoustic Volume 2 - Volume sold well and was nominated for several awards so why not make Volume 2.  This one continues to span his career with songs like Never Stop and In the Shape of My Heart 
  • Kathleen Edwards                          Asking for Flowers - Acoustic/pop/Folk/country
  • Flogging Molly                                Float - Irish 7 piece high energy traditional Celtic to Punk Lite 
  • The Gutter Twins                          Satunalia - 1st Album pairing Mark Lanegan (Soulsavers) and Greg Dulli (Afgan Wigs, Twilight Singers).  Dulli named this by combining Satanic and the Everly Brothers.  Interesting. 
  • Caroline Herring                             Lantana - Folk
  • Howlin Rain                                     Magnificent Friend - 70’s Organ Rock
  • Hanne Hukkelberg                         Rykestrasse 68 - Norwegian - Ecclectopopjazz
  • Alan Jackson                                   Good Time - Country
  • Ladyhawk                                        Shots - Sounds like Neil Young/Roky Erickson indie dark rock
  • Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks     Real Emotional Trash - Eccentric Pop Rock from Portand
  • Michael McDonald                          Soul Speak - Adult Contemporary
  • Murder By Death                           Red of Tooth and Claw - Indie Rock.  Strange lead vocals
  • Senor Flavio                                    Supersaund 2012 - Spanish pop/ecclectic
  • What Made Milwaukee Famous  What Doesn’t Kill Us - From Austin.  Follow up to their successful debut album. The new one sounds good check it on their site.  http://www.whatmademilwaukeefamous.com/ They will have a CD release party at Emo’s on 3/7.
  • White Hinterland                            Phylactery Factory - Cross between M. Ward & Joni Mitchell & Frou Frou.
