The following albums dropped today and are available in your local trendy record stores or on digital download.
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
“Only Run”
Frontman Alec Ounsworth and drummer Sean Greenhalgh are the only remaining original members, as CYHSY returns with a new cast of characters. With the new lineup comes a new vibe that’s IMO very Radioheadesque with a hint of U2, decide for yourself. The first single is “As Always.”

Fucked Up “Glass Boys”
The hardcore Toronto based rockers are releasing their much-anticipated fourth studio album. This is the follow-up to 2011’s David Comes To Life. I dig this band’s sound until Damian starts singing, err yelling.

Hamilton Leithauser “Black Hours”
Recently, The Walkmen sadly called it quits. Frontman Hamilton Leithauser began life as a solo artist when the band went on hiatus back in 2011. This is his debut full-length, and “Alexandra” is the lead single.

Parquet Courts “Sunbathing Animal”
One of my favorite bands to emerge over the last year and a half is Brooklyn based indie rockers Parquet Courts. Their sophomore release follows last years highly-praised debut Light Up Gold. The lead single is also titled “Sunbathing Animal.”

The Orwells “Disgraceland”
Chicago teenage indie rockers The Orwells are a band on the come. They’re releasing the follow-up to Remember When, their debut full-length. The band teased us last year with two extended plays, all the while pissing off the likes of Arctic Monkey on tour.
