Beggars Banquet [180 Gram Vinyl] (LP)

The Stones are celebrating the 50th Anniversary of their hit album, Beggars Banquet , with a fresh reissue for 2022. All-time classic tracks like “Sympathy for the Devil” and “Street Fighting Man” have never sounded better.

Reconstruction Site [Apple & Black Half & Half Vinyl] (LP)

The Weakerthans

In honor of its 20th anniversary, The Weakerthans' Reconstruction Site has been reissued on apple and black half & half color vinyl. Reconstruction Site, the third album from the Winnipeg alternative rockers, tells a complex story of life, death and loss. Singer John K. Samson has a Steve Earle-like stark storytelling quality to his vocals, and the songwriting hits like a modern-day Petty.

Still Love (CD)

Teenage Wrist

Grunge. Alt-rock riffs. Punk influences. Angsty, guitar-fueled ballads. Teenage Wrist's Still Love is everything you love about the '90s. On their third full-length, the band sounds better than ever. The songs are tightly-crafted, with melodies that'll knock you out emotionally and keep you coming back. Still Love is a record that feels written from the heart, the type of album that reminds you of the power of music to capture our most inexpressible thoughts, wants, and needs. Featuring guest appearances from SA Martinez of 311, Softcult, Sister Voice, Fear Before The March Of Flames, and Heavenward.

The Avett Brothers (LP)

The Avett Brothers

The Avett Brothers are back with a warm and inviting new self-titled album. The band's lilting indie-folk packs quite the emotional punch as the brothers sing about aging and dying, the unpredictability of life, and the twists and turns of even the most well-intentioned of relationships. The melodies are exquisite, with layered compositions featuring banjo, organ, fiddle, piano, and strings. The perfect soundtrack for endless summer days and the cool night breezes that hint of autumn and the dying of the leaves.

Dune: Part Two (4K UHD)

Denis Villeneuve

Dune: Part Two explores the mythic journey of Paul Atreides as he unites with Chani and the Fremen while on a warpath of revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family. Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the known universe, he endeavors to prevent a terrible future only he can foresee.

Standing Out Loud (CD)

Alastair Greene

Fans of down-and-dirty blues and scorching Southern rock will dig Alastair Greene's Standing Out Loud . Greene's work is rooted in the tradition of '60s and '70s blues rock; he's both a guitar virtuoso and a sort of music historian, not to mention a killer songwriter. These tracks are rowdy and rollicking, plainspoken and punchy. In short, there's a whole lot of rock 'n' roll spirit infusing these swampy blues and sizzlin' rock tracks. Turn them up loud and crank the AC because the temperature is about to rise.

Some Of It Was True (CD)

The Menzingers

Philadelphia punk legends and road warriors The Menzingers' seventh album, Some of it Was True , stands as their most urgent and energetic effort to date. Capturing their distinctive live energy within the confines of the studio, the sound is rich, raw, and complementary to the group's increasingly prismatic songwriting approach. The Menzingers seem to be kickstarting a new era in their already illustrious career by tapping into the energy that brought the band to life in the very beginning.

The American Society Of Magical Negroes (BLU)

Kobi Libii

The American Society of Magical Negroes is a fresh, satirical comedy about a young man, Aren, who is recruited into a secret society of magical Black people who dedicate their lives to a cause of utmost importance: making white people's lives easier.

Sinseerly Yours (LP)

Thee Sinseers

Southern California's own Thee Sinseers bring East LA old school soul into the 21st century on Sinseerly Yours . Bandleader Joey Quinones is up front on keys and vocals, and his heavenly croon will make you sway. There are slow, smoky ballads sung from the heart – on "Can't Call Me Baby" vocalist Adriana Flores shines, and there are songs to make you shake your hips. Throw on "Talking Back" and you'll be on your feet in a beat.

Lives Outgrown (CD)

Beth Gibbons

Wow. Expectations for a Beth Gibbons solo album were always going to be high and the great news is that Lives Outgrown delivers. The Portishead singer's voice has exceptional power, the arrangements are layered, haunting, and affecting, the songs will take your heart in your hands just as Gibbons' earlier work did. These ten chamber pop and art folk tracks were recorded over a decade, with production from Gibbons herself with James Ford, plus additional production by Lee Harris (Talk Talk). Lives Outgrown captures something about the experience of aging, mortality, and farewells that's difficult to articulate in words. Of course Beth Gibbons does it with devastating beauty and a sparse but lovingly-held sense of light.

Hard Copy (LP)

VR SEX

A surreal dive into the underbelly of urban life, new VR SEX album Hard Copy is a substance-induced synth punk Odyssey through the darkest corners of Los Angeles. Since their first project in 2019, Horseplay , VR SEX has carved out a truly distinctive sound. It's punk; it's psychedelic; it's electronic; it's atmospheric; it's dystopian. This type of Orwellian punk is the perfect backing for the strange, off-kilter, bleak city stories told throughout the tracklist.

Orgy Of The Damned (CD)

Slash

Rock legend Slash makes his mark on the blues with his new album, Orgy of the Damned . As expected, the guitar work is phenomenal: these tracks are gritty, funky, and sizzling hot. Slash has enlisted an eclectic, all-star cast of collaborators for these steamy blues covers, too. Billy F Gibbons and Gary Clark Jr. bring electrifying blues meets rock 'n' roll attitude to their respective tracks. Demi Lovato brings soulful pop slink to a disco-laced funk/electro cover of "Papa Was a Rolling Stone." Iggy Pop brings his inimitable, easy swagger to "Awful Dream." Crank this one up and prepare to be transported to the sultry, sweaty roadhouse of your dreams.
