New Releases in June

Tuesday, June 7th, 2011

So whats new this month? We have a small overview of new releases for ya!

Arctic Monkeys have just put out their record named ‘Suck it and See.’ Critics have already formed opinions, saying the Monkeys have matured. Heavy riffs and more obscure lyrics replaced the sharp power pop and well-observed storytelling of the band’s earlier output … might this be considered one of the albums of the year 2011?!?

Jason Beck aka Chilly Gonzales invented himself anew with ‘The Unspeakable: Chilly Gonzales’, it is out as of the 10^th of June! This guy loves to surprise us and for this one, he has returned to rap or – as his fans call it – art rap!

Also Rock band The Melvins are back with some new shenanigans in the shape of a live album. Swing on down to your local record shop to pick up a few for you and your friends to support some ageing rock stars!

Death Cab for Cutie’s new album is also out: Codes and Keys is the first album in three years by Washington’s favourite Indie Band. Its their 10^th studio album so these guys know what they are doing!

For new releases, you should check out German Radio Station Byte.Fm – they have a show on Friday afternoon called „Neuland“ where they introduce all new records – this Friday it’s songs by Chilly Gonzales from 1 pm. Tune in!
