New Music Fridays have their own vibes and next weeks (the load below) is a little weak, and the week after that (2/21) has Ozzy, Best Coast, BTS, King Krule, and on… By the way, I use Billboards upcoming album releases as well as Metacritic, Album Of The Year, and other website, and consider it mind boggling that a website that is based around recorded music doesn’t have remotely close to complete listings for upcoming album releases… mind boggling but not surprising…
Alan Doyle, Rough Side Out

Ash, Teenage Wildlife: 25 Years of Ash- Irish guys grow up and not out
Bambara, Stray
Beach Bunny, Honeymoon
Boniface, Boniface
Carla Bley / Steve Swallow / Andy Sheppard, Life Goes On – This is actually pretty awesome from the stuff I’ve heard
