Comment: Two hipster bands I’ve never liked, Courtney Barnett and Parquet Courts, have released good singles off their albums, Wussy are due a killer album after their last one disappointed, James Bey is a potential rock star so that should be interesting, Matthew Sweet needs to get his mojo back, Five Finger Death Punch are about as good as rock gets in 2018. But Kelly Willis is a giant and is the most anticipated album of the week.
