I was SO waiting for the new FALL OUT BOY album, which is one of my fave bands. And, well, they probably should have stayed broken up/retired. Now they pulled a Michael Jordan: Instead of going out with a bang, they got back in the game, and it was a shame! (Take that, Nicki Minaj!)
I also downloaded the new album from OLLY MURS and a few songs from the YEAH YEAH YEAHS, but nothing that made me jump out of my seat.
But this week...
After last week's disappointing new music releases, I wasn't expecting anything good. There weren't any albums I was really looking forward to, but I always listen to samples from artists I've never heard of because, hey, you just never know!!
And guess what???
One sample from THE NEIGHBOURHOOD led me to check out their whole album, and no joke--EVERY SONG WAS GOOD. I downloaded the entire album, and I've been listening to it over and over again. What an unexpected delight!! :)
Each song is really well done, but so similar in style that the entire album feels like one long song. I love albums which are like that! I've never heard of them before, and I just love accidentally stumbling upon a new album I adore!
Their sound probably might not be for everyone, but you'd be crazy not to at least give it a try.
Here's my favorite song on the album, SWEATER WEATHER.
My second fave song on the album is ALLEYWAYS, but seriously, all the songs are good.
Hope next week's releases are just as good or better! Anticipating a lot of great albums next week, including YOUNGBLOOD HAWKE and the acoustic version of Siberia from LIGHTS.
Happy listening :)
