The Very Best Of Neil Diamond
SUPER FURRY ANIMALS – DARK DAYS/LIGHT YEARS
Welsh psychedelic pop legends Super Furry Animals have just released their ninth album, 'Dark Days/Light Years.” Though previous albums have seen the band experiment with extra instrumentation, this release is full of songs based more on poppy hooks than layered composition. Franz Ferdinand guitarist Nick McCarthy provides guest vocals – in German! – for the Kraftwerk-esque track “Inaugural Trams.”

Begone Dull Care
JUNIOR BOYS – BEGONE DULL CARE
The Junior Boys’ third album takes its name from a film collaboration between Norman McLaren and Oscar Peterson. Like their previous efforts, “Begone Dull Care” is subtle, sleek electronica – quite listenable, and thoroughly enjoyable.

It's been four years since Mark Oliver Everett’s Eels released “Blinking Lights and Other Revelations,” and now they're finally ready to come back.
On June 2, Vagrant released the new Eels album, “Hombre Lobo.” The band recorded the 12-song collection in frontman Mark Oliver Everett's studio.
