You know what's always cool about the 3rdish week of the new year? It seems that a lot of good artists put out some new stuff in the first month that seems to mark the rest of the musical year. Last year, Andrew Bird, Bon Iver, and Animal Collective all kicked out some pretty damn listen-able stuff and we had a damn good year of music in 2009!
This time around, I've only had a chance to sample a small handful of some good ól good ones, two of my favorite bands, at that.
Massive Attack! Their new album (first in 7 years) is...very different from their other stuff. Lacking in their strength in terms of hper-distinction, THIS is Massive Attack, however, they co-lab-or-ate with tons of champs out there (Tunde Adebimpe, Damon Albarn, Hope Sandoval, Guy Garvey and Martina Topley-Bird). This isn't supposed to come out for another weekish, so don't report me!
Pray for Rain
Second: Good 'ol Blockhead's at it again. If you don't listn to his stuff: you suck. Get better and download this.
I really dig this bonus piece (thank you external free mp3 sites)
Groove Armada-Shameless (feat. Bryan Ferry)
Cheerio!
