Our shortlist of new albums being released this week is actually … quite long! Don’t miss the debut from XPN “Artist to Watch” Arlo Parks called Collapsed in Sunbeams. A no-doubt artist on the rise, Parks pens intimate songs upon a soulful and dreamy backdrop on her first full-length. Ani DiFranco is energized socially and politically on her 22nd album Revolutionary Love. We find hope and optimism in a very personal collection of songs from Langhorne Slim and his double album Strawberry Mansion. Before Weezer unveil their metal album (Van Weezer) later this year, they offer up some delightful pop gems on OK Human, out today. Also this week, discover new albums from Israeli alt-rocker Tamar Aphek, South London’s Goat Girl, and veteran Memphis rock & rollers Lucero. File Celeste under “must hear” voice, and listen to her full-length album Not Your Muse. And Philly indie-rock vets, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah release their latest New Fragility today. #PressPlay & enjoy!
