Jason Aldean My Kinda Party Released Tuesday, November 02, 2010 Price: $12.99 (sale priced) Country There s a lot about the singer that's become familiar during his five years as a country hitmaker, after all, he has spent more weeks at number one on the radio than any other country artists in the last 12 months.

The smokey guitar riffs that have become a signature - they're built on sounds that have come before, but they don't really belong to anyone else in the country genre, either. The small-town themes that pervade many of his songs - that's all been done before, but not quite with the unwavering honesty that Aldean applies to the subject.

Greg Brown Freak Flag Released Tuesday, May 24, 2011 Price: $16.99 Folk As the result of a fateful lighting strike on the studio where he was working, Brown lost the recordings that were to comprise his next album.

Praised for the ability to blend 'down-home country with bits of reggae, bluegrass and rock to create a high-quality musical stew' (USA Today), front man Zac Brown notes that the new album 'is representative of where we are right now.

If the menacing album art, which features a cobra primed for the attack, is any indication of the music itself, we can expect an all out assault of the senses, with a tendency towards the venomous and psychedelic. 'The end result,' as Pitchforkmedia states, 'is something so hip it could kill you in large doses 'in the right doses it just plain kills.'

Bush Sea of Memories Released Tuesday, September 13, 2011 Price: $17.99 Rock & Pop THE SEA OF MEMORIES captures the electricity and trademark intensity of classic Bush delivered in a setting that is fresh and alive. Songs like The Sound of Winter, Heart of the Matter and All Night Doctors are propelled by heavy guitar and hypnotic beats, simple song structures and sublime textures. About the album, Rossdale says, When making music, you have a choice to repeat what you ve done or move on. It wouldve been safe to just rework (1994s debut album) Sixteen Stone over and over, but what kind of life would that be? When youre driving down the road, youre focused on whats in front of you; you don t really think to keep checking in your rear view mirror. I like the idea of art changing, developing and morphing.

Johnny Cash American VI: Ain't No Grave Released Tuesday, February 23, 2010 Price: $11.99 Country American VI is deeply elegiac and spiritual, with each song its own piece of the puzzle of life's mysteries and challenges - the pursuit of salvation, the importance of friendships, the dream of peace, the power of faith, and the joys and adversities that entail simple survival.

Rosanne Cash List Released Tuesday, October 06, 2009 Price: $16.99 Country 2009 album from Johnny Cash's enormously talented singing/songwriting daughter. The List features Rosanne's contemporary interpretations of songs from a list of essential Country songs passed on to her by her legendary father. Featuring duet partners Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello, Rufus Wainwright, and Jeff Tweedy. Cash does a pretty incredible job on Hank Snow's 'I'm Moving On' - and it might be the best piece on the disk. Dylan's 'Girl From the North Country' (great string bass line throughout the song) is well done too. She does a decent job on '500 Miles'. It is poignant enough, but it doesn't convey the emotion that it did when she did it live or even when Peter, Paul & Mary or Bobby Bare recorded it.

	Eva Cassidy Simply Eva Released Tuesday, January 25, 2011 Price: $16.99 Folk Here is the Eva Cassidy cherished and loved by those who knew her in life.

'If there's no groove there,' Castro told Guitar Player, 'I can't sink my teeth into it.' On Hard Believer, there are plenty of satisfying grooves to bite down on. But what really drives the songs home is Castro's telepathic interaction with his band. The group operates as a single engine, firing on all cylinders, sometimes pushing the pedal to the floor, other times slowing things down for a simmering ballad.

They, of course, had good reasons to feel cocky: There were the high-octane, hook-o-rama singles, Oh Yeah, Sexy Little Thing and My Kinda Girl. Then there were the riveting live shows, starting with a sold-out-within-seconds Road Test run of clubs and ending a year later with a sold-out-within-seconds world tour of large halls.

Dirty Heads (Rome / Sublime) Any Port in a Storm Released Tuesday, April 27, 2010 Price: $14.99 Rock & Pop The Dirty Heads comfortably combine hip-hop and reggae with somewhat lesser dollops of conventional rock songwriting and arrangements on Any Port in a Storm. While those are the three main styles the group blend, they don't always use all three idioms in the same song, some tracks coming close to being straight hip-hop, reggae, and/or rock. Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan are even referenced in 'Believe.' It's an unusual mixture, but more clever than exciting, without standout tunes or lyrics.

Flaming Lips Embryonic Released Tuesday, October 13, 2009 Price: $13.99 Rock & Pop 'Embryonic' is the sound of the Flaming Lips returning to what garnered them fame in the first place.

Far from being a wistful trip back in time, the album sees the Grammy Award-winning quartet creating some of the most forward thinking music of their long, storied career. While all manner of genres come into play from classical and jazz to bluegrass and African music to electric blues and Eastern European folk dances the result is an impossible to pigeonhole sound all their own, a meeting of musical minds that remains, as ever, utterly indescribable. Simply put, it is The Flecktones, the music made only when these four individuals come together.

Fleet Foxes Helplessness Blues Released Tuesday, May 03, 2011 Price: $10.99 (sale priced) Rock & Pop Helplessness Blues sees Fleet Foxes heighten and extend themselves, adding instrumentation (clarinet, the music box, pedal steel guitar, lap steel guitar, Tibetan singing bowls, vibraphone, etc., along with more traditional band instrumentation), with a focus on clear, direct lyrics, and an emphasis on group vocal harmonies. We have it on good authority that the album is called Helplessness Blues for at least a couple of reasons. One, it's kind of a funny title. Secondly, one of the prevailing themes of the album is the struggle between who you are and who you want to be or who you want to end up, and how sometimes you are the only thing getting in the way of that.

And I would be remiss if I didnt pay special attention to The Sound Outside. Ford Tennis (drum), Tyler Tornfelt (upright bass), and Jeffrey Munger (guitar) provide an excellent backbone. This isnt some young girl singing lighthearted candy pop tunes or whiny love tracks. Shes a woman with a powerful voice that requires a band that challenges her and propels her forward.

Forrest Day Forrest Day Released Tuesday, November 01, 2011 Price: $7.99 (sale priced) Rap The rhythms of hip-hop provide a placemat for nervously melodic splendor and a melting pot of genres. What are we to call this compellingly oddball mlange of rock, rap, jazz, reggae, and other influences, all in sway to some of the most mirthfully self-conscious streams of consciousness you ve ever heard? We could call it attention-deficit-disorder rock. Or maybe we should just call it Forrest Day, the Bay-area bandleader who s releasing his self-titled full-length debut on the Ninth Street Opus label.

Bill Frisell Beautiful Dreamers Released Tuesday, August 31, 2010 Price: $15.99 Jazz 'For a long time I'd had the dream of making a trio with Eyvind Kang and Rudy Royston. We've known each other for years and worked together in many situations. The idea came about as a result of the power and strength of the connection that happens when we play music together. It wasn't about the instruments, it was about the people. We played our first gig on June 7, 2008 in Eugene, Oregon and from the first note, it was working. Each time we get together the music feels new.....and old. Backwards and forwards. Up and down. Anything is possible. I can't wait to hear what happens next. Of course, the next thing on my mind was wishing, hoping we could make an album together of new music.

I was adopted shortly thereafter but left my adopted family at fifteen. I wandered for years looking for, but never quite finding a place that felt like home.

The line-up was completed with the addition of bassist Levin and Porcupine Tree's drummer, Harrison (both members of the 2008 incarnation of King Crimson), adding their parts to the material in their respective studios.

Kings of Convenience Declaration of Dependence Released Tuesday, October 20, 2009 Price: $15.99 Rock & Pop Declaration of Dependence is the story of two people living two very different lives sensing that they are immensely more powerful together than apart. In that sense it is the most adult, the most mature record Kings of Convenience have ever made. That it is their most gripping, their most revealing is, if anything, just a by-product of that honesty and their endeavor. 'Erlend is a very stubborn individual with extreme belief in his own ideas,' says Erik of his partner. 'He's very free and creative and his access to unusual and fresh ideas is very good. I find that quite unique. For some reason they are very similar to my ideas on music.

Lenny Kravitz Black & White America Released Tuesday, August 30, 2011 Price: $16.99 Rock & Pop Black and White America was written in reaction to a documentary Kravitz saw about racism in the post-Obama United States. Amidst the defiant lyrics, the songwriter references his own family history, and the experiences of his parents as an interracial couple in the 1960s. Though the sonic emphasis of Black and White America may land squarely on the funk, the force behind such guitar-driven smashes as 'Fly Away' and 'Are You Gonna Go My Way' hasn't turned his back on rock. Songs like 'Rock Star City Life,' and the first single, 'Stand,' give the album a healthy dose of crunching riffs.

Kris Kristofferson Closer to the Bone (Dig) Released Tuesday, September 29, 2009 Price: $16.99 Country Kristofferson says of the new album, I like the intimacy of the new album. It has a general mood of reflecting on where we all are at this end of life. Closer To The Bone is a deftly observed, honestly executed work about love, separation, loss, and mortality.

Krokus Hoodoo Released Tuesday, May 25, 2010 Price: $13.99 Rock & Pop This latest disc has the old band reunited and I must say I am pleasantly surprised. Vocalist Marc Storace is top notch, hauntingly similar to Bon Scott at various spots...which is a good thing. The first track, Drive it in, speaks of sex and rock n roll...great combo. Hoodoo Woman rocks leading into the classic Born to be Wild which they do very well. Rock n Roll Handshake has a cool guitar rhythm. The entire disc just sounds great and Storace's voice is in fine form.

Fela Kuti Africa for Africa Released Tuesday, April 12, 2011 Price: $14.99 Africa On his new album, Africa for Africa, Femi articulates a raw and forceful call to the long tradition of Afrobeat. Africa for Africa is in several ways a return to Femi's roots. He recorded the album in the same studio where he produced his first recordings with his father and his breakthrough solo album, Shoki Shoki. This recording is deliberately less produced than its predecessor, Day by Day, which was released to acclaim, including a Grammy nomination, in 2009. Africa for Africa aims to present Afrobeat in its rough, purest form. Femi has always performed music that is socially conscious, and he continues to develop his activist voice on the new album.

Lady Antebellum Own the Night Released Tuesday, September 13, 2011 Price: $16.99 Country 'One of our favorite songs on the new record is called `We Owned The Night,' which is about a special once-in-a-lifetime moment, and we thought that naming the album around that same sentiment was really appropriate,' says Hillary Scott.Own The Night follows the band's GRAMMY winning sophomore album Need You Now.

Ladytron Best of 00-10 Released Tuesday, March 29, 2011 Price: $12.99 Techno Those albums, surveyed on the career-spanning Best of Ladytron: 00-10, reflect the quartet s deftly executed (and delightfully subversive) dualities: primordial grooves vs. lushly layered synths; sanguine melodies vs. shimmering atmospherics; and art-house detachment vs. the poignant narratives delivered by dueling sirens Marnie and Aroyo. Ladytron has created a body of work that reveals a fresh creative arc and, as time has told, served as a reference point for a current crop of artists such as Lady Gaga, Goldfrapp, La Roux and Crystal Castles.

Ladytron Gravity the Seducer Released Tuesday, September 13, 2011 Price: $12.99 Techno Gravity the Seducer is more of a jump than the last album - more ethereal & melodic, a touch more abstract in places - baroque 'n' roll. Ladytron recorded the album in Kent's countryside, with co-producer Barny Barnicott (Artic Monkeys, Kasabian, Editors) at the helm. So its testimony to their craft to say that Gravity The Seducer, the fifth album from the electro-pop provocateurs, is vintage Ladytron

Aaron Lewis Town Line Released Tuesday, March 01, 2011 Price: $8.99 Country 'These songs are country in the sense of classic Americana', says Staind frontman Aaron Lewis of the music on his debut solo release, Town Line. 'They're simple, understandable, and founded on the quality of the songwriting. If you put a country accompaniment to any of the songs that I've written over the years on my acoustic, all of them would work as country tunes. I always write and play the same way. The only difference here is the accompaniment.' And country music comes naturally for Aaron Lewis. In fact, the Staind frontman never strayed very far from country. It's something that he grew up with. It's something that he comes back to. It's something that inspires him. It's something that's in his blood.

Madness Liberty of Norton Folgate Released Tuesday, September 29, 2009 Price: $16.99 Ska Despite being enamored with ska s Jamaican skank, Madness never forgot their working-class British roots. And the band s first album of new material in a decade owes a greater debt to the Kinks than to Prince Buster. London landmarks (the Hippodrome, Marks & Spencer) add sharp details to memories of a soured relationship on the piano-and-organ-led ''Sugar and Spice.'' The similarly wistful ''Forever Young'' weaves horn lines over minor-key piano plaints and a loping backbeat. It all looks backward unabashedly -- fitting for a band formed 30-plus years ago -- but no less resonant.

Magnetic Fields Realism Released Tuesday, January 26, 2010 Price: $16.99 Rock & Pop Realism, is the flipside to the industrial pop of Distortion, the quartet's brilliant 2008 homage to, of all things, the clangorous sound of the Jesus and Mary Chain. While Distortion was recorded quickly and noisily in the stairwells and rooms of the New York City apartment building to which singer-songwriter-bandleader Stephen Merritt was about to bid adieu for California, Realism was cut in the distortion-free environs of a Los Angeles studio, and its sound is as pristine as a plein-air painting.

MGMT Oracular Spectacular Released Tuesday, January 22, 2008 Price: $12.99 Rock & Pop MGMT find kindred spirits in Muse and Mew by dressing their melodies in the fanciful trappings of 1970s British prog, but unlike their contemporaries the duo also weaves in lessons from disco, new-wave synth-pop, and early 90s Britpop. The understanding that youthful innocence is a potent force-- a theme first established in 'Time to Pretend'-- continues throughout the record. Instead of the 'Knights of Cydonia', though, MGMT fights 'Weekend Wars', ostensibly an ode to the fictionalized childhood battles that treat backyards as independent colonies in need of conquering.

'At that moment, I decided to just make records that were more personal,' says Moby, 'maybe more experimental, and a little more challenging, maybe not as easy to like, but things that I found to be artistically and creatively more satifying.

Peter Murphy Ninth Released Tuesday, June 07, 2011 Price: $12.99 Rock & Pop There s a sophisticated energy and psychic urgency to tracks like 'Seesaw Sway,' 'Slowdown' and 'Memory Go.' Equally exciting are moments like 'Velocity Bird,' where Murphy gets his swagger on in the same wild kingdom where Iggy Pop s 'streetwalking cheetah' prowled; the rocking 'Peace To Each,' where the singer ramps up his sinister quotient a few notches; the slow grooving head-nodder 'Uneven & Brittle,' and the brooding, atmospheric noir of 'Secret Silk Society.' On the convex, Ninth also features moments of warm poignancy, like the lover-comforting 'Never Fall Out' and the melancholy closing track, 'Crme de la Crme.' But it s the album s first single, 'I Spit Roses,' that reconciles Murphy s melodic sophistication with his resignation toward the fate of Bauhaus
