The Linguini Incident (Director's Cut) [1991] (BLU)

In this delightful romantic comedy, Rosanna Arquette plays an underpaid waitress at an obnoxiously hip New York restaurant named Dali.

In the latest chapter of the entrepreneur-CEO-best-selling author-actress-influencer-DJ, Hilton makes a triumphant return to the recording studio with her second album, executive produced by Sia.

THE FORCE (CD)

LL Cool J

Hip-hop legend LL COOL J returns with The Force , his first new album in more than a decade. Produced in its entirety by A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip, The Force (an acronym for Frequencies Of Real Creative Energy) represents years of intense work. The result is an album that sounds thoroughly modern, full of razor-sharp writing and nimble, elastic vocals. Appearances from Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, Saweetie, Busta Rhymes, and more. More

Genre: Hip Hop

One Of A Kind (LP)

The Heavy Heavy

The Heavy Heavy's debut full-length album, One of a Kind , delivers more of the soulful breed of retro rock & roll of their EP Life and Life Only , but leans away from Laurel Canyon-esque folk-rock heard on the EP and fully embraces their British roots, finding crucial inspiration in the gritty and groove-heavy hedonism of the Rolling Stones' Goats Head Soup . More

Genre: Rock

Cope: Live At The Earl (CD)

Manchester Orchestra

To celebrate the 10th-anniversary of their seminal album Cope , Manchester Orchestra took the stage for one night only at Atlanta's tiny, beloved rock venue The Earl to perform a blistering set of the album from start to finish to an audience of fanclub members. Cope remains the band's loudest, fastest, and most pounding album of their career. More

Genre: Rock

WOOF. [Red Vinyl] (LP)

Fat Dog

Fat Dog's brilliant and mind-bending debut album Woof. is a thrilling blend of electro-punk, rock & roll, techno soundscapes, industrial-pop, and rave euphoria. Front man Joe Love calls it "screaming-into-a-pillow music." We call it a good time. Prepare to have your mind blown by the London-based band's chaotic and infectious sound. More

Genre: Rock

Ensoulment (CD)

The The

THE THE's first studio album of new songs in 25 years, Ensoulment , delves into deep thoughts on love and sex, war and politics, life and death, and the meaning of what it is to be human in the 21st century in general. Ensoulment echoes THE THE's multi-faceted musical past, but it's richly representative of the mercurial band's here and now as well. More

Genre: Rock

Manning Fireworks [Red Vinyl] (LP)

MJ Lenderman

The much-buzzed about MJ Lenderman returns with some of the finest work of his brief yet dazzling career. Manning Fireworks is autumnal and essentially lonesome, a record that feels warm, gracious, and ever-so-slightly optimistic, even as Lenderman chronicles the unrepentant foibles and failures of his songs' characters. The music is twangy, fuzzed out, and gritty: it's the sound of epic yet angsty nights out where the lines blur between melancholic hedonism and letting the good times roll. Going nowhere fast has never sounded so good. More

Genre: Rock

Rose Main Reading Room (LP)

Peel Dream Magazine

Peel Dream Magazine's Rose Main Reading Room is a dreamy, hazy, cosmopolitan record. Inspired in part by New York's cityscape, the band's fourth album is a fusion of underground influences, from dreampop to shoegaze to motorik. This is the kind of album that builds a world and sets a mood — a front-to-back, immersive listen that'll make your days more romantic, lovely, and vivid. Rose Main Reading Room will make you remember why you fell in love with music in the first place. More

Genre: Rock

Belaya Polosa [Cloudy Clear Vinyl] (LP)

Molchat Doma

From the opening notes of Belaya Polosa , it's clear that Molchat Doma has another hit on their hands. On the first track, the Belarusian post-punk act injects their doomy gothic sound with a late night rave aesthetic, featuring woozy beats, bonkers samples, and driving percussion that beckons listeners to the dancefloor. As the album progresses, we're back in the atmospheric, melancholic territory we expect, with a bit of gothic twang, insistent synths, and glacial melodies. Those electronic elements stick around, adding texture and a sense of icy unease that calls Depeche Mode to mind. Wintry and dark, Belaya Polosa nonetheless possesses a shadowy, beating heart. More

Genre: Rock

VIVA HINDS [Pink In Clear Vinyl] (LP)

Hinds

The new album from Spanish garage rockers Hinds is irresistible. On Viva Hinds , the band delivers a high-octane version of indie pop: there are songs made for sweaty house parties and songs made for singing along with your best friend. Lyrics alternate between Spanish and English, the dual vocals between singers and guitarists Carlotta Cosials and Ana García Perrote infuse the tracks with energy, joy, and beauty. Beck and Grian Chatten of Fontaines D.C. make guest appearances. Viva Hinds is an exuberant, neon-streaked thrill. More

Genre: Rock

Hole Erth [Clear Blue Smoke Vinyl] (LP)

Toro y Moi

Chillwave chameleon Toro y Moi morphs genres once again with the nostalgic, creative Hole Erth . Chaz Bear leans into the glitchy, electronic side of his sound as he navigates into lo-fi Soundcloud rap, '90s emo, and a more indie version of — yes — rap rock. The songs feel like a nod to the days of adolescent angst, wonder, and exploration, as filtered through Toro y Moi's lush washes of sound, hushed vocals, and diverse, cross-genre musical knowledge. The album coalesced quickly around sonic experimentations with pals like Don Toliver, Benjamin Gibbard, Kevin Abstract and Lev and that sense of freedom and fun permeates Hole Erth . More

Genre: Rock

Sonido Cosmico (CD)

Hermanos Gutiérrez

The Ecuadorian-Swiss duo Hermanos Gutiérrez have released their sixth studio album. Following on the success of their Western film soundtrack-inspired album, El Bueno y el Malo , the brothers offer dreamy instrumentals with Latin American psychedelic vibes on Sonido Cosmico . The Western twang still lingers, especially on “El Fantasma,” but elsewhere “Cumbia Lunar” is a lush psych gem, while the title track is an intriguing swirl of melodies and slowly building percussion. More

Genre: World

Sunday Morning Put-On (CD)

Andrew Bird

Performing as the Andrew Bird Trio, with Alan Hampton on bass and Ted Poor on drums and vibraphone, the acclaimed multi-instrumentalist Bird delivers all jazz covers on this new album. These are rich, evocative takes on standards like the delicate “I Fall In Love Too Easily” and the beautifully melancholy “I Cover the Waterfront.” “You’d Be So Nice to Come Home to” is another highlight with Bird’s smooth vocals adding to the appeal of a cleverly sparse arrangement. More

Genre: Rock

Take A Picture [Sun Gold Opaque Vinyl] (LP)

Margo Guryan

1960s singer/songwriter Margo Guryan’s work was recorded by artists such as Glen Campbell, Astrud Gilberto, Cass Elliot, and even Spanky and Our Gang. Best known for her song “Sunday Morning,” she released one album in 1968 of gently psychedelic pop with light, sweet vocals. Newly restored from the original two-track safety masters, Take a Picture kicks off with “Sunday Morning” and reaches new heights with the sunny “What Can I Give You.” For fans of modern indie pop groups that often borrow heavily from this sound. More

Genre: Rock

Duality (CD)

Lindsey Stirling

The new album by violinist, songwriter, and dancer Lindsey Stirling is a fascinating melding of genres: classical, pop, and world music with electronic elements. The instrumental tracks on Duality are as lush and dramatic as an epic adventure film soundtrack. After kicking off with Middle Eastern flair on the dynamic “Evil Twin,” the album moves to the breathtakingly anthemic “Eye Of The Untold Her.” Another highlight, “Kintsugi,” is lovely and stirringly melancholy. More

Genre: Electronic-Dance

Paint A Room [Red Vinyl] (LP)

Chris Cohen

On his first solo album in five years, Chris Cohen (Deerhoof, The Curtains) delivers gentle songs with thought-provoking lyrics. The overall vibe and instrumentation on Paint a Room reference the subtle grooves of 1970s singer/songwriters. “Wishing Well” stands out in the midst of the set for its jangle-pop liveliness. “Sunever” is another highlight thanks to its intriguing melody and rhythm, while “Night or Day” is a sunny gem with a strong bassline. More

Genre: Rock

Triple Fire [Black/White Vinyl] (LP)

Geneva Jacuzzi

Eclectic Los Angeles artist Geneva Jacuzzi has released a new album of synth-heavy art-pop and ‘80s-inspired New Wave. From the opening song “Lap of Luxury,” Triple Fire serves up consistently nostalgic, danceable tracks. “Speed of Light” may have a sultry, post-punk vibe, but “Take It Or Leave It” is upbeat and glittering with uplifting melodies. “Bow Tie Eater” is a fun, funky number a la Lene Lovich, and “Heart Full of Poison” could be a lost Book of Love track, offering that same romantic synth-pop vibe.
