The Natural History have posted several MP3s
from their forthcoming album, Beat. Beat. Heartbeat.

Masonic, who released one of
my favorite albums of 2001, Never Stood A Chance, have posted a number
of MP3s from their Bridge Sessions EP. There are currently only three there,
though there used to be five. Curiouser and curiouser.

Also of note, The Starlight Mints, who
released one of my favorite albums of 2000, The Dreams Stuff Was Made Of,
are expected to release their new record, Built On Squares, in June. Unfortunately, there are no MP3s to sample, but you can always just watch the video for “Popsicle”.
