New Releases This Week (Or, “Twitter Remains Utterly Useless”)
In a hopeless attempt at finding, well, actual use for Twitter, a few weeks ago, I decided to start posting my recommendations from the new releases that week. But I realized today that by doing that, I’m basically spamming everyone’s feed, by filling it in one fell swoop with a long unbroken sequence of, ahem, “tweets.”
So I’m retiring that Twitter experiment, but in case you may find some value in my list of this week’s “picks,” I re-present them here:
- Cat Power – Dark End of the Street Dbl 10″ Vinyl EP
- Fennesz – June Vinyl
- The Jam – In The City Vinyl Reissue
- The Nerves – One Way Ticket
- Parenthetical Girls – Entanglements Vinyl
- Pavement – Brighten The Corners – Nicene Creedence Edition
- The Smiths – Singles Box (7-inch Singles) (* Amazon is saying “discontinued,” but check Rhino UK here)
- The Who – Quadrophenia Limited 2xLP Vinyl Reissue
- Thin Lizzy – Jailbreak Vinyl Reissue
I know there’s a whole lot of vinyl in that list, but that’s not entirely because of my preference; it also has to do with the fact that new album releases for the year pretty much cease in December. Matter of fact, this week is probably the last real week of releases for the year.
