This month seems to just improve significantly from week to week in terms of new releases, as once again we’re overwhelmed with some great albums. Many of which come from some well known names including TV on the Radio’s latest, Dear Science; Jenny Lewis’ second solo effort, Acid Tongue; Mogwai’s The Hawk is Howling, and Blitzen Trapper’s Furr.

There are also a couple of albums from some lesser known bands that have piqued my interest after hearing a couple of songs while compiling this week’s Graboid, as Starf*cker’s self-titled album and Nagisa Ni Te’s Yosuga will be receiving a lot more attention in the coming week.

    Just wondered, why did you post Bounce That to accompany the Girl Talk release? That was off his last album Night Ripper not from Feed the Animals. Unless of course it was deliberate, that song is amazing!
