 Listening Post Features for April
 Listen all up in our Posts

Justin Townes Earle Justin Townes Earle-The Good Life
"I have a feeling that in a few years we'll need backstage passes at the Ryman auditorium to get anywhere near him. He's just THAT good." - Chattanooga Free Press

Hot Chip-Made In The Dark
"The third album from the English collective behind some of today's most exciting pop: pounding electronics, galvanizing effects, shimmering melodie"- Details

Moby-Last Night
Moby returns to the dance floor with a vengeance on his new album "Last Night". Spanning hands-in-the-air, smiley-faced rave anthems, cosmic Giorgio Moroder- styled Euro-disco, hip-hop both old school and underground, and downtempo, end-of-the-night ambience, "Last Night" is a dance music tour de force that looks back at Moby's deep roots in the club scene at the same time as it embraces the future.

Morrissey-Greatest Hits
Thirteen Morrissey songs that you know and love, plus two brand new songs - "That's How People Grow Up" & "All You Need Is Me" are as wry & wistful as your old favorites. Go ahead skip to track 6, you'll see! The deluxe version has a bonus CD that contains 9 live songs recorded at the Hollywood Bowl.

Colour Revolt-Plunder, Beg and Curse
"The band exploring Broken Social Scene-tinged dream pop, post-rock meltdowns, Isaac Brock's vocal assaults, and dirty, post-grunge dynamics. There's even a bass line that nods to Surfer Rosa." - Stereogum


 


 *NEW MUSIC NOW* AT VINYLFEVERTAMPA.COM
 NEW ON THE SITE: R.E.M.

R.E.M. Even before they started recording ACCELERATE, Michael Stipe, Peter Buck and Mike Mills of R.E.M. had a clear idea of what they wanted the collection to be: "Turbo-charged," says Stipe. The 11 songs are marked with electricity and edge, challenging themselves to new heights. Accelerate is available as a CD-only package and as a CD+DVD with a 64-page book and the Vincent Moon film 6 Days (a 48-minute film which includes behind-the-scenes footage and performance pieces of various songs on the album) plus two bonus tracks.
