Hey there music lover! You like new stuff? Great! You’ve stumbled into the perfect corner of the internet. Each week all sorts of goodies are unleashed onto the masses and this is where they come to be judged. I’ll tell ya what’s good, what’s bad, and what’s a waste of your precious time. So strap on your headphones and let’s take a ride!
The Big News
You know why I like writing this column? Because, even thought it might not be the most read new music column on the internet, it does have the most badass motherfuckin’ readers. Evidence? Fine. The New Music Weekend featuring the new Kanye West record received almost no views. The one featuring the new Yoko Ono? The second most read of this year so far. That’s awesome and gives me a warm feeling in the cockles of my heart. I feel so good I’ll go ahead and reward y’all with a little more from her highness, Lady Yoko
Oh, and the new Macklemore & Ryan Lewis joint, This Unruly Mess I’ve Made, drops this week. It is the long awaited follow-up to the duo’s 2012 debut The Heist which soared to platinum status propelled by the success of “Thrift Shop” and “Same Love”. Seems like such a long time ago.
Metal-a-pocalypse
Thrash brahs Anthrax return with yet another release, For All Kings, their 11th and first in five years.
And long lasting Canadian rockers Anvil blast back with Anvil is Anvil, the trio’s 16th release.
Legendary Legends
Blues babe Bonnie Raitt comes out of hiding with her latest release Dig In Deep.
Solo Suckers
Steve Mason, who, once upon a time, was in the brilliant Beta Band, unveils his third solo effort Meet the Humans
Arcade Fire violinist Sarah Neufeld unveils her sophomore solo effort, The Ridge.
RIP
This is the part of the show where we say goodbye to those who’ve played their last solo. Rest in peace and rock on, brothers and sisters.
Vi Subversa of Poison Girls.
Paul Gordon of New Radicals. Always liked this song.
Lennie Baker of Sha Na Na.
Greek singer/songwriter Pantelis Pantelidas

My Recommendation
Not so much recommending it as pointing it out… here’s the new The 1975.
And don’t forget about the new Emitt Rhodes.
Next Week
Tune in next week, same new music time, same new music channel, for new stuff from: the Violent Femmes!!!
