S<\/span>pring is in full effect here on the west coast, and we’re getting flooded with a ton of great new music, particularly early singles from upcoming LPs by Passion Pit, Alabama Shakes, Twin Shadow, Death Cab For Cutie, Hot Chip and more. Even long dormant bands Blur and Modest Mouse are previewing new recordings. We have full albums out now from Sleater-Kinney, Father John Misty, Panda Bear, and Bjork, and I’ve sprinkled in some bands you may be less familiar with. Check out Pond, Lower Dens, Diagrams, Saint Motel, Lost Lander, and Natalie Prass.<\/p>\n
\nYou can view the YouTube playlist below. I also have links to the Spotify, Rdio, and Amazon Music Store playlists if you prefer to listen to them that way.<\/p>\n
