What is out on this #NewMusicFriday?
Take me to the Playlist
The month of May kicks off with new releases from American Football, who return with their fourth self-titled album after 7 years away. Likewise, DIY alt-rockers False Advertising deliver their second album, ‘Sorry Window’. Meanwhile, ‘Exuvia’ from metallic hardcore group Cage Fight sees them explore deeper, more personal themes with a barrage of mosh-ready anthems.
Emerging genre-blending post-hardcore band, Silo look to leave their mark with their debut album, ‘Haze’. Former METZ frontman, Alex Edkins, delivers ‘Hoopla,’ the second album from his Weird Nightmare project, expanding on the lo-fi home recordings of his debut with a wider palette of sounds.
On the heavier side of things, there are new releases from nu-metal mainstays Sevendust (‘One’) and black metal icons Venom (‘Into Oblivion’). Norwegian rockers Heave Blood & Die beef up ‘Burnout Codes’ with a deluxe edition release.
There are also new releases from The Black Keys, Lip Critic, Godsmack, HEALTH, and Bucket out today.
