Albums of interest to stream this week:
Recommended:
Bat For Lashes – The Haunted Man
OK, not the full album but a six-track stream featuring enough to suggest that the Natasha Khan has upped her game into more experimental pop.
Chelsea Wolfe – Unknown Rooms: A Collection of Acoustic Songs
Sargent House artist releases a collection of Cat Power-esque gothic folk.
Dam Mantle – Brothers Fowl
Intricate and idiosyncratic album that demands exploration.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor – Allelujah! Don’t Bend! Ascend!
I was all excited about listening to the first Godspeed album in ten years but I don’t think I want what they’re offering any more.. You might though.
Metz – Metz
Furious rock album on Sub Pop.

Patrick Wolf – And Sundark River Light
Recorded and repackaged songs on double CD from Wolf’s 10 years as an artist.
Two Fingers – Stunt Rhythms
Amon Tobin’s uncompromising big bass and beats album. Not a million miles from the sound of American dubstep.
Other full album listens of interest:
Jason Lytle – Dept. Of Disappearance
“Lytle’s second solo album since he pulled the plug on Grandaddy in 2006 and the Modesto, Calif., native doesn’t stray much from his sonic comfort zone. “
