Here are The Wheel’s Still In Spin’s suggested new releases for this week.
The Baseball Project – Volume 1: Frozen Ropes And Dying Quails | Amazon CD
Download “Past Time” (mp3)
Steve Wynn and The Minus 5’s Scott McCaughey teamed together to write an album about the game of baseball. There are songs about Curt Flood, Black Jack McDowell, Mark McGwire, Satchel Paige, Jackie Robinson, and so many others. This album does more name dropping than a rap album. With Peter Buck and Linda Pitmon, the music is catchy and hook laden. The result is a fantastic, summer album.
Cory Chisel & The Wandering Sons – Cabin Ghosts [EP] | Amazon MP3
Download “Home In The Woods” (mp3)
The timbre to Cory Chisel’s voice is reminiscent of Glen Hansard of The Frames and the movie Once. For a live recorded EP, this Americana flared music is eloquently reinforce with clarinet, accordion, subtle electric guitar, and supporting female vocals.
The Dutchess & The Duke – She’s The Dutchess, He’s The Duke | Amazon CD
Download “Reservoir Park” (mp3)
Signed to the Sub Pop sub-label Hardly Art, The Dutchess & The Duke create music that is solidly grounded in 60’s pop influences of jangly folk and blues rock British Invasion bands. Instead of songs about peace, love, and flowers, the songs are about being “sick of hearing everything’s gonna be alright” and declarations of “don’t waste your love on me.”
After the jump, there is a list of more new releases from this week.
