Here are The Wheel’s Still In Spin’s suggested new releases for this week.
Delay Trees – Delay Trees | MP3
Download “Cassette 2012” (mp3)
Download “About Brothers” (mp3)
Delay Trees, a quartet from Finland, layer guitars and synths in a lush dreamscape of engaging pop music. Waves of elusive sounds gently ride these melodic songs.
Joan of Arc – Life Like | CD
Download “Love Life” (mp3)
This intricately judicious album showcases a band doing what it does best with its core sound. Recorded with Steve Albini, the guitars, bass, and drums interlock with precision.
Raphael Saadiq – Stone Rollin’ | CD
Download “Stone Rollin’” (mp3)
The former singer of Tony! Toni! Toné! is back with another album of classic soul music. This set drips with a retro sound that perfectly captures the energy of the original R&B and soul revues.
Here are a few songs from other albums that were close to making the list of recommendations:
EMA – “The Grey Ship” (mp3) from Past Life Martyred Saints
The Horror The Horror – “Believe in Magic” (mp3) from Wilderness
