This Is Our Science (2011)
New album from Minneapolis emcee who blends hip hop with indie rock, electro, and some blues. Imagine a younger version of Beck, but with more of a hip hop edge. I really liked his 2008 album
Promegranate so I have high expectations for this one.
Uncle Acid And The Deadbeats -
Blood Lust (2011)
So yeah... I grabbed this one off the name alone. From what I've heard it's a huge throwback to the old doom metal and psychedelic rock. Will this be an album that gets it right like last year's
Opus Eponymous by Ghost, or will it just be a band trying to ride their coattails? Soon I will find out.
