Artnett Cobb Ballads By Cobb

A powerful and legitimately provocative work, hard edged and finely honed, the album is the sound of a truly American Band a Southern American band speaking on matters that matter. DBT made the choice to direct the Way We Live Now head on, employing realism rather than subtext or symbolism to purge its makers own anger, discontent, and frustration with societal disintegration and the urban/rural divide that has partitioned the country for close to a half-century. Fueled by a just spirit of moral indignation and righteous rage, AMERICAN BAND is protest music fit for the stadiums, designed to raise issues and ire as the nation careens towards its most momentous election in a generation.

Austin’s art-rock punk …And You Will Know Us by the Trail Of Dead return with their 11th album – XI: Bleed Here Now – set for release on June 10th, 2022 via Century Media in Europe and Dine Alone Records in North America.

Groovy little funky band from Milwaukee, with a brassy sound that's a bit like the T.S.U. Tornadoes, but with more vocals. The title cut's a nice goofy track that starts with some guy havin' a fight with his old lady about being in a band, and there's a lot of other nice groovers with this sort of uptempo, upbeat funky style. Other cuts include 'Cash Money', 'I Am A Lonely Man', and 'Cool Days Are Out Of Style'.

Building on forty years years of GBV history, the majestic and triumphant Strut Of Kings is the forty-first album by indie rock royalty Guided By Voices. Largely recorded in Kings County, New York (Brooklyn), the album is perhaps a gesture towards the malevolent “kings” on the world stage. As the “Serene King” waltzes across the battlefield, Emperor Pollard evokes castles, King Kong and strutting roosters, a surreal yet regal journey.

Five years on from the release of their previous record, Austin's beloved art-rock heroes .And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead return with their tenth album - X: The Godless Void and Other Stories. Expansive yet concise, this album nods to the band's traditional touchstones - the feral scree of Sonic Youth, Rush's symphonic anthems, the textured bliss of My Bloody Valentine - while morphing effortlessly into newer forms. The synth-orchestral swell of curtain-raiser "Opening Crescendoes" recalls Hans Zimmer and Tangerine Dream, before "All Who Wander" descends from guitar-soaked high drama into simmering, murky psych.

Southern Rock Opera is the third studio album by the American rock band Drive-By Truckers, released in 2001. Originally released as a double album covering an ambitious range of subject matter from the politics of race to 1970s stadium rock, Southern Rock Opera either imagines, or filters, every topic through the context of legendary Southern band Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Produced by Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy, Alpenglow is the Minnesota-based sextet’s tenth album. The album, named after the optical phenomenon that takes places when the sun casts a reddish glow across the mountains at dawn and dusk, opens with the wistful beauty of “It’s So Hard To Hold On”. The narrator contemplates the passing of time and how imperative it is to savor it while you have it.
