"Brighter days are up ahead," declares Dwight Yoakam on the title track of his new album Brighter Days (Via Records/Thirty Tigers), his first release of new original material in nine years. Written and recorded over the last three years, Brighter Days features 12 brand-new songs written/co-written by Yoakam, as well as two seemingly disparate covers of �Keep On The Sunny Side� by the Carter Family and �Bound Away� by Cake, artfully woven into the same body of work in the unmistakable style that could only be Dwight Yoakam. The infectious lead single �I Don�t Know How To Say Goodbye (Bang Bang Boom Boom),� was written by Yoakam specifically for a collaboration with self-proclaimed Dwight Yoakam superfan, Post Malone. At once timeless and timely, in fact downright cowpunk-tual, Yoakam self-produced Brighter Days, blending a modern reverence for the history of country music with the pioneering rock and roll spirit of California. The result creates a sense of craftsmanship and immediacy that captures the quintessential Dwight Yoakam �cool� that has separated the two-time Grammy winner from his country contemporaries since the start of his legendary career. As usual, Yoakam�s lyrics throughout the album are both deceivingly effortless and poignant. Brighter Days was mixed by world-class engineer Chris Lord-Alge and is slated for release Nov 15, 2024.

This led to everyone asking the most prevalent question of the summer: �Is somebody gonna match my freak?� �Quantum Baby is about getting to know me on a deeper level. It's about exploring who I am as a person and who I am as an artist. I�ve never been one to be put into a box, so the name Quantum Baby encompasses all the different parts that make up who I am as a creative,� says Tinashe, describing the album as �forward, hot and lots of bass!�

After The Rainbow Children release and before the release of the One Nite Alone� studio album, Prince embarked on a tour of the same name. However, as opposed to the intimacy of the largely solo One Nite Alone� album, this upbeat trek through theaters in North America featured the full talents of Prince�s ever-expanding New Power Generation band. Members at the time included drummer John Blackwell, keyboardist Renato Neto and longtime collaborators like bassist Rhonda Smith and a horn section that included saxophonists Eric Leeds, Candy Dulfer and Maceo Parker. Taken from the highlights of 9 different shows in March and April of 2002 and clocking in at over 2 hours, the resulting 4 LP collection One Nite Alone�Live! was the first official live album of Prince�s career and the 27 tracks included feature selections from The Rainbow Children as well as Prince�s extensive back catalog, played with the full NPG as well as several solo piano excursions (�When U Were Mine,� �Raspberry Beret,� �Adore,� �The Beautiful Ones,� �Nothing Compares 2 U�). This release marks the first time that it�s available on vinyl.

This 2 LP release documents Prince�s mythic late-night after show performances. Never available as physical stand-alone release and only available originally on CD as part of the One Nite Alone box set exclusive to NPG Music Club members, the album features an hour of amazing jams and includes guest appearances by George Clinton and Musiq Soulchild.

As the world greeted the promise of a new millennium, even Prince was experiencing a great sense of transformation. In 2000, he announced the reclamation of his birth name after seven years as an unpronounceable symbol. In 2001, after a period of study and debate with his friend and mentor Larry Graham (former bassist for Sly and The Family Stone), Prince converted to the Jehovah�s Witness faith. These transformations bore fruit with the release of The Rainbow Children at the end of 2001. Billed as �controversial� in its press materials for its open spiritual message, the jazz-inspired record was Prince�s first fully independent release, issued without any major label backing. One of its songs, �The Work, Pt. 1,� was released by Prince as a free download on the file-sharing service Napster; this move, along with direct-to-consumer stream and download options on the NPG Music Club, made Prince a digital music visionary. The Rainbow Children is a continued favorite among Prince�s most fervent admirers due to its complex musical narrative, its use of live drums and a full horn section, and the striking album art by artist Cbabi Bayoc, which still hangs in the hallowed halls of Paisley Park today. The CD has long been out of print and the original vinyl was incredibly limited and copies fetch hundreds of dollars. This new double LP vinyl edition comes on limited edition crystal clear vinyl packaged in gatefold packaging along with an exclusive Prince rainbow slipmat.

In ten deftly drawn sonic portraits, Earle and his band the Dukes explore the historical role of coal in rural communities. More than merely a question of jobs and income, mining has provided a sense of unity and meaning, patriotic pride and purpose.

Merritt explains his thinking behind the Quickies concept: �I�ve been reading a lot of very short fiction, and I enjoyed writing 101 Two-Letter Words, the poetry book about the shortest words you can use in Scrabble. And I�ve been listening to a lot of French baroque harpsichord music. Harpsichord doesn�t lend itself to languor. So I�ve been thinking about one instrument at a time, playing for about a minute or so and then stopping, and I�ve been thinking of narratives that are only a few lines long.

Set My Heart On Fire Immediately is the fifth studio album from Perfume Genius that will be released May 15th on Matador Records. It sees artist and musician Mike Hadreas re-teaming with GRAMMY-nominated producer Blake Mills and features contributions from musicians Jim Keltner, Pino Palladino and Matt Chamberlin. It was recorded in Los Angeles, where Perfume Genius settled in 2017 with longtime partner and musical collaborator Alan Wyffels. 'I wanted to feel more open, more free and spiritually wild,' says Hadreas, 'and I'm in a place now where those feelings are very close-- but it can border on being unhinged. I wrote these songs as a way to be more patient, more considered -- to pull at all these chaotic threads hovering around me and weave them in to something warm, thoughtful and comforting.'

Between The Buried And Me is the self-titled first studio album by the GRAMMY-nominated progressive metal five-piece. Formed in 2000, the band originally released this album with Lifeforce Records in 2002 and soon after gained the attention of iconic Chicago-based record label Victory Records. Victory signed the band and re-released the record as an enhanced CD in 2004. Described as �one of the fiercest albums in the hardcore community� by AllMusic, this formative album set the band up to be a key player in the evolving hardcore scene. While the album was praised for its brave blend of mathcore, grindcore and death metal elements into their already unique sound, the lyrics also set them apart from their peers. The band addressed their thoughts on controversial topics ranging from politics to organized religion � issues not often addressed in this music scene at this time. This pressing has been newly remixed and remastered to commemorate the band�s 20th anniversary.
