Fall season is here, as we head into Labor Day weekend, and we’ve got a lot of interesting new releases! Rising artist Medium Build‘s latest LP is out, and it’s very-much worth your time. Returning after a long break is Faker (read our review of the album here), as well as The Thermals (read our review here). We’ve also got the latest albums Harrison Gordon (read our review of it here) and V Torres (read our exclusive Track by Track of the album). And if you love Andy Frasco & the U.N. like we do, then you’ll be happy to hear his new EP in our list today.
Dazy announced a new EP this week, and dropped a new power-pop gem from it. Punk supergroup Fake Names is back with their first single from their next album, while classic stadium rockers Europe have shared the epic third single from their next album. We’ve got another pop-punk banger from The Paradox, and a fiery new track from Spanish Love Songs. UK troubadour Jake Bugg is back with his first new song in some years, and young reggae star Koffee is bringing us back to the dance floor with her new jam.
British singer/songwriter James Blunt’s latest is a lovely acoustic ballad, and another beloved British figure, Dan Smith from Bastille, has a new project called Misfits Together, and we have their first song. Ashe pays joyful tribute to finding the one on her second new single this year, and Kurt Baker has shared two brand new power-pop bops.
