This Week's Interesting CD Releases
US releases from three hyped UK acts head this week's list of CD releases. The Kaiser Chiefs' Yours Truly, Angry Mob, Klaxons' Myths Of The Near Future, and Mika's Life In Cartoon Motion have all generated a decent amount of hype, and are available tomorrow in the US.
Other strong recommendations include Kate Havnevik's Melankton, The Fall's Reformation Post T.L.C., Merzbow's Merzbear, the Ponys' Turn the Lights Out, Small Sails' Similar Anniversaries, Grant-Lee Phillips' Strangelet, and Walker Kong's That's What I Call People.
