This Week's Interesting Music Releases - January 31st, 2012
Legendary poet and singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen releases a new album this week, Old Ideas.
The Big Sleep's Nature Experiments, Gotye's Making Mirrors, and The Pines: Dark So Gold are all albums I have heard and can strongly recommend.
One Model Nation's Total Werks Vol. 1 (1969-1977) is the companion music to Dandy Warhols frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor's new graphic novel, One Model Nation.
Tally Ho! Flying Nun's Greatest Bits is a 2-CD, 40-track compilation from the New Zealand label with contributions by The Clean, The Verlaines, Tall Dwarfs, and many others.
