Hype

Music recommendations for music snobs and general fans alike.

<em>Let Live and Let Ghosts</em>, Jukebox the Ghost

Let Live and Let Ghosts, Jukebox the Ghost

If you decided to up your dose of Zoloft this week, I recommend that you hold out and try this alternate treatment. Just hit “play,” then hit “repeat,” and enjoy Let Live and Let Ghosts by Jukebox the Ghost.

<em>First Love</em>, Emmy the Great

First Love, Emmy the Great

If you generally associate folk music with sweet lyrics about lost love, new love, and puppy love, then you may not be ready for Emmy the Great or her really, um, great debut album, First Love.

<em>Gigantis</em>, Holy Rolling Empire

Gigantis, Holy Rolling Empire

On March 3rd, the Arizona-based band, Holy Rolling Empire, will release their debut album, Gigantis, on us all.

<em>Davy</em>, Coconut Records

Davy, Coconut Records

The second Coconut Records album, Davy, reminds us that Jason Schwartzman is more talented than we are. With a successful acting career, a screenwriting credit alongside Wes Anderson, and two albums that hold a special place in our hearts, Schwartzman unintentionally puts most of us to shame– and we like it.
