Ty Segall, The Decemberists, Dr. Dog and Amanda Shires all have announced 2018 albums

I just picked up new albums from Corrosion of Conformity and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club last week. Ben Miller Band and Walking Papers have new albums coming out this week or next. Really looking forward to new albums from Temperance Movement and Monster Magnet in the next couple of months.

I've read Howlin' Rain has an album in the works.

Clutch and Magpie Salute are supposed to be in the studio around now, so there are two to look forward to around the fall.

Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but 6 String Drag's High Hat has finally seen the light of vinyl 20 years later: https://www.musicdirect.com/vinyl/6-Str ... (Vinyl-LP)

Safe to say I'm most looking forward to Struggler
coming out on Cornelius Chapel records.

New Dexateens right? So great.

CCR has some good stuff on the horizon. That Caleb Caudle record will probably be pretty strong.
I'm also aware of another soon-to-be-announced project from them that has great potential, in which I'll probably have some sort of involvement.

Yep; could've sworn I typed "Dexateens'" before Struggler but guess it got ate.
I'm crossing my fingers that I can make the 'teens/Bohannons show at the Earl Saturday night, but we'll see.

Great Peacock- Gran Pavo Real drops March 30

new stephen malkmus & the jicks appears to be on the way soon

Cannot wait for new SMJicks.
Love love love that band.

My favorite release so far this year. I can definitely foresee this being in my top five at year's end, if not the number one spot. I love Mount Moriah and always will but this is Heather McEntire in full bloom. I've also heard rumblings of a new Phil Cook release in June. The shows he and Heather did over the weekend at the Pinhook in Durham to celebrate the release of Lionheart were out of this world.

They also have a new record (Top of the World) due in early March on Schoolkids Records with cover art by Skillet Gilmore (Whiskeytown, Patty Hurst Shifter). If you haven't done so already, you can check out a preview track ("Waste of Time") here.

Coming out March 2 on Matador - can't wait.

Loving that HC McEntire as well. Really beautiful.

You are right on a new Phil Cook too. Not sure about the date, but he was holed up in a studio in WI right around the new year.

theres a new ryan adams song out there today. "baby i love you." sadly not a ronettes cover but i dig the jangle, nicechange of pace from his recent stadium reverb obsession

This explains seeing Shonna in Little Rock.

Richmond Fontaine released an instrumental soundtrack to Willy's new novel, Don't Skip Out on Me. Great contemplation music and definitely recommended to any fans of pedal steel, which Paul Brainerd (as always) plays it heavenly.

Janelle Monae - Dirty Computer out on 27 April

Still need to get the book, but the record is in my top 3 of the year so far.
One of the great bands of my life.
Criminally underrated. WIsh there was more gas in that tank.

New Moondoggies record in April.

Pardon me while I say FUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKK YEEEEEAAAAHHHHHH

Sorry, their website has made it seem like the band was defunct (no tour dates, no updates for awhile). I'm super stoked now

New Wussy song in the link here:

https://www.stereogum.com/1984649/wussy ... /premiere/

out in may. middle america was a solid ballad but this new single rips

Finally snagged the new J Roddy. Great fun, and a bit of a departure from the previous discs.
