New Releases Tuesday (7/25)

Jurassic 5 - Feedback (Interscope)
Ouch...I didn't think Amazon actually printed up negative reviews, but the blurb at the bottom of this release actually says, "There are a few outstanding tracks, but overall this is a hip-hop album that sounds as if it were written by a corporate committee--each song directed at a particular demographic--rather than a mini-manifesto crafted to get your fists pumping and/or your feet moving." I knew the loss of Chali 2na a while back would be a major blow to the group, but I had no idea it would turn out this bad.

New York Dolls - One Day It Will Please Us To Remember Even This (Roadrunner)
After an ugly run in the late 80's/early 90's as lounge blowhard "Buster Poindexter," David Johansen has returned to his bad-ass punk roots and resurrected The New York Dolls...or at least what's left of them (may require registration).

Download: New York Dolls - "Dance Like A Monkey" (MP3)

Spoon - Telephone/Soft Effects(ep) (Merge)
Long out of print, Spoon's debut album from 1996 has been remastered and repackaged with their follow-up EP from the following year, Soft Effects.

Download: Spoon - "The Government Darling" (MP3)

Silversun Pickups - Carnavas (Dangerbird)
Long time RFSL favorite, if you missed last week's review click here, otherwise feast on this:

Silversun Pickups -"Well Thought Out Twinkles" (MP3)
