This new single (mixed by Nigel Godrich, Radiohead\u2019s favourite studio guy) evokes all the feels from from <em>Sea Change<\/em> (2002) and <em>Morning Phase<\/em> (2015).

Modest Mouse, <em>Picking Dragons\u2019 Pockets<\/em> (Glacial Pace Recordings)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been almost five since Modest Mouse had a new album (note the name of their label), but that absence has comes to an end with a couple of singles. Look How Far\u2026 was released in March, and now we have this track. An Eraser and a Maze, MM\u2019s eighth album and their first as an indie act in more than 20 years, will be here on June 5. Fun fact: This started as an Isaac Brock solo album before he invited the rest of the band in.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Modest Mouse - Picking Dragons&#039; Pockets (Official Visualizer)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SL8JuRgEajs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Show Me the Body, <em>Dance in the USA<\/em> (Loma Vista\/Concord)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Living in the US is not an easy thing right now. Show Me the Body, a post-hardcore band from NYC (est. 2009), understands this very, very well. Pay attention to lyrics like \u201ca doll on a sting.\u201d The album,<em> Alone Together<\/em> expands on those themes.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Show Me The Body - Dance In The USA (Official Music Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LjJuRAR-Ik4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Albums<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>1.

Atreyu\u2019s second act, which began in 2014 after a three-year break, and produced the band\u2019s tenth album, which they started teasing with singles last September. The current single features Max Cavalera of Sepultura. The louder you play this, the better.

Foo Fighters, <em>Your Favourite Toy<\/em> (Roswell\/RCA)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re now up to an even dozen Foo Fighters studio albums. Not bad for a band led by the surviving member of Nirvana that no one expected to do anything once the band broke up. Like most of the albums this millennium, this one was record at the Foos\u2019 private 606 Studios in Van Nuys, although tracks were also laid down in Dave\u2019s home studio. Interesting: There\u2019s a new production team here. It was co-produced by the band and engineer Oliver Roman, meaning that it\u2019s the first time Greg Kurstin hasn\u2019t been behind the desk for a Foo Fighters album since <em>Sonic Highways<\/em> in 2014. Oh, and let\u2019s not forget new drummer, Ilan Rubin, too.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Foo Fighters - Of All People (Lyric Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rD8Gtp2r6t4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>3.
