The Invisible Band [EXTRA TRACKS]
Listen to "Pipe
Dreams"

Exciter
Depeche Mode
After flailing through much of the '90s, one of the powerhouses of the
'80s return with a flourish. The autobiographical Exciter
is involving both lyrically and musically--a development stalwart fans
certainly hoped for, but couldn't have counted on.
Listen
to "Dream On"

Lions
Black Crowes
Producer Don Was was brought aboard to help the Robinson boys and
their cohorts beef up their sound and get in touch with their
hard-rock side. Mission accomplished! Lions
rocks with a nastiness not heard since their early days.
Listen to
"Lickin'"

Zoom
Electric Light Orchestra
E.L.O. leader Jeff Lynne is back in the fold for this comeback
effort. This 13-song return to form proves he still has a knack for
dressing up Beatles-inspired pop with good-time grandiosity.

Anytime
Leon Redbone
The ageless Mr. Redbone returns with his latest selection of artifacts
from the attic. Delving into the oeuvres of Emmett Miller and Jelly
Roll Morton, among others, Redbone leaves his own mark on these
dust-covered gems.
Listen to "Sweet Substitute"

Poses
Rufus Wainwright
With his sophomore release, wunderkind Rufus Wainwright scales back
the rich instrumentation and lyrical romanticism that marked his
critically hailed debut. One interesting development: he covers a tune
by his old man, Loudon III.
Listen to
"Shadows"
Live at the BBC
captures the Beatles during their rockin'
and rollin' days on the Beeb. Check it out in our
Beatles
Store.
Hawthorne,
CA is a double-disc anthology that serves up
harmony-rich rarities and audio vérité dialog
from the early years of the Beach Boys.
Rock reissues and
retrospectives
Chronicle, Vol.
1 collects 20 smash hits by one of the great
commercial (and critical) juggernauts of the
'60s--Creedence Clearwater Revival. Check it out along with
the rest of their
classic
catalog.
There's
certainly a novelty aspect to Hayseed Dixie's
A Hillbilly
Tribute to AC/DC ("Highway to Hell" gets the
high, lonesome treatment), but the music is sprightly and
well played.
"The
thinking man's heavy-metal band" return with
Curse of the
Hidden Mirror, their 1970s classic-rock
heritage flashing like a badge of honor.
Lone
Star chanteuse Shea Seger's
May St.
Project deftly displays the skills of a
young and gifted singer who's one part Fiona Apple, one
part Beck.
Doyle
Bramhall's
Welcome serves up
Texas blues-rock spiced with a generous dash of Hendrix
licks. Bramhall proves the Southwest remains a stronghold
for power-packin' pickers.
The
Continental Drifters keep the spirit of classic California
folk-rock alive with
Better
Day.
The Ramones, Elvis Costello, and
Love are among the prominent rock artists who've been
chronicled as part of Rhino Records' impressive reissue
program.
Weezer are back! Download "Hash Pipe" for a blast of the clever pop punk that made them famous--and try to wipe the smile off your face.

sounds you like, love, and loathe on our
