Keeping you up-to-date with the week's hottest album releases
Artist: Jack White
Album: No Name
Label: Third Man Records
Genres: Blues rock, garage rock revival, punk blues
Jack White’s latest untitled album was originally available for just one day in July but can now be found in all the normal places. Although the release flew under the radar, the music certainly doesn’t (much like this week’s other picks).
Artist: Smashing Pumpkins
Album: Aghori Mhori Mei
Label: Martha’s Music
Genres: Alternative rock
Smashing Pumpkins have been on a rollercoaster since their 2006 reunion, suffering failed projects and member changes. At times, this record may sound unhinged, but it represents stability for the band, something which the fans have been waiting for.
Artist: X
Album: Smoke & Fiction
Label: Fat Possum
Genres: Punk rock, alternative rock
This is (supposedly) the final studio album from 80s pioneers X. Their sound may not have aged too well, but this collection of songs will definitely please their existing fans, as will their farewell tour.
