New Releases for October 8th, 2021

BADBADNOTGOOD TALK MEMORY CD/LP

Talk Memory is by some distance their most ornate and grandiose album – rife with lush strings, lengthy tracks, and a more improvised, though still generally structured feel. One of the band’s hallmarks was their tight, controlled rhythm – a trait that undoubtedly derived from their myriad hip-hop influences.” - Pop Matters

VIOLENT FEMMES WHY DO BIRDS SING CD/LP

“The Violent Femmes had a remarkable run of consistently solid albums starting with their breakthrough 1983 self-titled record up through 1991’s Why Do Birds Sing?, their remarkable fifth effort. In honor of the album’s 30th anniversary, Craft Recordings is re-releasing this one on vinyl as well as on a double CD and digital format with previously unreleased outtakes and alternate takes of these songs.” - New Noise

JAMES BLAKE FRIENDS THAT BREAK YOUR HEART LP

“‘Friends That Break Your Heart’ stuns in how unexpected it is. Blake could have gone anywhere after his blissed-out 2019 LP ‘Assume Form’, and he did: the ‘Before’ and ‘Covers’ EPs followed last winter, and the former reconnected with Blake’s roots in dance music in a full circle moment that spoke to his strength as a vulnerable lyricist and his skill as a producer.” - NME

NOTORIOUS B.I.G. READY TO DIE LP

“The album that reinvented East Coast rap for the gangsta age, Ready to Die made the Notorious B.I.G. a star, and vaulted Sean "Puffy" Combs' Bad Boy label into the spotlight as well. Today it's recognized as one of the greatest hardcore rap albums ever recorded, and that's mostly due to Biggie's skill as a storyteller.” - AllMusic

KEVIN MORBY NIGHT AT THE LITTLE LOS ANGELES LP

“Morby recorded [these] demos at “The Little Los Angeles,” the back shed of his home, in the summer and winter of 2017 and 2018. The 10-track collection reveals Kevin’s songwriting process by presenting the initial sketches of Sundowner.” - Jam Base
