Music Monday — What are you listening to? (New Music Edition)

cover image source: Red Hot Chili Peppers

For this week's topic, I'd like us to share music that is new. To further define those boundaries, I think anything from 2022 is fair game. If it's a new recording of an old song, that counts! Just do your best to pick out something new and let's hear it. 🙌

This album has some really iconic lyricism with excellent delivery. I usually love Kendrick's music due to his lyricism, hope you like it.

Recently (re)discovered the Technical-Death-Metal Beyond Creation and all their albums are looping in my spotify all the time in the last couple of weeks!

Their fretless bass is mindblowing!

Wooaaaa! That fretless bassist is indeed mindblowing. 🤯

I've not listened to much technical death metal before, but damn that was fun! And respect for those musicians! As a guitar player, I'm looking at these string players and wishing I had that level of control over my hands. I love all the tapping runs that that they do! Also, that drummer is a machine lol.

some well-known artists from the past are releasing albums in this 2022:

  • RedHotChiliPepper - Unlimited Love
  • Muse - Will of the People

Heck yeah!!

These are all awesome comebacks. 🙌 Side note: I saw Red Hot Chili Peppers live a few weeks back and they completely rocked it.

As for other comebacks, I really dig The Mars Volta's new album, appropriately titled The Mars Volta.

I'm sure others will come to mind... I'll come back and drop'em here when they do! 😁

it's so unique that the comeback album name is a self-titled of the band.
mostly self-titled album is every artist first album.

Forreal! I'm trying to think of other examples... I feel like there is another noteworthy one out there.

EDIT: Blur!! Their fifth album... granted it's not really a comeback album.

I'm slowly making my way through your suggestions and enjoying the heck out of'em. 🙌

Right now, I'm tuning into Brody and the Grodies and they got me cracking up! 😆

I'm loving all the many different angles of punk ya have shown here. Now, I know who to come to for my punk music!

I've really been digging the new(ish) album A Light for Attracting Attention by The Smile... here's the first song off of it:

Been on a big Radiohead kick recently and The Smile has two Radiohead members Thom Yorke (vocals, guitar, bass, keys) and Jonny Greenwood (guitar, bass, keys) — the album is very much like a Radiohead album and that ain't a complaint.

Today Apple Music suggested me Troubled Man by Milky Chance.
🎧 Liked it and I've listened to it five more times already :)

Ooooo, this is really chill! I like the low-key guitars on top of that pulsing beat.

Also, seeing that the song is called "Troubled Man", I gotta point to Marvin Gaye's excellent soul tune of nearly the same name, "Trouble Man":

New but it's a cover of a old song. Nathan Evans the guy that sung Wellerman the sea shanty has released a version of Drunken Sailor.

Haha, gotta love Drunken Sailor — that's a fun tune! And so wild that they made it into a club banger lol.

So, I got one for you to check out now... Keith Richards and Tom Waits singing "Shenandoah" off the album 'Son Of Rogues Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys'.

It's also a sea shanty!
