Garbage: 'Not Your Kind of People'new
The opening chords of the latest album from Shirley Manson and Co. — released on the band’s own label — sound like the most epic Megaman game ever to hit your Nintendo.

Ruby Dee & The Snakehandlers: Live From Austin Texasnew
Walking bass lines. Check. Quaint lyrics alluding to a bygone era. Check. A song about slick hair. Check. Ruby Dee and The Snakehandlers have compiled a "best of" collection for this live album, but it comes off more as rockabilly paint-by-numbers.

Sonic Youth's 'Simon Werner a Disparu'new
The newest release from this weathered New York City fixture is the score for the French film of the same name directed by Fabrice Gobert. The recording is a disjointed trek through classic Sonic Youth hooks, with the inevitable valleys of meandering riffs that worm their way into the wet dreams of ambient music connoisseurs.
