Umm ... Dropnew
The name may scream Rolling Stones, but Paint It Black are a screaming, tough-as-nails punk band, though their new album eerily explodes into foreign territory while still looking back to the genre's undiluted ideals.

Too $hort's Latests Falls Shortnew
Get Off the Stage's ten songs mostly regurgitate past work; it's hard to believe the rapper has never made a song called "Broke Bitch" before.
