Menomena: Minesnew

Portland, Ore's Menomena is one strange band. An art-pop trio with a case of personality disorder, the band offers a sound that contains moments of pure beauty, madcap experimentation and smashing energy -- sometimes within the same track.

S. Carey: All We Grownew

All We Grow, the solo debut from Bon Iver drummer S (Sean) Carey, doesn't stray far from Bon Iver territory -- a Wisconsin-bred sort of neo-minimalism that revels in spare, crisp instrumentation.

Interpolnew

For a band that's brought a post-punk cognitive dissonance to DVD-piracy warnings and terrorism watch lists the world over, Interpol sure isn't surprising anyone these days.

Big Boi Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dustynew

Whether it is prurient raps by T.I. on the vamping sex-jam "Tangerine," or emotionally wrought singing by Jamie Foxx on the dramatic "Hustle Blood," or naturally far-out exchanges from George Clinton and Too $hort on the plinking "Fo Yo Sorrows," Big Boi gets plenty of mileage from his guests.
