New Music Tuesday: The King Khan &BBQ Show, Julian Casablancas, Little Dragon and Morissey



Today is a fair to moderate day of new releases. The standout for me is The King Khan & BBQ Show (who are coming to Phoenix in a couple of weeks). I have only heard a couple of songs of the The Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas' new and first solo effort but I dig them in a 80's nostalgic sort of way. The Nirvana live album with be good I am sure but just as good as any other Nirvana live album so unless you are a weird completest or something just listen to the Muddy Banks album you (or your dad) already bought back in 1996. And if you are a real glutton for punishment and want to know what is sounds like when your former heroes disappoint you beyond forgiveness check out Weezer's new collection of ridiculousness Raditude!
