In the past two weeks or coming soon; a lot of T's, but unfortunately no A's.
Also, I finally setup my turntable(s) for the first time in months and I forgot how much better vinyl sounds. Granted you get spoiled with never having to flip a record by using itunes, but it sounds like shit compared to vinyl.
The COOL KIDS - The Bake Sale (chocolate ind) - Good to play this summer at your pool party or for cruising around in your Honda or Acura. (mind you I dig hondas & acuras) Clever album with no longevity.
DOES IT OFFEND YOU, YEAH? - You Have No Idea What You're Getting Yourself Into (almost gold) - This is a decent debut, despite the horrible band name and ridiculously long album title. The sound is trendy and manufactured catering to fans of Klaxons, Ghostland Observatory, the Horrors and even Justice. The direction of this release loses focus with the intro mimicking Justice, but then half-way through the album, "Attack of the 60FT Lesbian Octopus" sounds like an amped-up Cramps track sans vocals. Also features Sebastian Grainger (ex-DFA 1979/Femme Fatale) on vocals for "Let's Make Out".

iKILLCars - Becky EP (self)
JESU - Conquerer (hydrahead)
NO AGE - Nouns 12" + mp3 d/l (subpop) - white vinyl - Public Enemy said "Don't believe the hype", so make your decision yourself on this one. I loved getting all their 12"s and 7"s two years ago, but I still don't understand the hype behind them. (or maybe hype-machine). At times Nouns sounds like everything else 'hot' right now, but then it surprises you on some tracks that it's still just the two dudes from Wives.
TARANTULA - Atlantic (kemado) - WARNING!!!!: very f'in boring. i should have said it was scratched and returned it. I have it on a random playlist of new stuff i have, and every time one of their tracks comes on, I say "what is this garbage" and immediately change it.
TIDES/GIANT - Split LP (level plane) gatefold red & black streaked vinyl - Don't sleep on this release. I am sure Giant has wet dreams involving ISIS.
