Interpol: “Interpol”
New York’s own Interpol has released their long-awaited 4th album. Compared to their 2007 album “Our Love to Admire”, their self-titled album explores dark musical landscapes layered in depth and intensity. No one song draws attention to itself which speaks for the solidarity of the album as a whole. Overall, if you’re an Interpol fan, pick up the album. It is a good addition to their 3 previous albums.

Goo Goo Dolls: “Something For The Rest of Us”
“Something For The Rest of Us”, written and recorded over the last few years is another of Goo Goo Dolls works of art. John Rezeznik does a wonderful job of writing albums that deals with the everyday events that all of us deal with, which is probably why they are one of the few bands remaining from the 1980′s. “Something For The Rest of Us” was created to tell the story of the rest of us, so in a sense, this album was written for you!
