Rocket - Versions of You - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Sun was made for coming out, even though the night is long. Aperture - The Head and the Heart's sixth album and first since signing to Verve Forecast - is the affirming work of a band finding again it's shared footing, reaching unimagined levels of camaraderie and mutual risk as one. With every song fortified by the sense of beginning again, Aperture is The Head and the Heart's most vital and poignant album. Featuring tracks like the album's beautifully arcing opener InchAfter the Setting SunInch and the mighty anthem InchArrow,Inch Aperture is a stunning testament to the collaborative work of a band who decided to let in the light, return to their roots, and forge a new path, together as one.

Corridor is a group from Montreal and Junior is their Sub Pop debut. It's the most dazzling, immediate and inventive album of their young career 39 minutes of darting and dodging guitars, spiraling vocal harmonies, and the complicated, goldenrod nostalgia of a Sunday mid-afternoon. Junior is the band's third full-length and their third recorded with producer Emmanuel Ethier.

R is for Rocket, the quartet's remarkable debut album, out October 3, 2025 via Transgressive Records/ Canvasback is a joyride through sonic terrain that is gloriously loud, anthemic, bombastic and beautiful, with instantly captivating songs that achieve the rare feat of evoking nostalgia while sounding completely new. The band's jagged, fuzzed-out sound has antecedents in '90s guitar bands like Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine, but Rocket are doing something uniquely their own with those touchstones. It's no wonder they are widely considered one of the most promising guitar-forward bands of their generation.
