Sweet Apple, the band of dispersed rockers from groups you've heard before-Dinosaur Jr.., Cobra Verde and Witch-is back! THE GOLDEN AGE OF GLITTER is a 10-song power-pop masterpiece featuring J Mascis, Tim Parnin, John Petkovic and Dave Sweetapple that travels a wide swathe of musical styles; almost as wide as the geography represented by the band. The album was recorded from California to Massachusetts, with Cleveland in the middle. Along the way, Screaming Trees/Queens of the Stone Age's Mark Lanegan and Guided By Voices' Robert Pollard showed up to do some killer guest duets! And, yes, Sweet Apple cashed in their frequent flyer miles for a trip full of sunny, dark, moody and heavy sounds the kind we've heard these guys do in other bands, but never before like this!! Album Tracks 1. Wish You Could Stay (A Little Longer) 2. Reunion 3. Boys in Her Fan Club 4. Let's Take the Same Plane 5. Another Desert Skyline 6. I Surrender 7. Troubled Sleep 8. We Are Ruins 9. You Made a Fool Out of Me 10. Under the Liquor Sign

If Rick Shea's new record Love & Desperation had a motto, it would likely be, 'Necessity is the mother of invention.' The Southern California Americana artist's 12th album - due from Anaheim, CA-based Tres Pescadores Records on Oct. 16/23 as a physical and digital - is the product of unique recordings sessions that were the product of the unique challenges facing musicians in the year 2020. Part autobiography and part commentary, the songs are a reflection of these modern times. Album Tracks 1. Blues, Stop Knockin' at My Door 2. Blues at Midnight 3. (Down at the Bar at) Gypsy Sally's 4. Love and Desperation 5. She Sang of the Earth 6. Big Rain Is Comin', Mama 7. Tender Hearted Love 8. Juanita, Why Are You So Mean 9. The World's Gone Crazy 10. Nashville Blues 11. Mystic Canyon 12.
