\"20160214_frankie-cosmos-album-art_91\"Frankie Cosmos’\u00a0Next Thing<\/em> is our most spun new record this week! Greta Kline released this LP, her second full length as Frankie Cosmos, on April 1st to waves of love and excitement. Flowing in the same precious, DIY lo-fi vein as earlier releases\u00a0Fit Me In\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Zentropy<\/em>, it’s another collection of tracks that dote on the importance of small moments. Kline amps up from the electronic sounds of\u00a0Fit Me\u00a0<\/em>In<\/em>, brings the bass out a bit and combining it with a louder fleshed out sound from the guitar and drums. It’s still soft though, a thin cotton dress that rests on your skin so gently even when the kit\u00a0is thumping and Kline\u00a0is feeling sinister or truly perplexed by love.<\/p>\n

Following up\u00a0Next Thing\u00a0<\/em>is\u00a0A Mineral Love,\u00a0<\/em>the eighth LP from Bibio, project of UK producer Stephen Wilkinson. This experimental electronic release is an amalgamation of Wilkinson’s beautiful discography. It’s soulful, disco tinged, folktronic, and groovy as hell.\u00a0Number three on our chart this week is Parquet Courts’ with\u00a0Human Performance<\/em>. Digging into Parquet Courts roots, KJHK Music Staff writer Ben Hitz says, “For anyone who has ever felt like a consumer slave, questioned the existence of free will, or wondered if we are all just the sum of the media we consume: Parquet Courts is the band \"humanperf_1_sq-7fc6e8a7043c497e8498695b237f9d277367fa9c-s300-c85\"for you. Their songs are like a slow, soaking rain during a prolonged drought, quenching the thirst for something real, something smart, something wholesome in a desert of superficiality and vapidity.”<\/p>\n

Number four on our chart this week is\u00a0The Story of Fred Short<\/em>, Marco Benevento’s sixth solo LP, released on Royal Potato Family Records. Billed as a pianist, Benevento shows his strengths as a narrative builder and composer on\u00a0The Story of Fred Short<\/em>. The release sifts through disco and funk sounds and imbues them with a raw, psych rock power. A\u00a0seven piece suite makes up the entirety of the B side and explores the story of Fred Short, a mystery of a man who once inhabited what is now Benevento’s property near Woodstock, New York. Closing out our top five is Black Mountain with\u00a0IV.\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0This fourth release from Vancouver progressive psych rockers is described by KJHK Music staff writer Josh Gaston as “a seemingly disparate amalgam of rock music over the last 50 years: late \u201960s psychedelic rock, \u201970s progressive rock and AOR, \u201980s new wave, \u201980s post-punk, \u201990s and \u201900s stoner rock, etc. One can hear intimations of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, and Yes, among many others.”<\/p>\n

New to the chart this week: Cullen Omori with\u00a0New Misery<\/em>, Esperanza Spalding with\u00a0Emily’s D+ Evolution,<\/em> Mike Dillon with\u00a0Functioning Broke<\/em>, and\u00a0Fela Ransome Kuti and His Koola Lobitos with\u00a0Highlife-Jazz And Afro-Soul (1963-1969).<\/em><\/p>\n
