TV on the Radio released their third album 'Dear Science,' on the 23rd, but the good reviews were coming in well before that ('a masterful future tableau' etc...). Pick yourself up a copy if you haven't already and be sure to check out 'Family Tree' either way.
This next one came in a little under the radar for me, but Mogwai released 'Hawk is Howling' their 6th studio album on the 22nd. To commemorate this special time, here's 'punk rock:' the opening track from the highly, highly excellent 1999 album, 'Come On Die Young' played over the Iggy Pop interview it samples.
and if you like your guitars loud and your songs lasting upwards of 4 minutes, you really should subscribe to the Mogwai podcast....really (it hasn't been updated in a while, but highly worth it)
and finally, the 22nd also saw the release of Ladyhawke's self titled debut album through Modular Records... prepare to have this song stuck in your head for a long long long long time.
