The Los Angeles Issue

Glare, Sunset Funeral
Transfixing from start to finish, the South Texas shoegazers’ debut is a dynamic, undulating audio portrait of the ups and downs of existence.

Perfume Genius, Glory
Backed by the incredible team he’s assembled over the years, Mike Hadreas’ seventh release is a folk album that remains as slippery, electrifying, and brilliantly unknowable as its lead single.

Gloin, All of your anger is actually shame (and I bet that makes you angry)
On their second album, the Toronto band taps into the fury of their post-punk forebears with a polished set of psychological insights that feel angry in all the right ways.
A.D. Amorosi

Recorded at the Swiss fest’s Stravinsky Hall with a seven-piece ensemble, the punk icon crams his deeply expansive catalog into one loud bomb-drop.

With the aid of producer T Bone Burnett and an exciting guest list, the Beatle finds a relaxed fit for his surprisingly modern easy-does-it C&W ballads.

Over 30 years after their debut, the Vaseline-lensed electro-pop trio still titillates without any consideration of boundaries as they continue their recent shift toward spectral-sounding gravitas.

Inspired by Christopher Guest’s recent radio play reviving Elvis Costello and T Bone Burnett’s 1985 fictional band, this playful debut album proves that this inside joke still has legs.

The first and still most progressive DEI rock/R&B/Latin-continuum collective continues to revive their catalog with the newly released vinyl and CD collections spanning the era from 1977 to 1994.

Containing 19 disks of remastered studio albums, live recordings, demos, and rarities, this full-career retrospective spotlights the urbane pop-soul legend’s bracing, challengingly romantic songcraft.

Still hard to listen to but impossible to turn away from, the NYC noise-rockers’ damning debut of feminist rage undergoes a clean-up for its tenth anniversary.

The Asheville-based songwriter holds the door open for a handful of artists by showcasing their work and amplifying it by delivering lovely covers.

Four new reissue collections from Tangerine Records spotlight the iconic artist’s forays into C&W, R&B, and gospel—and how he blended these three genres—in the mid-1960s.

40 titles to help you overcome your post-turkey stupor this Friday, including Billie Eilish, Modest Mouse, Kacey Musgraves, U2, Rage Against the Machine, Raekwon, and more.

With over four hours of previously unheard music, these intense live recordings famously portray the sound of one Davis era’s end and another’s beginning.

Teddy Geiger, Lyra Pramuk, and Nina Keith also weigh in on the organization’s latest expansive various-artists collection, which spotlights the trans and non-binary community.

With one side dedicated to icy compu-disco and the other tied to the band’s beyond-punk origin story, this expanded reissue brings new order to the 1986 curio with live recordings, remixes, and more.

These remastered early solo releases are a testament to the breadth of the composer’s innovative sonic and lyrical éclat beyond his more menacing proto-punk work.

The new reissue expands on the lyrical desolation, moody arrangements, and incendiary sonic vibes fueled by post-9/11 Brooklyn that define this debut.

The Irish art-pop icon and former Virgin Prunes bandleader talks God, dogs, and his new album, Ecce Homo.

The Puerto Rican vocalist and producer sounds primed for something romantically and rhythmically new yet soulfully nostalgic and warm on his latest collection of Latin pop.

Co-produced by his son Dhani with a deeply fluid overall bass line, this 50th anniversary collection provides the Beatle’s second solo record plenty more room to breathe.

This five-LP set spotlights how singular the slacker-rockers were as songwriters and offbeat vocal harmonists while putting their out-of-print catalog back into the world where it belongs.

Featuring a remastered sound and plenty of outtakes, demos, and live versions, this celebration of the iconic new wave band’s debut is equally notable for its flip-top box design and 80-page hardcover book.
