Hotline TNT, Raspberry Moon

Will Anderson’s debut with a full band exhibits his fondness for crunchy shoegaze while incorporating a stripped-down, folk-referencing sound tinged with melancholic guitar.

Yaya Bey, Do It Afraid

In its 18 brief, blipping songs, the Brooklyn neo-soul artist’s latest venture into old-school rap, acid jazz, soca, and trip-dub is closer to a groove mixtape than a cohesive album.

HAIM, I Quit

The sister trio’s fourth full-length is a summer breakup concept record that’s intimate, powerful, and too scattered within its catharsis.
