The Los Angeles Issue
Alice Phoebe Lou, Oblivion

Bruce Springsteen, Nebraska ’82 [Expanded Edition]
With the oft-rumored electric version of Bruce’s unhappiest album as its centerpiece, this five-disc collection helps to inform the maudlin medicine that fills the songwriter’s new biopic.
The Lemonheads, Love Chant
Evan Dando finds a middle ground between nostalgia and the present with his grunge-pop outfit’s latest LP, which isn’t any less messily melancholic than the project’s early-’90s peak.
Rain Phoenix
