AFI, “Silver Bleeds the Black Sun…”

With their internal flame far from being snuffed out, the shapeshifting Californians’ 12th album sounds like a forgotten golden age of new wave.

Midlake, “A Bridge to Far”

The Denton folk-rockers’ second album since returning from a hiatus flits effortlessly between psychedelic rock, folk, and hazy jazz as Eric Pulido continues to steer the ship forward.

Madi Diaz, “Fatal Optimist”

If last year’s Weird Faith was a response to the uncertainty that inspired it, these songs are a profound expression of the emotions unleashed when those fears ultimately came true.
