Little Old You (Childrens)
The Okee Dokee Brothers are going back to basics on their new album with an acoustic backyard set from the heart. Banjo and guitar take the lead on these playful songs full of life and the mystery of the natural world. It's a big bucket full of sticks, mud and cosmic wonder. Joe and Justin continue to remind us that we are both silly and wise, young and old, and infinitely big in all our little ways

King of the World (Country)
“This album is about getting back to my country roots,” says Currington. “It all started when I went to lunch with my buddy Carson Chamberlain – we worked on the first five albums together. We were just talking about life and catching up since I had not seen him in about ten years. The conversation led us to want to make an album together again and from there it was pure excitement.” Currington co-wrote multiple tracks on the album alongside legendary songwriters like Scotty Emerick and Dean Dillon. Other contributors include Paul Overstreet, Ben Hayslip, and Troy Jones, who previously worked with Currington on top hits including “People Are Crazy” and “Pretty Good At Drinking Beer.”

Lux (Latin)
Lux is the fourth studio album by Spanish singer Rosalía. It was recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra under the conduction of Daníel Bjarnason. The album features guest appearances by Björk, Carminho, Dougie F, Estrella Morente, Sílvia Pérez Cruz, Yahritza y su Esencia, and Yves Tumor. Lux was described by a press release as exploring lyrical themes of "feminine mystique, transformation, and spirituality", with its songs inspired by the lives of various female saints, including Hildegard of Bingen, Rabia Al-Adawiya, and Miriam. Its track listing is split across four movements, with lyrics in 14 languages, each corresponding to a different female saint. A significant portion of the album's creation, which took between two and three years overall, was dedicated to learning how to sing in the various languages. Rosalía often started songs by sketching out rough lyrics with Google Translate before taking her drafts to professional translators and phoneticians.

Silver Bleeds the Black Sun ... (Pop/Rock)
AFI continues their legacy of reinvention with a bold new chapter, reuniting their post-punk and death rock influences from the late '70s and '80s. Departing from their usual writing process, they began with a conversation on breaking new ground. The result is a dreamy, dark, and ethereal sound, grand yet biting, that reflects both their roots and evolution, offering a fresh take that's unmistakably AFI, yet unlike anything they've done before.

Beautiful Chaos (Pop/Rock)
Beautiful Chaos, the sophomore EP from international pop group Katseye, kicks off with the cacophonous "Gnarly" -- a head-rattling, pulse-pounding dose of noise that could have been crafted by M.I.A. two decades prior. The set quickly veers into romantic Latin territory with "Gabriela" and then hyperpop-lite on "Gameboy" and "Mean Girls." The five-track effort ends in under 15 minutes with another riot of energy that coincidentally shares a name with the aforementioned electro star, "M.I.A." Upon release, Beautiful Chaos entered the U.S. Top Four and the South Korean Top Ten.

The album received widespread acclaim from critics, who praised the lyricism, cohesiveness, and production, and even noted its messy and confusing nature as a positive.
