New album releases, week of 3-29-2005

Part of: New CDs

Beck has the big deal release this week. The #1 album at Amazon, Guero involves the Dust Brothers again, who produced the classic Odelay lo those many years ago. This might be worth a listen.

The most famous person releasing an album this week is Will Smith. I'm all in favor of the guy in general, but music seems like the lesser end of his talents. Anyway, Lost and Found is out this week. Personally, I'd probably be at least slightly more interested in Bushwick Bill's Gutta Mixx.

Oh, and Larry the Cable guy celebrates his Right to Bare Arms. Dang, but he's one messed up cracker. What the hell's wrong with him, anyway?

Unreformed hawkish Hoosier hillbilly Al Barger runs the still squeezin' down the psychodelic Kentucky moonshine at More Things. What with the paranoid religious visions, the Pentecostal music, visions of God and anarchy running amok and such, somebody …
