Mostly uptempo rockers this week. A notable exception at the bottom for a very important reason.

“Positive Charge” – The Gaslight Anthem
The first new GSA song in nine years is a little underwhelming to me. Brian Fallon’s vocals sound very different from how they used to sound, which makes a huge difference.

“Days Move Slow” – Bully
The new Bully album is going to be a monster.

“Binge” – DEADLETTER
Starting to sense some buzz building for these kids.

“Chad and Stacey” – Guardian Singles
This is not your typical New Zealander music.

“The Big Mess” – Tanlines
It’s almost tan line season!

“My Coco” – stellastarr*
I remember when it seemed like stellastarr* were going to be massive.

“Sundown” – Gordon Lightfoot
Man Gordon could write a song. “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” is my personal favorite, but since I share it with you most Novembers, I decided to go with his 1974 #1 hit. RIP to one of the greatest voices of the 1970s.
