Some new songs from groups that still seem like representatives of new music, but have actually been putting out songs for a long time.<\/p>\n

\u201cBorn and Razed\u201d – The Raconteurs. Not a huge fan of the new album – it\u2019s ok, should be better – but this is easily the stand-out track.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan\u2019t Stop You\u201d – Pete Yorn. I shared his other new single a few weeks back. I find this one to be both stronger and more reminiscent of his classic sound. Speaking of, I listened to his debut album musicforthemorningafter<\/em> a couple nights ago. It is still amazing and is one of the albums that helped move my tastes a bit in the early 2000s. I\u2019ll never understand why Yorn wasn\u2019t a bigger star.<\/p>\n \u201cNo Bullets Spent\u201d – Spoon. Spoon has been putting music out for 33 years now! I didn\u2019t discover them until 2002\u2019s Kill the Moonlight<\/em> – \u201cThe Way We Get By\u201d was on my favorite songs of the decade list – and that was their fourth studio album. Jeez. They are finally releasing a greatest hits compilation and this is the obligatory new track. It sounds what a Spoon track should sound like.<\/p>\n \u201cDenver Haircut\u201d – The Hold Steady. THS has been releasing a series of singles over the past couple years and most people figured they were one-off efforts. The band just announced that those singles will all be packaged with five new songs on an album out later this summer. It\u2019s their first album in five years, and is the first with their full original lineup since 2008. Like the Spoon track, this is exactly what you would expect from THS.<\/p>\n
