Essential Full-Length Releases

The Arcs - Yours, Dreamily Black Keys vocalist and guitarist Dan Auerbach has stepped away from his bandmate Pat Carney once before, for his 2009 solo debut Keep It Hid. For his second side outing, he put together a new band, consisting of members of The Shins and the Menahan Street Band. Inspired partly by the sport of boxing, the band released their first single just in time for the infamous Pacquiao-Mayweather fight. This is the first full-length album from the new band. Watch: "Put a Flower in Your Pocket" Watch: "Outta My Mind"

Diane Coffee - Everybody’s a Good Dog Though he had little experience playing the instrument, Shaun Fleming unwittingly became the drummer for Foxygen after their debut album. During the break between the band's second and third albums, he took some time to write and record his own material, releasing his solo debut, My Friend Fish, in 2013. The album was primarily recorded at home, but he was able to upgrade to studio time for his follow-up. Watch: "Everyday" Watch: "Mayflower"

FIDLAR - Too On their 2013 self-titled debut album, punk rock band put forward a crazy, chaotic face which seemed to be a reflection of the band's real life. Frontman Zac Carper was dealing with real-life drug issues. He spent the past couple of years getting himself clean and used writing as his outlet. He promises that this sophomore album is no less crazy than the debut! Watch: "40oz on Repeat" Watch: "Drone"

Lou Barlow - Brace the Wave Lou Barlow is a rock legend who has been a member of Deep Wound, The Folk Implosion, Sebadoh, and Dinosaur Jr. during his 33 year career. He has also had an active solo career since the release of his early 90s debut, Weed Forestin'.
