New Releases of Note, 5/26/09

I know you’ll find it hard to believe, but there’s lots more good stuff out this week in addition to Veckatimest! I mean, there’s Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix for one… and the City Center LP for another. I also highly recommend checking out the new full-length from Sharon Van Etten — we’ve made it easy by giving you a full Listen@MBV stream of Because I Was In Love. And I mentioned last week that both the new Blank Dogs and the new Tyvek could be picked up at Midheaven, but they’re widely available this week (i.e. Amazon and such should have them now).

Jeff says:Grizzly Bear and Phoenix pretty much make this the best release week ever.
