Uaninauei’s Lume de Chão was, undoubtedly, one of the best Portuguese rock albums of last year. Finally, the guys from Alentejo decided to let the whole world stream it for free. You can listen to it after the jump.
Also, you should check Long Desert Cowboy, one of the many sideprojects of vocalist Daniel Catarino. You can also stream and download his latest effort, Symphony of the Deceased, on the Cakes and Tapes’ Bandcamp account.
Canadian singer-songwriter Ruby Randall will release her debut EP next Tuesday, 17th May on Other Songs Music Co. (home of the great Scott Orr).

We’ll post the EP next week!

Hella are back – again as a Zach Hill-Spencer Seim duo, after their (still awesome) late-00s Mars Volta experience, There’s No 666 in Outer Space – and the machine’s ROLLING. New (yet untitled) album out July/August at Sargent House. Sounds like it’s gonna be fucking triumphant.

Phantom Vibration is a three-piece church-organ-core band from St. Paul, Minnesota in the vein of Beach House and influenced by classics like Nico. You can stream their debut EP, “Kids” below, and download them for free on their Bandcamp. The four songs in it take more time to build than they took to design the EP cover, so be patient with them!
“Chromatic”, the debut LP from the Lisbon, Portugal indie rock band You Can’t Win, Charlie Brown, will be out on May 22nd on Pataca Discos. So great, awesome Fleet Foxes-ish feel. Listen to two tracks off the album below.
