It has been a rough summer for CD releases. Not only have there been none to speak of but the ones that were high anticipation releases ended up being nothing to write home about. There was Radiohead's release, which was groundbreaking for every reason except for the quality of the songs. Then there was 10 Years and The Kooks who fell so far down the sophomore slump cavern that they may never see the light of day again. There have been albums that should never have been released, namely Scarlett Johansson's - Anywhere I Lay My Head, The Naked Brothers - I Don't want to go to School, and anything having to do with High School Musical. There have also been some suprise successes such as Candlebox's - Into The Sun, which is their first release in ten years. But over the past few weeks there have been a few releases that might save this year yet. If you haven't listened to these yet then they deserve a fair shot.
Keane - Perfect Symmetry
Ray La Montangue - Gossip In The Grain
Brett Dennen - Hope For The Hopeless
Jack's Mannequin - The Glass Passenger
Dresdon Dolls - No, Virginia
