Diet Cig, bandcamp

Friday New Music 5/1

It’s Friday, it’s a new month, there’s new music. Let’s get into it. There’s two big releases I see for me today: Diet Cig have their second album out, and they’re a band I’ve loved before and hope to love again. Car Seat Headrest release their [coughs, shrugs]th album. Who knows what number it is. It looks like a big swing, so lets see how that goes. There’s a new Man Man as well!? Well ok, I was just being nostalgic for Six Demon Bag so seems like the perfect time for this. Father/Daughter Records is also releasing a Esther Rose EP exclusive to bandcamp today (available in a few weeks on streaming) and she’s enjoyable folk stuff.

Which, on that note, Bandcamp is once again waiving their cut of purchases today. So, a good time to support some musicians if you’re buying anyway. Here’s a longer list, taken from Consequence of Sound. Tell me what’s good, what you’re hyped for, and anything else. Enjoy!
