Everyone must be at the beach this week. There's really no explanation for the scarcity of albums below. However, within our grasp there are a few solid albums groups to delve into. If you think someone should have made the cut who didn't, give us a shout.
One of the most popular groups on this list (as far as the East Coast goes) are our Rockville, MD friends O.A.R. Maybe you're eardrums have been pounded to "That Was A Crazy Game Of Poker" a million times over, but those times have run dry and now with the group back in action after a breif hiatus since their Boys and Girls in America album back in 2006, their latest album, Stay Positive should bring some more grizzle folk rock to your mp3 player.
You'll also notice two seasoned veterans are here this week with Nas and John Mellencamp releasing this umpteenth album respectively.
A few pop / punk bands to look at are A Coastline Ending, who are a bit grizzlier than your average pop and The Mile After who released their third album Armada.
Lastly, be sure to check out The Hold Steady, whose latest album Stay Positive, got a rave review (8.4) from Pitchfork.
