The Internet – Hive Mind (Columbia)
This LA band's fourth album is another impressive set of breezy, jazz-tinged R&B with a warm, hazy sound featuring shape-shifting arrangements, slow-burning grooves, intimate vocals and lyrics of love and resilience.
Israel Nash – Lifted (Desert Folklore/Thirty Tigers)
This Dripping Springs, TX-based artist's fifth studio album is a beautifully crafted set of sunny, folk-tinged psych-rock with electric and acoustic guitars, lush strings, warm horns, dreamy organ, soaring harmonies and buoyant melodies.
Ty Segall & White Fence – Joy (Drag City)
The latest collaboration between these two LA-based artists is an expansive blend of garage-rock with shape-shifting psych-rock, pastoral folk, sludgy punk, quirky experimental rock and more.
Chastity – Death Lust (Captured Tracks)
The debut full-length from this Whitby, ON band led by Brandon Williams is a potent blend of shoegazer psych-rock, raging post-hardcore, atmospheric post-punk and more, combining a densely produced sound with angst-fueled lyrics of alienation and mortality.
Vinyl Williams – Opal (Requieum Pour Un Twister)
The fourth album from this LA-based artist (aka Lionel Williams) is a fine set of breezy psych-pop combining a hazy sound with sun-kissed melodies.
