Not to put too fine a point on saying that it’s a slow week for new music, but the most interesting new album appears to be a Billy Ray Cyrus project. Brother Clyde is a rock band with alumni of Hole among others. I have to admit to grudging respect for the guy. He’s kept a credible recording career going for decades with fairly negligible talent. Hell, he’s created a freakin’ family musical dynasty. Ol’ boy’s doing something right.
Here’s the complete list of this week’s major new CD album releases:
