two in review: may/june 2015

welp, it’s time, friends, for another two in review.

i’m not sure if it’s bee a great two months of music, but it’s been good. there’s not been any major standout albums, but there’s definitely a few that have been solid showings and will likely find spots on my end-of-year lists. the big storyline on this two in review is that it’s the first in a long time to feature no hip hop. given the fact that the last one had several hip hop tracks, it makes this even more surprising. regardless, it’s a fun mix that i think you’ll enjoy.

without further ado, here’s the lineup for the may/june edition:

    1. nate ruess: great big storm [from grand romantic]
    2. david bazan: island ocean [from bazan monthly volume 2]
    3. fleming & john: springtime [from TBA]
    4. burlap to cashmere: tonilou [from freedom souls]
    5. brandon flowers: diggin’ up the heart [from the desired effect]
    6. miguel: face the sun (ft. lenny kravitz) [from wildheart]
    7. major lazer: powerful (ft. ellie goulding & tarrus riley) [from peace is the mission]
    8. bhi bhiman: moving to brussels [from rhythm & reason]
    9. kopecky: quarterback [from drug for the modern age]
    10. jon foreman: terminal [from the wonderlands: sunlight]
    11. veruca salt: empty bottle [from ghost notes]
