June 5 Notable Releases

A few of the 2,268 new and re-released albums coming out this week.

Paul McCartney -- Memory Almost Full. First Sir Paul album in his almost 45 year career not released by Capitol (or EMI across the pond)... sure the major labels are doing great... I mean, what could the most successful songwriter of the twentieth century know about the music business?

Marilyn Manson -- Eat Me, Drink Me. Alice Cooper used to be edgy too, hopefully double M's got a plan for the future or a least a good 401K.

Chris Cornell -- Carry On. As in, "carry on, nothing to see here." He may not have been the voice of his generation, but he certainly had the voice of his generation... wonder what Kim's up to?

Sister Hazel -- BAM!, Vol. 1. Pretty cocky aren't we Hazel dudes? Volume 1 is it? Pretty sure there's gonna be more BAM are we? Enough BAM for at least 2, if not 3-6 volumes? Let me break it down for you, you had a hit 10 years ago, making you easily the 2nd most successful band in the history of Gainsville, Fla (fuck you Less than Jake, you're number 3). But let's not get ahead of ourselves and go on predicting the future when the present is pretty effing tenuous.
