Tennis is coming out with their sophomore album entitled Young and Old, which is set for release February 14, 2012. After a debut release like Cape Dory, with its retro, girl groupy, happy feel, it'll be interesting to see what they come up with. It was produced by the Black Keys' drummer, Patrick Carney, so only time will tell. From what I can tell with "Origins" (which you can stream below!) it's bound to be an excellent release. It still holds true to the typical Tennis-style lo-fi vocals and cheery vibe. You can pre-order the single "Origins" as well as a self-produced B-Side called "Deep In The Woods" here.

Track Listing:
Currently unavailable, but never fear! I'll find it eventually!










Here's the first single "Origins" off of Young and Old.

Brooklyn singer/songwriter, Sharon van Etten, an extremely talented artist that we really should be promoting more, is coming out with her third album on February 7th. It's called Tramp and is the first album she's released on the record label Jagjaguwar (which is the same one used by artists such as Bon Iver and Dinosaur Jr.). The album also features an incredibly impressive round of people. Contributions to the album were made by members of Wye Oak, The National, The Walkmen, Beirut, and more.

Track Listing:
1. Warsaw
2. Give Out
3. Serpents
4. Kevin’s
5. Leonard
6. In Line
7. All I Can
8. We Are Fine
9. Magic Chords
10. Ask
11. I’m Wrong
12. Joke or a Lie

As far as I know, there has been know officially released single I can give you as a taste of the album. So instead, I'll give you a song off of her 2010 album Epic entitled "One Day."



And just because I'm sort of getting really excited about Sharon van Etten, here's a bonus song from Epic called "Don't Do It."

Cloud Nothings is releasing their sophomore album Attack on Memory on January 24th on Carpark Records. It features the single "No Furture/No Past," an incredibly mature song that that is a strong mix between Nirvana, Weezer, and Radiohead. It's quite impressive for such a young band. Give it a listen below and find them on Facebook here.
