Noah Kahan - Live From Fenway Park - Vinyl 2 LP
Grammy-nominated Noah Kahan celebrates an incredible season of accolades by releasing a live album of his high point thus far - selling out 2 nights at his New England hometown Fenway Park, which saw over 70,000 fans in attendance with special guests Gracie Abrams, The Lumineers and more! Noah debuts many songs on tour as he writes towards his next album. This live album sees the first release of "Pain Is Cold Water," a song so new that Noah hasn't even recorded it yet. 2 LP set.
14-time Grammy-winner, Academy Award-winner, and two-time Golden Globe-winner Lady Gaga returns with MAYHEM. Includes previously released singles “Die With A Smile,” and “Disease,” plus the new track, “Abracadabra.”
With their debut album, Afterglow, Sleep Theory is carving out space at the forefront of modern hard rock, stacking stadium-sized hooks with genuine emotional weight. If their meteoric rise is any indication, this is only the beginning. The album, which offers a stunning display of diverse rock flavors, was produced by David Cowell and mixed by Zakk Cervini (Bring Me The Horizon, Bad Omens, Architects).
Revolver put it best: “The band’s mix of metalcore, pop, and R&B is clearly connecting in a big way—and has positioned Sleep Theory as one of heavy music’s biggest breakouts.”
Sleep Theory isn’t just another rock band climbing the ranks—they’re an unstoppable force rewriting the genre’s rules in real time. Frontman Cullen Moore doesn’t just sing; he commands, delivering lung-busting hooks that sit comfortably between modern rock’s heaviest hitters and the emotional pull of early-2000s alt-metal. Sleep Theory’s sound blends anthemic rock, metalcore energy, and smooth R&B-inspired melodies, drawing comparisons to Linkin Park’s more dynamic moments. Moore’s vocal range allows for a mix of soaring melodies and intense screams, adding depth and versatility to their music.
In under two years, the Memphis-based quartet—Moore, bassist Paolo Vergara, guitarist Daniel Pruitt, and drummer Benjamin Pruitt—had rocketed from internet obscurity to festival mainstages and the momentum hasn’t slowed. With over 220 million streams on their first eight songs, Sleep Theory is proving that viral moments can have serious staying power.
The industry is watching. Sleep Theory closed out 2024 as the fifth most-played artist on Active Rock radio, with multiple singles cracking year-end rock and metal charts. Heavyweights like Jelly Roll and Disturbed’s David Draiman are openly singing their praises, while Shinedown, Beartooth, Wage War, Daughtry, and Falling in Reverse have already taken them on tour across the U.S. and Europe.

![Rome [Indie Exclusive White 2LP] The National - Rome [Indie Exclusive White 2LP]](https://mediacdn.aent-m.com/prod-img/200/12/4377612-3269767.jpg)
“You have to see them in concert,” is what fans of The National have been preaching for years. “The songs transform. It’s a whole other level.” Recorded live (without overdubs) in June 2024 at an architecturally stunning venue named for famed Italian film composer Ennio Morricone, Rome is the definitive live document of The National. The 21-track double album is truly career spanning, and showcases scintillating versions of beloved songs like “Bloodbuzz Ohio,” “Don’t Swallow the Cap,” “I Need My Girl,” “The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness,” “England” and “Fake Empire”; plus sharpened readings of recent tracks “Eucalyptus,” “New Order T-Shirt,” “Tropic Morning News” and the boundary-pushing “Smoke Detector.” The National’s setlist changes significantly show to show, revisiting their 25-year catalog to cast fresh light on hidden gems. For Rome that includes the show opener “Runaway,” “Lemonworld,” “The Geese of Beverly Road,” “Lit Up” and a tour de force pairing of “Humiliation” from their critically acclaimed album Trouble Will Find Me into Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers’ “Murder Me Rachael.” The Rome encore features the election anthem “Mr. November,” and, from High Violet, “Terrible Love” and the show-closing fan singalong, “Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks.” The live album was mixed by the band’s longtime collaborator Peter Katis. Reviewing a National performance this summer, NME wrote that “every song is played like it could be the last.” Rome captures that playing-for-keeps urgency on record and serves not merely as a concert souvenir but the latest vital addition to the band’s peerless catalog.

"In 1990 the Chapel Hill, North Carolina music scene was bubbling up into a soon-to-be-legendary froth and at its center was a mysterious band called Metal Flake Mother. As bands like Polvo and Archers of Loaf were all just forming, they all looked up to and often opened for Metal Flake Mother during the height of this cultural tipping point. While the previous sonic template of the region had been set by bands like Corrosion of Conformity, Flat Duo Jets and a very early form of Superchunk, Metal Flake Mother were the first to reach for a kind of Beatles-esque form of indie-rock and cut a timeless record that could build a bridge out to the burgeoning national scene. But before that could happen the band tragically broke up and their lost masterpiece "Beyond the Java Sea" was never released on LP. The arrival of this new release "Metal Flake Mother, Songs 1989-1991", will mark the first time any of their tracks recorded with Boston legend Lou Giordano have ever been on vinyl. This release will be limited to only 500 copies."

After a decade releasing music as Years & Years, Polari is literally Olly Alexander talking the talk. He bonded with Danny L Harle over a mutual love of 80s club music, that period of uncompromising, avant-garde pop which nonetheless snuck into the mainstream. Polari remained a north star throughout the creative process, a secret language likewise lacking widespread recognition but still influential in plain sight. And after a long history of secrets and subtext, Polari is ultimately an open and universal pop record about those needs that transcend time, sexuality, and self: what it means to belong, to be loved, and (Polari literally translates as “to talk”) to connect.

What's New 2-14-25
Dualtone Music GroupAfter twenty years of musical partnership, both Jeremiah Fraites and Wesley Schultz, now dads, fully embraced the life-altering, unromantic challenges and rewards of family life. Their fifth album features a new vulnerability, sly humor and acknowledgements of need – for love, respect, and connection in an increasingly chaotic world.
Mercury NashvillePlus One represents the duo’s first full-fledged attempt at carving a space in mainstream country music. Tunes that reference country roads and chugging double shots of whiskey sit alongside their trademark message of fostering hope and connection. “We knew that Nashville had something to offer us,” says Michael Trotter, “but we also knew that we’ve got something to offer Nashville.”
4ADThroughout the record, Strange lays down one difficult truth after another, all over a sonic pastiche of music he loved as a kid. His dad hipped him to Parliament Funkadelic, Fleetwood Mac, Teddy Pendergrass, and Neil Young. Those influences merged with Strange’s interest in hip-hop, country, indie rock, and house, culminating in a record that feels completely original.
Easy Eye SoundThe Velveteers’ explosive sophomore album is loaded with blistering rock anthems infused with melodic indie songwriting. With producer Dan Auerbach at the helm, the trio encapsulates the raw, forceful, and profoundly heavy power of their live performances and laser-focuses a spotlight on tightly crafted songs as they carve out their own distinctive niche.
Thirty Tigers / Sham 2Over the last three decades, singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer Gary Louris has built a deeply compelling body of music whose artistry and integrity has won the loyalty and respect of both critics and his peers. Best known for his seminal work with The Jayhawks, he is one of the most acclaimed musicians to come out of Minnesota's teeming rock scene.

The album includes "Can I Get An Amen", "Leads Me Home, "Stealing A Kiss", "Called You By Your Name" and “Carried Away” "Every song on this album deals with some aspects of him and some aspects of her and some aspects of us. The ideal of sharing space with someone can be challenging no matter how short or long. We’ve had moments of doubt, moments of clarity, moments of regret and moments of solid faith." - Michael and Tanya
