Los Lonely Boys dominate this week's releases, but dig deep for some more great pop music.
1) Los Lonely Boys - Sacred
The Garza brothers continue their entrancing blend of Latin roots, blues, and soul to come up with a second album as good or better than the first.
3) Third Eye Blind - A Collection
The best tracks and then some from post-grunge band Third Eye Blind are collected here.
4) Black Stone Cherry - Black Stone Cherry
You'll hear a lot of classic rock influences on this debut album. The song "Lonely Train" is already picking up rock radio airplay.
5) Alien Ant Farm - Up in the Attic
If you've missed them, they're finally back with a slightly more melodic feel to the careening, amphetamine rush-inducing songs.
6) Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Don't You Fake It
You'll hear echoes of current punk pop, screamo, and post-hardcore in the music of Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. This album was produced by David Bendeth, veteran of work with Breaking Benjamin and Hawthorne Heights.
7) Bruce Cockburn - Life Short Call Now
29 albums into his long career, Canadian Bruce Cockburn is one of the true masters of folk-pop.
8) Eighteen Visions - Eighteen Visions
The intensity of screamo and hardcore music from Eighteen Visions has decreased a bit for their first major label release, but expect plenty of intense hard rock.
9) Lisa Germano - In the Maybe World
If you haven't discovered the highly personal, idiosyncratic work of Lisa Germano, you are in for a treat with this new collection.
10) The Bronx - The Bronx
The muscle of the Bronx's early music has reduced some, but that may make their brand of alt-metal and punk more palatable to a wider audience.
