March looks to be a month with some diverse and exciting releases from both the old guard (Malkmus! Del tha Funkee Homosapien!) as well as the young and the hyped (Cadence Weapon, White Hinterland). We don’t discriminate but welcome musical pioneers regardless of their career accomplishments. Particularly intriguing is the debut from The Gutter Twins, the collaboration between once-Screaming Tree Mark Lanegan and longtime Afghan Whig Greg Dulli. Keep looking back as the month goes on as releases are frequently announced mid-month - that light looking March 25 very well could wind up filling out a little bit - although with Prodigy and Elf Power, what more could you need?
