Kevin Devine has confirmed plans to release two new albums this fall. After doubling on his $50,000 Kickstarter goal, the singer-songwriter will release Bulldozer and Bubblegum—“the solo record” and “the Goddamn Band record," respectively—on Oct. 15.
Chuck Inglish, one-half of The Cool Kids, is gearing up for the release of his full-length solo debut Convertibles, due out this fall via his own Sounds Like Fun imprint in conjunction with Dave Sitek's boutique label Federal Prism.
Following its split with Interscope earlier this year, TV on the Radio makes its return this week with a newly released single titled "Mercy." Despite previously suggesting that the group had no immediate plans for a full record, this new cut proves they are ready to release new material in some format.
The Weeknd (aka Abel Tesfaye) has another new track for the world to hear. "Love in the Sky" comes off his forthcoming Kiss Land record, which arrives Sept. 10 via Republic.
Sensibility Music had to know fans couldn't wait until next Tuesday (Aug. 6) for The Civil Wars' new self-titled album, as the set is now streaming in full via iTunes.
Rick Ross has unleashed a new cut titled "I Wonder Why." The usually braggadocious MC this time veers away from focusing on fame, fortune and beautiful women, and he instead voices some very personal thoughts regarding the recent verdict in the death of Trayvon Martin. It may not be the next roll-the-windows-down track we've been waiting for from Ross, but it's an important one.
After having performed the track along many previous tour stops, HAIM on Monday premiered the studio version of "The Wire," which debuted on none other than Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show.

James Blunt on Monday returned with a new track, "Bonfire Heart," which precedes a newly announced record titled Moon Landing. The album arrives Nov. 5 in the United States, although it will be released to a string of other countries throughout the month of October.
Ahead of their forthcoming new record, AM, Arctic Monkeys have shared another new track off the set. The addictive new tune, "Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?," suggests the English rockers certainly took note during their tour last year with The Black Keys. The gritty track would certainly make Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney proud.
Avicii on Monday released the new video for his latest single—and one of our favorites—"Wake Me Up," featuring vocals by Aloe Blacc. The clip premiered via Denim & Supply Ralph Lauren and is co-produced by At Night Studios. As we previously reported, "Wake Me Up," the first single from Avicii's Sept. 17th album, TRUE, is also the year's fastest-selling track in the U.K. It remains at No. 1 for a second consecutive week.
R. Kelly is teasing his forthcoming Black Panties, the singer's new full-length, with the first single off the set. The somewhat autobiographical song, "My Story," features 2 Chainz. Outside of this new Paul Jefferies-produced cut, few details are known about the new album, including any release date.
