Friday New Releases – October 4, 2024 – 2 Loud 2 Old Music
As we flip the calendar to October, the music scene is buzzing with anticipation for new releases, boasting over 50 albums hitting the market. It’s that time of year when the air gets cooler, and the sounds of fresh tunes begin to stir excitement among music lovers. This week, I’ve got some highlights that I’m eager to check out. Among them, I have pre-orders for The Wild Feathers and Texas Hippie Coalition, and I’m contemplating adding Twisted Sister to my collection. I’m also keen to experience the latest from James Bay. However, I find myself distancing from Motley Crue; their recent actions have left me questioning my allegiance as a fan, especially after their return despite earlier statements about stepping away.
