August is almost over, but before it ends there is one more batch of new releases to bring you. The only one that really catches my eye is the Thunder box set called The Complete EMI Recordings, other than that, I’m probably going to catch up on prior releases. Let me know what you want to hear this week or what we may have missed. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great weekend.
AWOLNATION – The Phantom Five – (Thank You For Listening Entertainment)
Thunder – The Complete EMI Recordings 1989-1995 – (Hne)
U2 – Zoo TV: Live in Dublin E.P. – (Interscope / Geffen / A&M)



Jeff Scott Soto – Complicated – (Frontiers Records): His 3rd solo released in as many years and 9th overall and he might be the busiest man in the business. I think he is awesome, but I am biased as I just got to meet him a couple weeks ago and see him and Jason Bieler in concert (sorry, was I bragging…yes I was). Looking forward to dive in to this, but don’t expect a review until the end of the Jeff Scott Soto Series we are doing.
Halestorm – Back From the Dead – (Atlantic Recording): Man, I have been waiting for a new album from Lzzy Hale and the gang and the have finally delivered. Are they one of the best newer bands out there, no doubt they are. Lzzy has one of the best rock vocals and when they deliver it, they deliver it hard and heavy!
The Used – Heartwork – (Big Noise Music Group)
Brendan Benson – Dear Life – (Third Man Records)
