"Convocations" by Sufjan Stevens was released today.
it's a synth-only, no-vocal "ambient soundscapes" exploration of the 5 stages of grief.
he's live-streaming it right now on YT.

Primal Scream frontman Bobby Gillespie and Savages vocalist Jehnny Beth are teaming up for a collaborative album. Inspired by classic country soul duets like Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris’ “Grievous Angel” and George Jones and Tammy Wynette’s “We Go Together,” they got together to record Utopian Ashes, a concept album about the slow disintegration of a failing marriage. Fun stuff!
Utopian Ashes is out 7/2 via Third Man Records.

Dischord 200To mark our 40th year, we have created Dischord 200, a Box Set containing reissues of our first 6 releases in their original 7″ vinyl format as well as a 12-page booklet. All records have been remastered, all sleeves & lyric sheets reproduced from original art.
We have no idea of how many of these we should press, so we’ve decided to let the pre-orders make the call. This will be a mail-order only release and the window to place orders will be limited to one month (May 11th until June 11th, 2021). The Box Sets can only be shipped one at a time, so each order is limited to one. If you want more, you’ll have to make multiple orders.
PLEASE NOTE: The scale of this project combined with the delays at pressing plants have led us to believe that we may not be able to deliver the final piece until the end of 2021.

While not cheap, I have no doubt that almost all other labels would have charged more, if not twice as much (thank gawd it's not Domino).

i'm not sure why a big name like Moz needs a label? I just don't think it would be that hard for him to do it via Bandcamp and keep most of the cash
