I ordered this from Matador a bit ago (in that color variant) but it hasn't come in yet. Honestly, I don't even know what the release date is.

on her site and the bandcamp site says releases February 26, 2021
weird that the Matador doesn't and when I ordered didn't even say that it would ship in late feb?
Wow. Very interested in hearing that. Great period for KJ recordings. Not gonna pay $55 for it tho.

Having to wait another two months for the Pandemonium reissue is bad enough.
Shame - Drunk Tank Pink out Jan 15

looks like nothing but silly love songs
releases January 29, 2021

wondering if it will be the King Khan Unlimited band for this, currently listed as a King Khan release?
I miss the Shrines, that LP (and that tour) was one of my favorites of the decade

Single is decent, catchy title

Edit…this special edition vinyl is pretty sweet
^ gawd i hate that "psychedelic doodle" style of drawing… i used to scribble that shit in the margins of my notebooks too.  i can't imagine why anyone would choose to put that style of graphic as the public face of their art.
I agree, I really dislike the style, but if 500 of these are sold, I'd be surprised

The artist actually is somewhat infamous (and I just learned this too)
Boiled Angel was an independent comic book by Florida-based underground comic book artist Mike Diana in the early 1990s. The comic contained graphic depictions of a variety of taboo and gory subject matters. It effectively became the first comic book in the United States to cause its creator to be convicted for artistic obscenity.
Chris Cornell's Widow, Vicky Cornell, has confirmed that there were will be new Soundgarden music featuring the late singer
well, not an album…
David Bowie’s unreleased covers of John Lennon’s "Mother" and Bob Dylan’s "Tryin’ to Get to Heaven" will be released as a birthday single (an 8th)
Gee sounds fun……
Man we love to hate
Bryan Adams- Wednesdays
March 2021

produced by Beatriz Artola and Don Was.

Oh that’s a great title
First new album of the year that's of interest to me is Introducing.. \ Aaron Frazer

He's the drummer and co-singer of Durand Jones & the Indications with his own solo record produced by Dan  Auerbach.  Gotta say I've enjoyed Dan's other productions of Yola and Cee-Lo Green, he certain has the retro\modern soul sound down…
