I’m currently listening to the new Silversun Pickups album, which has been (rightly) compared to Gish-era Smashing Pumpkins. The lead singer’s voice is almost as annoying, and the hooks aren’t quite as powerful, but overall it’s nice to have some new guitar rock with melodic bass. Also, the latest Coldplay album isn’t bad, and the last Bad Brains album is pretty good, too.
