New Releases

Frank Black
Honeycomb
Narada

As surprising as ever, Frank Black follows the Pixies' powerful reunion tour with Honeycomb, an album of intimate singer/songwriter tunes recorded in Nashville with session legends like Anton Fig, Steve Cropper, and Spooner Oldham. There's almost no rock here, but it is still the one cd to buy this week.

Iggy Pop
A Million in Prizes: The Anthology
Virgin

Iggy Pop didn't just invent punk — on his albums The Idiot and Lust For Life (produced by David Bowie), he invented post-punk as well, and dipped his toes in metal, dance pop, art rock and even jazz. A Million In Prizes: The Anthology is a near-definitive two-disc compilation of Iggy's most memorable moments on record, and it captures his influence, fury and intelligence with commendable accuracy.
