New Release Tuesday - September 27
I mentioned last week that New Release Tuesdays are going to be filled with great new releases as we make the run up to the holidays, and this week is no exception.
In fact, I think there will just be an unbelievable amount of great music to point out every Tuesday that I think I’m going to try something different this week. Instead of doing a little write-up on a handful of releases, I’m going...

New Release Tuesday - September 20
After a relatively light release schedule this summer, it seems that the record companies are slowly gearing up for the holiday shopping season. I think it’s safe to say that from this point forward, New Release Tuesdays are going be full of gems as we make the run up to the holidays.
This week, the band SuperHeavy releases their self-titled debut album. If you haven’t heard of Superheavy, they...

Can 'Leaks' Actually Help Sales?
The Lil’ Wayne album Tha Carter IV leaked out a full week before the release date and was all over the internet, yet managed to sell an impressive 964,000 copies in first week sales last week - the second largest debut next to Lady Gaga this year. In comparison, the Jay-Z/Kanye West album Watch The Throne, which was subject to a largely successful, military-style campaign to prevent any leaks,...

New Release Tuesday - August 30
It’s a HUGE week here at HMV Digital. First off, my Choice of the Week this week is the new album by the Red Hot Chili Peppers - I’m With You, their 10th album release. The record features new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, but contains all the classic sounds from founding members Flea, Anthony Keidis and Chad Smith (who has been with the band since 1989).
Another big record out this...

Is there a hotter indie label than Fueled By Ramen on the planet right now? Possibly…but with a roster filled with artists such as Paramore, Travie McCoy, Panic!
