Chelsea Light Moving LISTEN (3voor12)

While the legendary Sonic Youth appears to be done for good, its members continue to make music. Last year brought a Lee Ranaldo solo album, and this week sees the debut LP from Chelsea Light Moving, a new quartet fronted by SY's Thurston Moore that should instantly appeal to fans of Moore's former band (hint: you'll recognize his distinctive guitar-playing immediately), though it's a bit heavier and more straightforward than recent Sonic Youth releases.

Jimi Hendrix
People, Hell and Angels

A new Jimi Hendrix album? Anything's possible these days (plus, you have to admit, the guy is overdue). People, Hell and Angels collects a dozen never-before-released tracks recorded in 1968 and 69 that showcase the guitarist's more experimental side. Diehard fans may be familiar with many of the songs themselves, but you've never heard them quite like this.
