plus Kraftewerk, New Order, Tool, RATM & more [View this email in your browser]( [BrooklynVegan]( Happy Monday, welcome to a new week, and check out our new -- hopefully very useful -- weekly list of the [5 NYC shows we most want to see this week]( We're excited about this new feature, and about all the great new music and tour announcements that we talk about below... [Sightless Pit] "...it’s harsh and noisy and full of blood-curdling screams, but these songs can also — in their own weird way — qualify as pop songs. " NEW MUSIC [2019]( was a great year for music, and we're sure 2020 will be no different. As March approaches, it feels like we're starting to amass a list of albums big enough to start ranking for this year, and some of the heavy hitters [came out on Friday](. Leading the pack of new releases last week is part one of Moses Sumney's new double album græ -- an amazing album that rewards attentive listening and that we feel like will continue to reveal its riches with repeat listens. Grimes' new album is also finally here and actually good, and Ozzy Osbourne's new album is not only actually decent, but features guest spots from Slash, Post Malone, Travis Scott AND Elton John that all kind of work. Oh, and the above quote... that's about Sightless Pit, the new mind blowing collaboration between members of The Body, Full of Hell and Lingua Ignota. Read [our reviews of these and more in Notable Releases](. [Indie Basement this week]( highlights more under the radar releases from Julian Cope (his 35th album!), Lithuanian darkwave group Solo Ansamblis, and more, along with a new track by the great Andrew Weatherall who [we tragically lost last week](. Ian MacKaye's new band Coriky -- with his Fugazi bandmate Joe Lally, and his Evens bandmate Amy Farina --- release their debut album next month. [First single "Clean Kill"]( has us excited.
