New Albums - Page 20

Paolo Cattaneo (aka CATTANEO) and Andrea Lombardini have been working together since 2016, but for their latest release, they added the magic ingredient we call Tim Lefebvre. “Hypersphere” is an EP from the trio that morphs bass, guitar, and synthesizers.

Soften the Glare, featuring Mudvayne bassist Ryan Martinie, has just released their third EP, aptly entitled “EP III.” The three-song collection sees Martinie, guitarist Bon Lozaga, and drummer Mitch Hull continuing their progressive songwriting with unique compositions and soundscapes.

John Ferrara’s newest project, Mono Means One, has just released its debut album, entitled “Listless Playthings of Enormous Forces.”

Grammy-winning bassist Paul Bryan has a wide musical palette that allows him to play in just about any situation. Now he’s expanded his palette even further with a new solo album called “Western Electric.”

Jazz saxophonist Kamasi Washington has returned with his fifth studio album, “Fearless Movement,” with Thundercat, Miles Mosley, and Ben Williams on bass.

Gov’t Mule bassist Kevin Scott’s discography is a long list that includes albums with John McLaughlin, Jimmy Harring, Gary Husband, FORQ, Donny McCaslin, Col Bruce Hampton, and many more. However, he’s just released his first album as a leader with the self-titled debut from WAXpaper.

The upright bass gets a reputation for simplicity, especially in bluegrass and folk music. However, Nate Sabat has put the instrument in the spotlight on his new album, “Bass Fiddler.”

Pearl Jam connected with producer Andrew Watt last year at the legendary Shangri-La Studios in Miami. Facing each other in one room with their instruments, they were struck with a burst of inspiration and the album “Dark Matter” was created in just three weeks.

High on Fire has returned with “Cometh the Storm,” marking their first studio album since 2018’s “Electric Messiah.” Riff masters Matt Pike and Jeff Matz are joined by Coady Willis.

Ghost-Note has released their third album, “Mustard n’Onions,” which – as you can imagine from the title – is a funky affair. That's thanks in part to bassists MonoNeon and Marcus Miller.

Opeth bassist Martin Méndez has announced the third album from his band White Stones. “Memoria Viva” follows in the footsteps of the first two albums, but it takes a different approach by being sung all in Spanish.

As Journey’s original bassist, Ross Valory has just about done it all. He’s played on chart-topping hits, toured the world, and sold millions of albums. Now, the bassist has released his solo debut album, entitled “All of the Above.”
