Donny Benét has released his sixth album, “Infinite Desires,” which marks the first on his own label, Donnyland Records. The album continues his celebration of retro pop, funk, and disco with synthesizers, drum machines, and some deep bass lines.

I’ve been fascinated by Craig Butterfield’s playing ever since we posted his jaw-dropping “Donna Lee” video. Now, he’s part of an an acoustic supergroup called EZRA, which just released their debut album.

David Barber has played on songs featured on TV shows and he’s toured nationally opening for artists like Crosby, Stills, and Nash and Dan Hicks & The Hot Licks. Now he’s stepped out front with the self-titled debut album, “DB & The Soho Nine-Six.”

Ten years after their last studio album, “Sun Eater,” the death metal heroes in Job For A Cowboy have returned with a new album. “Moon Healer” is described by bassist Nick Schendzielos as a mirror of its predecessor in style and concept.

The Immediate Family crafted the sound of the ’70s by backing up nearly every important musician of the era in the studio. Now the band has dropped a fresh studio album, “Skin in the Game.”

The Aristocrats have returned with their fifth studio album, entitled “Duck.” Each member of the trio contributed three compositions to the effort, which is their first concept album.

Universal Music Enterprises and Republic Records have announced the release of a previously unheard 1970 track by James Brown. The song features a stone cold bass line from Bootsy Collins.

Green Day has returned with “Saviors,” which marks the group’s 14th album. It comes 30 years after their major label debut, “Dookie,” and 20 years after their milestone record “American Idiot.” “Saviors” brings the group back to form, leaning on the politically charged side of “American Idiot.”

After releasing an ambient exploration in September, NICKO has returned with his third album, which takes a different approach. “Bits & Pieces 1” was created solely with a bass guitar to flesh out the multi-tracked compositions.
