Album releases: August 2009

What to watch out for (or avoid!) in August...

Modest Mouse
No One First And You're Next [EP]
Release: 4 August 2009 - Sony
"Instead of offering demos or acoustic versions, No One’s First assembles a set of very strong tracks that continue to document the process of Modest Mouse and their collective influences." - Antiquiet


Third Eye Blind
Ursa Major
Release: 18 August 2009 - Red Distribution
"If this was released three years ago, it could been right up there with the S/T, but now it's just an ok album- 3eb


Arctic Monkeys
Humbug
Release: 25 August 2009 - Domino
"‘Humbug’ is a triumph of courage and impudence, and one giant step forward for this country’s most impressive youngsters." - Clashmusic


Imogen Heap
Ellipse

Release: 25 August 2009 - RCA
"Imogen Heap has the sort of friendly, familiar voice you want to wrap around in. And the second album’s blend of soaring electronic music, and crazy keyboard loops had everyone in love with Heap." - Culturazzi


Dolores O'Riordan
No Baggage

Release: 25 August 2009 - Zoe Records
"I probably haven’t worn my heart on my sleeve like this since the second Cranberries album [1994’s No Need to Argue],” she says. - Sonicdice
