started off busy this year.
Here is the Spunk Rock best-of-the-month list:
Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/user/fluid3sally/playlist/0kIejniEKYzIz983PaTcY2
YouTube Playlist: ..
Halestorm - ReAniMate 3.0: The CoVeRs eP
I don't really count this as a "new" Halestorm record.. hopefully that is coming soon. But to hear them play Joan Jett, Metallica and Soundgarden .. priceless

Sleater-Kinney - Live in Paris
No new songs here, but still, any new Kinney is epic on planet spunk. For anyone new to Sleater-Kinney, start with 1997's Dig Me Out and 2005's The Woods. Do not start here. For die-hard loyal SK fans such as myself, we all have lots of great live recordings by them. Now we have one more!

Flo Morrissey and Matthew E. White - Gentlewoman, Ruby Man
Spunky AF this one. recommended for fans of Standfast and Magic Wands

Love Past Blue - Love Past Blue
Starset - Vessels
This is an interesting band with some cool sounds. They play around with space themes and imagery. some of the songs are a bit "flat" (mono-tone) for my taste, but, overall, quite good.
Somewhere near the intersection of Deftones and Man Or Astroman? with hints of The Birthday Massacre
