New album from The Cure dropped today. It’s just so gorgeously bleak.
New album from Willie today too.
“Last Leaf on the Tree” is an album of firsts and familiarities; it is Nelson’s first album produced entirely by his son Micah, which includes a few originals and covers from Nelson staples like Neil Young, Nina Simone and Tom Waits as well as some less-than-obvious inclusions, like reimaginations of the Flaming Lips’ “Do You Realize??” and Beck’s “Lost Cause.”
