Weekly Releases (31.07.26)

One last time for this month!

The fifth Friday of July doesn’t showcase the largest collection of releases, but it’s got some big names included. More mainstream offerings include a new record from pop star Ariana Grande, another LP from Five Finger Death Punch (oof…), and more music from genre-mixing country star Shaboozey. More underground headliners include a second offering from experimental act Shearling, a new full-length from indie darlings Shearwater, and an EP from electronic wunderkind Turquoisedeath. All that and more, below!
