This week, we take a look at our biggest list of SXSW weekly artist releases<\/strong> so far this season. There is a good mix of artists in different stages of their careers as well as a good variety of genres getting attention this week. Let’s get right into it since we have so many new albums to listen to this week.<\/p>\n Last week the SXSW Artist Releases write-up featured the new album from A$AP Ferg, and this week the full crew, A$AP Mob<\/strong>, is on deck with Cozy Tapes Vol. 2: Too Cozy<\/em>. British rock band CYMBALS<\/strong> return with Light In Your Mind<\/em>. Veteran indie-folk artist Iron and Wine<\/strong> releases Beast Epic<\/em>. Queens of the Stone Age<\/strong> will release Villains<\/em> to add to their catalogue of stoner-rock. If you like your rock music a bit more experimental, Tera Melos<\/strong> has a new album called Trash Generator<\/em> releasing this Friday as well.<\/p>\n Pulling from these weekly releases, we pick one new release and make a playlist for fans incorporating new music from past SXSW artists for them to discover. This week, we\u2019re selecting a indie-rock playlist inspired by The War on Drugs<\/strong> whose new album A Deeper Understanding<\/em> is getting released this Friday. Go ahead and give it a listen because these playlists will only be active for seven days before we pick a new artist to focus on. Keep up with our playlists on the official SXSW Spotify channel<\/a>, and be sure to follow the playlist.<\/p>\n Release of the Week Playlist<\/a><\/p>\n A$AP Mob<\/strong> – Cozy Tapes Vol. 2: Too Cozy The War on Drugs – Photo by Nicholas Kwasny<\/small><\/em><\/p>\n The post New Music!
