10 Albums You Need to Hear in March

Extra day or not, February seems to have flown by, and it was a fine month for music lovers, with a slew of decent record releases to fill your shelves and/or your iTunes library. Today we’re looking ahead to March, which seems to start with a rush — there’s a heap of good releases on March 6 — and then just tails off somewhat. But never fear, we’ve still found ten albums that should most definitely be on music lovers’ shopping lists this month. Click through to see our selections, and let us know what you’re looking forward to. Yes, Madonna fans, even you.

Pond — Beard, Wives, Denim (March 6)

Pond generally get described as a Tame Impala side project, which isn’t entirely fair — sure, they certainly share members with the precociously talented Australian psych trio, but they’re also very much an ongoing proposition in their own right. Beard, Wives, Denim is their fourth record together, and it’s streaming at the Hype Machine this week, so you can listen via the embedded player below. Alternatively, you can just smoke about 36 cones and freak out to the video above. It’s all up to you.

So keen for the Shins new album. It's about time!

You forgot the Mirel Wagner album, on March 27.

You left out Lee Fields & the Expressions

I love this playlist of obscure songs to test a sound system - haven't seen these artists listed anywhere... http://mylifescoop.com/featured-stories/2012/03/10-obscure-songs-to-test-your-sound-system.html

The Good Old War album is amazing, March 6th it's released, I'd say that's gonna be one of the most impressive albums of March.

I'm also very excited for the new Bowerbirds album that's out on the 6th.

You forgot Andrew Bird - 'Break it Yourself'
