This week on New Hot, read about an elusive Scottish duo who created a scavenger hunt to announce their new album, plus another record from one of the infamous Gallagher brothers. These are our three recommended releases for Tuesday, June 11.

The Scottish band's 10th album plays out like a larger-than-life celebration of survival. Like the group itself, More Light is erratic and given to excess, but still reaching for transcendence -- and vital enough to find what it's looking for.

The Canadian band's second album showcases Katie Stelmanis' massive voice and increasingly personal lyrics in style, keeping one foot in the conservatory even as both are occupied on the dance floor.

Alt-J weasles past Daft Punk and reaches the top of The Current's chart this week with "Dissolve Me." Impressive move for the English quartet, also known as ∆, in the same week Daft Punk comes in at #1 on the Billboard list!

Trent Reznor is getting a jump on promoting his new album. He dropped the brand new track "Came Back Haunted." late Wednesday night, now you can check it out.

Colin Hanks, the oldest son of celebrated actor Tom Hanks, has racked up an impressive resume in his roughly 15 years in the family business, but he recently stopped by The Current studio and revealed another side of his personality—as it turns out, he's quite the musichead!

Singer-songwriter and producer Beck is set to release new music soon, with not one but two full-length albums due out later this year. Hear "Defriended," our first taste of the indie icon's new sound.

This week on New Hot, read about a band that was championed by the late John Peel, plus one of America's most important modern rock groups of the 21st century. These are our three recommended releases for Tuesday, June 4.

On its second album, the beachy pop-rock band balances its fussy, studio-bound side with rich full-band chemistry and songs whose hooks pop into your thoughts days later. Pythons is more streamlined and straight-ahead than 2010's Astro Coast, but it's still catchy as anything.

Early in her band's career, Camera Obscura's Tracyanne Campbell won constant comparisons with Belle and Sebastian's Stuart Murdoch, and rightfully so. But in the last decade, while Murdoch's Belle and Sebastian explored the more direct romantic sounds of '70s AM pop, Camera Obscura has quietly refined its grab-bag of arm-swinging brunette soul, swaying country and lite disco.
