Aldous Harding looks to fend off the Top 3
NACC 200 NOTABLES:
1] Three albums were storming toward #1 last week when Aldous Harding rose to the top with her first NACC 200 chart-topping album. Kurt Vile climbed 32-5, Feeble Little Horse jumped 38-3, and Death Cab For Cutie debuted at #13. This week, each of those albums finds itself in the Top 3 of the NACC 200. Tops among that trio is longtime Bellingham, WA quintet Death Cab For Cutie. Turns out third time’s the charm for the band. Their 2018 album, Thank You For Today, and 2022 release Asphalt Meadows, both came up just short of #1. Their 11th LP, I Built You A Tower, makes quick work of their race to the top as they soar 13-1. It’s the biggest climb to #1 since January and ties them with several other albums for the fastest climb ever to #1 on the NACC 200.

Industry Interview with Adam Lewis, Planetary Group
“Never thought Planetary would be here for 30 years! I think finding a band from nowhere and getting them so much airplay that they end up getting signed to a larger label – that is a thrill. Working with artists early is just a wonderful feeling. Courtney Barnett, Bon Iver, Passion Pit come to mind. There have been so many!
MD of the Month | Ozzie Zakusilo, RLC-WVPH 90.3 The Core
“I’ve probably been listening to [February] for a little over a year at this point but I think I absolutely fell in love with them after getting to see them perform live! I saw them at their first show in New Jersey and the energy they had was absolutely insane! Im a big fan of screamo and skramz in general but I think they’re definitely getting a lot of attention right now – especially since they JUST played Coachella which is so crazy to think about!”
MD of the Month | Kris Kosach Wellen, KLBP Long Beach Public Radio
“Recently, I came across a truly unique group out of Liverpool called STR^NGE. They’re evocative of David Bowie, the weirder side of The Beatles, maybe a little Queen for their theatrical flair, but their sound is also ridiculously modern.”
