Best New Music Releases
Red Hot Chili Peppers Return of the Dream Canteen 2XLP Vinyl Violet
Could it only have been six months ago when a reunited Red Hot Chili Peppers released Unlimited Love with longtime guitarist John Frusciante back in the fold? Not content with releasing one album in 2022, RHCP is back with Return of the Dream Canteen. By the Way, there’s no need to limit your love of the Chili Peppers to their music alone – we also have a selection of merch to keep your dream of Californication going.
Eminem Curtain Call 2 2xLP Vinyl Orange
In 2005, Eminem released his first greatest hits album, Curtain Call. Seventeen years later, Slim Shady has continued to record and release enough music to warrant a second greatest hits album – titled appropriately enough – Curtain Call 2. Spanning the years 2007-2022, Curtain Call 2 collects songs from Relapse, Recovery, Kamikazee, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, Revival, and Music to be Murdered By.
Best Music Release
Supreme André 3000 Tee Black
Supreme took us all to Stankonia with the Supreme André 3000 photo tee release for the brand’s first drop of fall/winter 2022. And really, what better to trumpet Supreme’s new creative director – Denim Tears’ founder Tremaine Emory – than with 3 Stacks joining the Supreme photo tee club? It’s not a new Outkast album, but it’ll do.
