Season 5: The May Spotlight, New Store Additions & Headbanger Albums - Arcade Fire, Foster The People, Belle and Sebastian, John Mellencamp, North Mississippi Allstars, and the Architects

On this episode of the Blind Tiger Record Club Podcast, David W. Williams and Kevin Lee discuss the May Spotlight, New Store Additions & Headbanger Albums.  We will be talking about new releases from Arcade Fire, Belle and Sebastian, John Mellencamp, North Mississippi Allstars, and the Architects   The albums are discussed and clips of songs from the albums are played.  It is a great introduction to both the artists and the albums.

Our Spotlight album is a new release that we really are excited about, but it's not part of our member's Record of the Month Program. We pick one new release every month that we choose to "Spotlight".  The New Store Additions discussed on this episode are newly added albums to the B.T.R.C. Record Store; usually within the last thirty days.  All these albums are available for purchase at BlindTigerRecordClub.com.

Our Headbanger Album is a separate club dedicated to all Metal and Hard rock subgenres.  The membership is month to month, so you can start and stop anytime.  It's the best way to secure copies of limited run vinyl from the best releases in Metal.

We also have a "bonus" portion of this show where we discuss the May Classics album since we didn't have a chance to record the dedicated Classic episode this month.  It's the 10th anniversary edition of Torches by Foster the People.

Whether or not you are a member of Blind Tiger Record Club, the B.T.R.C. Podcast is a great way to get introduced to some new artists and discover some albums that you may not be familiar with.  All the music in our subscription program and that we discuss on this show are on vinyl and have been released or reissued in the last 30 - 60 days.  The show is designed to be a discovery platform for new music "on vinyl", but even if you do not collect or listen to vinyl, it's still a fun way to explore new music.
