It’s another one of those weird weeks: There are a shit-ton of new albums, EPs and singles dropping this week, but aside from Chance the Rapper’s debut album The Big Day (pictured above), a Sugar Ray comeback album (why, Lord, why?) and Violent Femmes’ Hotel Last Resort — which I already reviewed HERE — there aren’t many major new releases. But there are a ton of oldies taking up the slack — including box sets, compilations or vinyl reissues from Iron Maiden, Janet Jackson, Megadeth, Spoon and many others. Here’s everything you’ve got to look forward (and backward) to this week:
