All the sidewalk chalk and wall pastes can be put back on the shelf, because tonight it’s the debut of “Reflektor” from Arcade Fire. It may or may not feature this guy, and probably sounds like this…but all speculation will end for sure tonight.

As for the rest of the month, here’s what you have to look forward to.

Via CoS.

Arctic Monkeys – AM

Janelle Monáe – The Electric Lady

London Grammar – If You Wait

The Weeknd – Kiss Land

Elvis Costello and The Roots – Wise Up Ghost

September 24th

CHVRCHES – The Bones of What You Believe

HAIM – Days Are Gone

Early returns on the Arctic Monkeys album has been glowing and the Janelle Monáe singles have been swimming in my head ever since their release. Looking further ahead, Elvis Costello and The Roots together is my music nerd dream, but it could easily land in the Lou Reed And Metallica category. Plus albums from CHVRCHES and HAIM? Oh September, you and I will be busy, you clever minx.
