As you probably guessed, the Tuesday before Christmas isn't one of the bigger release days of the year. Why would you wait until now to release an album, when you could reap the benefits of the holiday season?

With many musicians, managers, record label peeps, bloggers, and reviewers having one foot out the door, ready to enjoy their holiday break, this Tuesday isn't even worthy of the "super" title. We trudge on nonetheless:

Savage, Savage Island
If you could judge a book by it's cover, this album really sucks!

Brutha, Brutha
Is this A.) An R&B Group, B.) A Death Metal Band, or C.) A Sufjan Stevens side project? Go with your gut on this one. Click HERE for the answer.

Cash Cash, Take It To The Floor
If you thought this was another redundantly named indie act who could give Man Man, Xiu Xiu, Mirror Mirror, and Gang Gang Dance a run for their money, think again. Click HERE to hear a horrible, horrible song.
