<p>Editor’s Note: Anyone who says there isn’t good music coming out these days — and quite literally, every day — simply isn’t paying attention. Vanyaland’s compilation feature The V List highlights the best in new music, both homegrown and national, over the past month, pulling together the sounds that have soundtracked the website in recent weeks. It’s all the stuff we’re bumping here at Vanyaland HQ, one new bop at a time. Scarlet Nicole, ‘Poison’ Scarlet Nicole isn’t afraid of casting a musical spell to defend her sense of […]</p>

Streetlight Manifesto give album update

Earlier this year Streetlight Manifesto announced that they would be releasing their first new album in 12 years (called The Place Behind The Stars) in June and then in June they announced that the release would be delayed until fall. Now, the band has released a statement on Instagram which was written by lead singer and guitarist Tomas Kalnoky, announcing a further delay in the album release. The statement reads, ”Hi, hello. By now you’ve figured out the record isn’t coming out two months ago, or even last month, I assume. I’m still not done with what I need to get done, it’s still not where I need it to be before release and I’m still claiming all responsibility for it not being finished as well as making the awful move of announcing two intended release dates/windows before being happy with it. I simply need more time, and despite my best efforts and best intentions, the record simply isn’t finished yet. There’s been too much hard work and too many long hours put in by too many talented and fine folk on this massive slab of music for me to do anything less than nail the final pieces of the puzzle. Not even sure what that is supposed to mean but you get the picture. I apologize, again, tail tucked firmly between my legs, head bowed in shame and embarrassment. I’m not going to make any more predictions about when the record will be out because we’ve all seen how that ends, but it is in fact close to done. It’s just not actually done yet. Next time you hear about it, it will be finished. No one wants to hear about something that isn’t done and is long overdue and has been promised for way too long, that has finally sunk into my thick skull. Again, I’m sorry, it’s coming soon, I humbly ask for a little more time to get it right. Hugs and kisses, singer dork Kalnoky.” Streetlight Manifesto has released three songs from the upcoming album so far this year: “Enormous”, “Everything to Everyone”, and “Imagine This”.
