Back in January, Cleveland's Dylan Baldi put out a debut disc of bright and cute lo-fi pop-punk. On this first taste of his second LP, he fronts a full band, gets in a studio with aural verite production grandee Steve Albini and starts thinking dark and alluringly ugly. Baldi draws out his vowels like Thom Yorke and yowls like Kurt Cobain, purging what sounds like a pretty scary case of the post-breakup blues over brutally molten guitar ooze. "Give up / We're through," he bellows. Whoever he's through with might want to call in a restraining order, just for good measure.

Listen To "No Future, No Past":

“My President”

Young Jeezy teams up with Nas on this track, in which he compare his own success with the idea of an African-American winning the Democratic Party's nomination in the 2008 presidential election. "When I pulled up in my car, that s--- was unbelievable to people in my neighborhood because they were like, 'We grew up with him. How the hell did he accomplish this?'" he told Rolling Stone. "I feel like it was the same way with Obama. I grew up all this time, but I've never seen a black man this close to running this country."
