Best New Music This Week: Pearl Jam, Cavalier, The Ghost Inside, And More

Every Friday, we challenge ourselves to sift through new music releases and curate a list of albums we think you should be listening to.

This week begins with Pearl Jam's immersive album, Dark Matter, where they deliver a powerful blend of grunge intensity and profound lyricism. Cavalier brings a fresh perspective to the hip-hop scene with Different Type Time, offering a dynamic fusion of jazz-infused beats and soulful melodies that transport listeners to the streets of New Orleans and the heart of South Brooklyn. The Ghost Inside presents Searching for Solace, a triumphant return filled with melodic hardcore anthems and introspective reflections. High on Fire unleashes Cometh the Storm, a relentless onslaught of sludge metal energy and thunderous riffs. Lastly, Cloud Nothings captivates with Final Summer, an album filled with raw emotion and infectious energy, defying genre boundaries and inviting listeners to explore themes of longing and nostalgia.
