In this segment, we showcase the most notable albums out each week. Here are the albums out on July 25, 2025:

Ryan Davis & the Roadhouse Band, New Threats From the Soul

Ryan Davis and his Roadhouse Band have released their sophomore album, New Threats from the Soul, via Sophomore Lounge/Tough Love. Featuring contributions from Catherine Irwin (of Freakwater), Will Oldham (aka Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy), Lou Turner, and Myriam Gendron, the record is breezy yet wordy, lyrically epic yet down-to-earth. The Louisville, Kentucky-based visual artist, multi-instrumentalist, and singer-songwriter recorded the new album with producer Seth Manchester at Machines With Magnets, and his band included Manchester, percussionist Dan Davis, violist and violinist Elisabeth Fuchsia, drummer and pianist Will Lawrence, bassist and saxophonist Jim Marlow, pedal steel player Christopher May, and violinist Aaron Rosenblum.

Indigo De Souza, Precipice

Indigo De Souza leans toward a pop-inflected sound on her latest album, Precipice. “Life feels like always being on the edge of something without knowing what that something is,” the singer-songwriter said in press materials. “Music gives me ways to harness that feeling. Ways to push forward in new directions.” She worked on the follow-up to 2023’s All of This Will End with Elliott Kozel, who’s collaborated with the likes of SZA, Yves Tumor, and FINNEAS, and previewed it with the singles ‘Be Like the Water’, ‘Crying Over Nothing’, and ‘Heartthrob’.

Folk Bitch Trio, Now Would Be a Good Time

Now Would Be a Good Time is the debut LP by Folk Bitch Trio, the Melbourne-based band featuring Gracie Sinclair, Jeanie Pilkington, and Heide Peverell. Centering on their intimately entwined voices and guitar, the group workshopped the new songs on tour and recorded them in Auckland with Tom Healy during the winter of 2024. “We all talked about loving music when we were growing up, and knowing we wanted music to be a big part of our lives,” Pilkington recalled. “But for me at least, when I looked into the future, it was this relatively mysterious thing.”

Tyler Childers, Snipe Hunter

Tyler Childers has released a new album titled Snipe Hunter. Rick Rubin produced the follow-up to 2023’s Rustin’ in the Rain, with additional production from Childers and Sylvan Esso’s Nick Sanborn. Shawn Everett (Kacey Musgraves, Alabama Shakes) mixed the record. “It’s observations from a traveling hillbilly,” Childers told GQ. “Huntin’ our sounds and trying new things to find it, and hunting our path. It asks, in so many different ways, what are you looking for?”

Freddie Gibbs and the Alchemist, Alfredo 2

Freddie Gibbs and the Alchemist have released Alfredo 2, the sequel to their critically acclaimed 2020 album Alfredo. It spans 14 tracks, including the previously released single ‘1995’, and boasts guest appearances from Anderson .Paak, Larry June, and JID. Accompanying the release is a short film starring the duo and directed by Nick Walker on location in Japan.

Cory Hanson, I Love People

Wand’s Cory Hanson has released his fourth solo album, I Love People, via Drag City. The rootsy, playful record follows 2023’s Western Cum. Hanson recorded it with the current lineup of Wand (whose last album was 2024’s Vertigo) as his backing band: Robbie Cody on guitars and co-production duties, Evan Backer on bass, and Evan Burrows on drums and percussion. Additional contributors include Heather Lockie on viola, Emily Elkin on cello, Erik KM Clark on violin, Max Whipple on contrabass, Nicole McCabe on tenor and alto sax, Alex Wasily on trombone, Ryan Parrish on baritone sax, and Tyler Nuffer on steel.
