Between returning from the trek up to [**Sasquatch**](https://indierockcafe.com/category/music-festivals/sasquatch/)
in central Washington, and catching up with everything since then, we are a ‘lil
late with this week’s Best New Releases. Apologies on that. That said, of all the
week’s new releases, **The Vaccines**‘ _What Did You Expect From The Vaccines?_ 
is definitely our top album pick, and one of our favorite LPs of 2011, so far. We’ve
already spun the whole disc about five or six times. The Vaccines are one of the
biggest breakout bands of 2011, and their debut album, out now, proves over and 
over again why that is so true.

And, there are some really excellent singles this week from new releases by** Kids
on a Crime Spree, Mando Diao, Robert Pollard, Seapony**, and others. Plus, don’t
miss new releases this week from artists and bands you’ve probably never heard of
before. Each of the artists featured in the In Dee Mail section sent their music
to us directly via our submission form. We think you might be surprised at how good
some of the music that you probably haven’t heard before really is. :)

The first thing we thing we thought of was **Arctic Monkeys** when we heard the 
following two tracks from **Manchester** rock band **The Stand**. Could be a band
to watch?
