Albums Out Today: Soccer Mommy, MUNA, Zola Jesus, Regina Spektor, and More

In this segment, we showcase the most notable albums out each week. Here are the albums out on June 24, 2022:


Soccer Mommy, Sometimes, Forever

Soccer Mommy has returned with a new album, Sometimes, Forever, which was produced by Daniel Lopatin (aka Oneohtrix Point Never). Out now via Loma Vista, the follow-up to 2020’s color theory was previewed with the singles ‘Bones’, ‘Shotgun’, and ‘Unholy Affliction’. “It’s about accepting that everything in life comes in waves,” Sophie Allison said of the LP in an interview with Rolling Stone. “Nothing is really permanent. But, at the same time, so many things are forever. For me, that’s always been something that’s hard to grasp, because I’m a very concrete thinker.” She went on: “That’s why I wanted to make [Sometimes, Forever] the title. But the album is not really thematic like Color Theory. There’s a lot of opposites pulling at each other, conflicting thoughts and feelings, even on specific songs. It’s the way my life goes.”


MUNA, MUNA

MUNA’s self-titled album is out now via Phoebe Bridgers’ label Saddest Factory Records. Following 2019’s Saves the World, the indie pop group’s third album includes the previously released singles ‘Silk Chiffon’, ‘Anything But Me’, ‘Kind of Girl’, and ‘Home By Now’. “What ultimately keeps us together is knowing that someone’s going to hear each one of these songs and use it to make a change they need in their life,” guitarist Josette Maskin said of the record in a statement. “That people are going to feel a kind of catharsis, even if it’s a catharsis that I might never have known myself, because I’m fucked up.”


Zola Jesus, Arkhon

Zola Jesus has released her sixth studio album, Arkhon, via Sacred Bones. Its title means “power” or “ruler” in Ancient Greek, and also has relevance in Gnosticism. Preceded by the singles ‘Lost’‘Desire’, and ‘The Fall’, the follow-up to 2017’s Okovi finds Nika Roza Danilova collaborating with producer Randall Dunn and percussionist Matt Chamberlain. “When I look back at my work, I see there’s a theme where I fixate on my fear of the unknown,” she explained in press materials. “That really came into fruition for this record, because I had to let go of so much control. I had to surrender to whatever the outcome would be. That used to be really hard for me, and now I had no other choice.”


Regina Spektor, Home, before and after

Regina Spektor is back with a new album, Home, before and after, out now via Warner Records. The 10-track LP, which follows 2016’s Remember Us To Life, was recorded in upstate New York with producer John Congleton. Discussing the album title in an interview with Consequence of Sound, Spektor explained: “I tend to have the title way before I have the record, or even know what songs are going to be on the record. I started to think about what home was to me in general, and the idea of immigration — and then COVID happened, and then homes sort of became this whole other layer, where like for some people homes were sanctuaries and for other people homes were their prisons.” Home, before and after includes the promotional singles ‘Loveology’‘Becoming All Alone’, and ‘Up the Mountain’.


Joan Shelley, The Spur

Joan Shelley has issued her first album in three years, following up 2019’s Like the River Loves the Sea with The Spur. Out now via No Quarter Records, the 12-track effort was produced by James Elkington and features collaborations with Bill Callahan, Meg Baird, and the British novelist Max Porter, as well as Nathan Salsburg, whom Shelley married in June of 2021. The songs on the record were written between the fall of 2019 and the fall of 2020; at the time of recording, Shelley was seven months pregnant with her first child. “The Spur is the result of a period of opposite extremes: of intellectual hyper-connection and physical isolation,” Shelley explained in a press release. “This album will forever be fused with the memory of our marriage, the birth of our child, and the intense joy despite the darkness.”


Katie Alice Greer, Barbarism

Katie Alice Greer, formerly the lead singer of Priests, has put out her debut solo album via FourFour Records. Following three EPs – Freaky 57, 3 Colors, and No One Else on EarthBarbarism was written, performed, produced, and mixed entirely by Greer. Ahead of its release, she shared the tracks ‘Captivated’, ‘FITS/My Love Can’t Be’‘Dreamt I Talk To Horses’, and ‘Flag Wave Pt. 2’. “It was a very exploratory process for me because this is the first time in so long that I’ve been decoupled from the responsibility of being sort of a spokesperson for a group,” Greer told NPR. “That often informed a lot of my songwriting sensibilities in the past. This album was stretching out a little bit and making space for that, really giving myself permission to say: this is how I’m feeling these days, when it’s just me.”


Martin Courtney, Magic Sign

Real Estate frontman Martin Courtney has released Magic Sign, his first solo album since 2015’s Many Moons, via Domino. The LP was recorded, mixed, and co-produced by Rob Schnapf at Mant Sounds in Los Angeles and features contributions from Matt Barrick, Oliver Hill, Kacey Johansing, and Tim Ramsey. Ahead of its release, Courtney unveiled the tracks ‘Sailboat’ and ‘Corncob’. When he was a teenager, Courtney explained in press materials, he would get into a car with friends, “thoroughly confused,” and “look for familiar green signs with arrows pointing to towns we’d heard of. We’d call them ‘magic signs’.”


Alexisonfire, Otherness

Otherness is Alexisonfire’s first new album in almost 13 years. The Canadian post-hardcore group’s latest follows 2009’s Old Crows/Young Cardinals and was self-produced in about a week. “A continuous thread through the fabric of Alexisonfire is the state of otherness,” the band stated in press materials. “Otherness drew us all to spaces where a band like this could be formed. We attract the type of individuals that have all felt the sensation of being strange or unique. Perceived or otherwise, otherness has followed us through childhood, adolescence, and into our adult lives. It drives our tastes and proclivities. It bonds us with ourselves and others. And make no mistake, even at our most domestic and mundane moments, we are true outliers.”

Where The Crawdads Sing is an adaptation of Delia Owens’ 2018 novel of the same name; it was produced by Reese Witherspoon and stars Daisy Edgar-Jones. “As soon as I heard there was a film in the works starring the incredible @daisyedgarjones and produced by the brilliant @reesewitherspoon, I knew I wanted to be a part of it from the musical side,” Swift wrote on Instagram when the trailer for the film was unveiled, teasing the new track. “I wrote the song ‘Carolina’ alone and asked my friend @aarondessner to produce it. I wanted to create something haunting and ethereal to match this mesmerizing story.”

In a new post, Swift explained: “About a year & half ago I wrote a song about the story of a girl who always lived on the outside, looking in. Figuratively & literally. The juxtaposition of her loneliness & independence. Her curiosity & fear all tangled up. Her persisting gentleness & the world’s betrayal of it.”

“I wrote this one alone in the middle of the night and then @AaronDessner and I meticulously worked on a sound that we felt would be authentic to the moment when this story takes place,” she added. “I made a wish that one day you would hear it.”

Where The Crawdads Sing arrives in theaters on July 15.

3 Main Factors Affecting the Quality of Life of Men

It’s no secret that men’s health and well-being are often neglected. This is evident in the fact that men die, on average,  five years younger than women. It is well known that smoking and excessive drinking can shorten your life expectancy. So it’s important to start optimizing men’s health with bhrt.

But did you know that having an impaired quality of life can also have an impact on how long you live? 

There are several factors that can affect the quality of life in men, including age, hormones, diet and nutrition. By understanding these factors, men can take steps to improve their quality of life.

Factor 1: Age

As people age, they often worry about how their lifestyle will change and whether they will be able to maintain the same level of quality of life as before. After all, age can bring physical changes that make it more difficult to do the things we enjoy or take for granted, like going for a walk or climbing stairs.

Additionally, age can also lead to cognitive decline, which can make it hard to remember things or make decisions. However, it’s important to keep in mind that aging is not a disease, and there is no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to how age will affect the quality of life. 

While some people may experience a significant decline in their later years, others may find that their quality of life remains surprisingly high.

How to feel good as you age

As we age, it becomes more important than ever to take care of our bodies and minds. Senior citizens are often at higher risk for conditions such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, and dementia. However, there are steps that everyone can take to reduce their risk of developing these conditions.

Maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet, and getting regular exercise are all important for keeping your body strong as you age. In addition, it is important to stay mentally active by engaging in activities that challenge your mind. Reading, doing crossword puzzles, and socializing with friends are great ways to keep your mind sharp as you get older.

By following these tips, you can help yourself age gracefully and stay healthy both physically and mentally.

Factor 2: Hormones

Men produce several different types of hormones, all of which play an important role in regulating various body functions. One of the most important hormones is testosterone, which is responsible for sexual development and function.

Testosterone levels typically peak during adolescence and early adulthood and then decline with age. Low testosterone can lead to a number of problems, including low sex drive, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, and mood swings.

Another important hormone is human growth hormone (HGH), which helps to regulate body composition and metabolism. A decrease in HGH levels can cause decreased mental well‐being, low energy levels, and increased social isolation.

While there is no way to completely prevent the decline in hormone levels that occurs with age, there are treatments available that can help to mitigate some of the associated problems.

How to keep hormones in balance

Testosterone replacement therapy can help to restore normal hormone levels and alleviate many of the symptoms of low testosterone. With proper treatment, men can often enjoy a good quality of life despite the aging process. Therapy can help to improve quality of life by alleviating a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, low sex drive, and erectile dysfunction. 

For men with growth hormone deficiency doctor can prescribe HGH therapy. HGH therapy can help to improve the quality of life in men by increasing muscle mass, bone density, and reducing body fat. In addition to improving quality of life, the benefits of HGH therapy for men are also helping to reduce the risk of age-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and heart disease. As a result, HGH therapy is an important tool for preserving health and vitality in older men.

Factor 3: Diet and nutrition

Diet and nutrition play a major role in the quality of life and life expectancy. Eating a healthy diet can help reduce the risk of developing certain chronic diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and some forms of cancer. Furthermore, eating a healthy diet can also help to reduce the symptoms of existing chronic diseases.

Individuals with arthritis often find that their symptoms improve when they eat a diet that is rich in fruits and vegetables. In addition to chronic disease, diet and nutrition also affect cognitive function and mental health. For instance, research has shown that individuals who consume a diet that is high in omega-3 fatty acids are less likely to experience depression and anxiety.

Also, diet and nutrition play a role in bone health. Individuals who consume a diet that is high in calcium and vitamin D are less likely to develop osteoporosis.

How and what to eat to improve your quality of life

A healthy diet is essential for good quality of life. Eating the right foods can help you maintain a healthy weight, have more energy, and avoid diseases. So what are the best foods to eat for good quality of life? Is the carnivore diet good for you?

  1. Focus on eating plenty of fruits and vegetables. These foods are packed with nutrients that are essential for good health. Make sure to include a variety of different colors and types in your diet to get the most benefit.
  2. Choose lean protein sources. Lean meats, fish, and poultry are great choices for getting the protein your body needs without excess fat. Eggs and beans are also excellent sources of protein.
  3. Eat more whole grains. Whole grains provide fiber and other nutrients that can improve your health. Look for products that list “whole wheat” or “whole grain” as the first ingredient.

Include dairy in your diet. Dairy products are a great source of calcium and other nutrients that are essential for good health. Choose low-fat or fat-free dairy products to get the most benefit.

The best bitcoin casinos for money

The anonymity of bitcoin has attracted many gamblers. The use of crypto allows users to remain in the shadows and make transactions without commissions. In addition, you can avoid problems with the law, since in some countries the tax office may be interested in where the money came from in a particular account.

Today, you can pay with BTC wallets in almost any online casino. Many sites are even ready to offer users additional bonuses for using crypto. Let’s take a closer look at which platforms accept this currency, and how to find an honest crypto-casino.

The best crypto casinos for money with bonuses

Despite the wild popularity of bitcoin, in many online casinos, payments are made exclusively through verified e-wallets, SMS, credit and debit cards.

Basically, the ability to pay with bitcoins is being introduced to young gambling resources, since the latter are interested in increasing their customer base in the shortest possible time. And anonymity, lack of verification, and fast payouts are what attract experienced and novice gamblers.

Top crypto casino of the year:

Tower.bet. This is a young, dynamically developing portal, which opened only in 2018. The casino has exacted popularity for many reasons. First, there is a great range of games. Secondly, the functionality is well thought out on the site. And, of course, one of the most significant advantages of bitcoin casino tower.bet is support for cryptocurrencies. Here you can pay with several coins, including bitcoins. As for the bonus program, it is done very well. The user is offered 5 deposit bonuses, reload promotions, free spins for activity, birthday no deposit, tournaments, lotteries, as well as additional deposit bonuses for using BTC.

Drift Red PingWin. This is another new online casino owned by SoftSwiss. The portal differs in that it accepts all currently known cryptocurrencies, although it is allowed to make transactions with other payment methods if desired. Another interesting nuance is the presence of cranes. In the casino, you can enter captchas, and for this, the player will be credited with bitcoins. This nuance makes it possible to collect your first bank without investments at all. Red PingWin also has a good bonus program. It offers a multi-level loyalty program, a welcome deposit bonus, reload incentives for replenishing an account on weekends, tournaments, and much more. The customers are pleased with the choice of bitcoin slots and the fact that low wagers are set for all bonuses, so it is not difficult to win back.

Bit Starz. This is an online casino that has been proven over the years and has been operating for over 5 years. There is a great range of games from top providers. Transactions are carried out in three currencies, but in 2015 the functionality was finalized, and it became possible to pay with bitcoins. Moreover, when withdrawing money through a digital coin, no commissions are charged, and the user can even count on additional rewards. The bonus program at the casino is also not bad – free spins and welcome bonuses are given upon registration, there are reload incentives, a loyalty program, no deposit bonuses, and goodies for inviting a friend using your referral link.

Mr.Bit. This portal was one of the first to introduce the ability to pay with bitcoin cryptocurrency. Over time, other digital coins began to be accepted here, including Ripple, DogCoin, Ethereum, and Bitcoin Cash. A distinctive feature of the Mr. Bit online casino is that there are faucets here, and tasks for users are regular. Thanks to this, everyone can earn start-up capital for the game. The resource also offers quite good bonuses – a deposit promotion after registration, no deposit on birthday, a loyalty program, reload perks in the form of free spins for deposits on weekends.
