Sugarcult’s continued (or perhaps continuing is a better word) progression as a band is evident on their latest release, Lights Out. Crashing drums and power chords highlight the band’s pop punk roots, but more complex guitar interludes and scruffier vocals signal a departure. Unfortunately creating vocals that sound like Tim Pagnotta’s been smoking two packs a day since the release of Palm Trees and Powerlines is a bit much.

Here are some albums that will be in-stores tomorrow September 12th, 2006.
