New releases are going to start slowing down in December, so here’s your chance to review what you want to put on your holiday wish and gift lists. Count on WORT to always bring you the best new rock, blues, jazz, world, electronic, heavy music and much, much more to help you make your decisions!
Here are our charts for all of November. Anchorsong (pictured above) crosses genres to chart in both World and Electronic. And once again the prolific Ty Segall (below) hits #1 multiple times in the same year with his new album Fudge Sandwich on In The Red Records.
