Bands: Please put your band name or important item in your subject header, it is how I search my inbox. For instance, put "CMJ" in your subject instead of a generic: "Check this out" or "Hi". I'm putting together another CMJ spotlight, so send in your emails!
Anyway, once again, in its 7th installment, I present to you GOING FOR GOLD.
SUCH GOLD

It's been a busy week for this Rochester band, Such Gold. They just announced that they've signed a deal with Razor & Tie Records, which will be coming out Spring 2012. We're so far from the release date that I don't actually have a cover artwork for the album. The picture you see is just the band.
Such Gold just wrapped their UK tour, and starting in October, they'll be on tour with Polar Bear Club, Fireworks, and Balance And Composure.
THE GOLDEN AWESOME

Not much is known about this band, The Golden Awesome. They are from Wellington, New Zealand, probably just a skip and a hop from Sally in Sydney.
Anyway, the band's debut (self-titled?) album is out now (as of September 27th) via M'Lady Records. However, if you're outside of New Zealand, you'll have to wait until November 15th.
The first 200 LPs is available on colored vinyl. I am assuming the color is 'gold' or bright yellow. Physical record is not your deal? No problem, it's available digitally as well.
THE HEAVY DREAM
theheavydream.com
Under the Golden Sun is the latest release from The Heavy Dream. The only thing I really know is that the album was done in a "barn studio" called Barn Window and the band name might be just a stage name for one Dave King.
King said that his album, "... is the product of over a years worth of recording and I was extremely fortunate to have some of my favourite musicians, who just happen to be some of my favourite people play on the record! Included in this cast are Pat Sansone (Wilco, The Autumn Defense), Paul Linklater and James Strachan."
The album comes out October 11th, but you can preview and download the free title track at bandcamp.com
INCA GOLD
facebook.com/incagoldmusic
Inca Gold formed last year and already have two EPs, Inca Gold I and Inca Gold II. Closing out their trilogy of EPs will be called (what else?) Inca Gold III, out in November of this year.
Their biography lists that they sound like a "psychedelic mix of Morricone-esque cinematics, pop sensibilities and creative song writing", but that they've been compared to MGMT and Radiohead (OK Computer-era).
