Don't get too excited. They all sort of suck, whether you're a metalhead or an Adams fan. The third, "Mega Wizards," would have to be my favorite if I picked one. You can probably skip the second. Stream all three here. At least he's still making music, I guess.

Three new Ryan Adams tracks

Ryan Adams serves up one (last?) slice
A few weeks back, Ryan Adams declared his intention to retire from music. In typical Adams fashion, though, he didn’t let that stop him from releasing an EP of love songs this week, Extra Cheese.
Unfortunately, aside from the cover art there's not much to get excited about. Despite Adams’ prolific past and the countless unreleased tracks known to be floating around out there, there’s no new material here, unless you count a studio version of the longtime live favorite “Hey There, Mrs. Lovely” (which technically did get a previous studio treatment on the quasi-bootleg Destroyer Sesssions). If that’s enough for you, it’s available exclusively through iTunes. Here’s the tracklist:
1. Two
2. Blossom
3. Answering Bell
4. Evergreen
5. My Love for You Is Real
6. Desire
7. Hey There, Mrs. Lovely

Ryan Adams Bows Out
Citing the losses of “someone I loved, my sense of dignity, a never ending losing battle with stage fright and now my hearing and balance due to an inner ear issue,” songwriter and SITKOT favorite Ryan Adams announced today that he is leaving the music world behind for now. Adams concludes a lengthy blog entry (and presumably his blogging days altogether), writing:
“maybe we will play again sometime and maybe i will work my way back into some kind of music situation but this is the time for me to step back now, to reel it in and i wish everyone peace and happiness and if music is your dream, or if just dreaming is your dream, may you find your way through the rough patch with ease and i hope you let go and it takes you all the way there.”
Download “A Kiss Before I Go” from the Cardinals’ incredible performance at Carnegie Music Hall last year. (Right-click and "Save Target As")
And here’s hoping the Cardinals keep on with Neal Casal’s able hands at the drafting table: “Freeway To the Canyon” (Newcastle 11-11-08) (Right-click and "Save Target As")
