New music, some better than others…Wu-Tang’s Raekwon brings Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang, with its slew of big-time guests stepping it up a notch (Busta Rhymes, Ghostface, and others); good ‘ol benign college alt-rock band R.E.M spits out another one; the fearsome Finnish five release Relentless Reckless Forever. For the punk kiddies, there’s Avril’s new one, Goodbye Lullaby.

Broken Bells, the magical collaboration of Danger Mouse and James Mercer, are releasing a new EP, Meyrin Fields, slated for a March 29^th release which will feature three unreleased songs as well as “An Easy Life” (off the iTunes bonus edition of their debut album). Check the track list after the jump.
