Some issues of The FADER are more difficult to put together than others, with our editors pulling hair or pulling teeth to get the right stories in the right places at the right time. The music portion of FADER Number 57 was relatively easy for two reasons. First, it's our Photo Issue and many of its pages are filled with striking, provocative images by some of our favorite contributors. Second, cover stars Brightblack Morning Light and TV on the Radio both released albums that blew our minds, and the rest just fell into place based on the bounty of great new bands putting out music right now. Surprisingly, the accompanying audio podcast of music from the issue was a bigger challenge, what with all that excellent music, but we think we killed it. Grab it below and get the tracklist after the jump.
