BY Kate ShepherdPublished May 1, 2012

It's Tuesday, and after sifting through a week's worth of new music releases, we've got reviews of the biggest hits, and misses, on the shelves and online. To get the story on the latest offerings from Norah Jones, Lazer Sword, Brendon Small and more, check out our Recently Reviewed section.

To start, Norah Jones teams up with super producer Brian Burton (aka Danger Mouse) on her latest album, Little Broken Hearts, while Fela Kuti's Live in Detroit 1986 offers a glimpse into the late performer's first American tour.

On top of that, Denver-based grindcore group Catheter deliver Southwest Doom Violence, an album that lives up to its title, and metal renaissance man Brendon Small drops his latest solo effort, Brendon Small's Galaktikon.

And finally, electro-duo Lazer Sword follow up their 2010 debut with moody atmospherics on Memory, and producer Blockhead conjures up images of a city after-hours on his fifth album, Interludes After Midnight.
