There's so much music and yet so little time to listen to it, which means you barely have enough time to find it. Let us help you with this roundup of some of the albums that you can stream online this week.
Artist: Florence and the Machine
Album: How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful
Where: Consequence of Sound
"Compared to the UK outfit's previous releases, the new album 'comes from a quieter place, one that is less grand and more vulnerable,' explains frontwoman Florence Welch. It was written during a period of 'down time' after being on the road for many months. 'Without the structure of touring, you have to face your own chaos,' she says of the eye-opening experience."
Artist: Ryan Hemsworth
Album: Ryanpack Vol. 2
Where: Exclaim.ca
"The new 10-song set is bookended by some Canadian cultural gold, opening with an intro from Nardwuar the Human Serviette and wrapping up with a remix of Sum 41's 'In Too Deep'."

Artist: Sun Kil Moon
Album: Universal Themes
Where: SunKilMoon.com
The new Mark Kozelek record under the Sun Kil Moon moniker is unexpectedly streaming in it's entirety on his website. The album drops today and there's no indication of how long the stream will last but, if you miss it, Kozelek did an interview with Run The Jewels' EL-P which goes track by track through the whole album.
Artist: No Joy
Album: More Faithful
Where: Exclaim.ca
"The new set of songs boasts No Joy's heaviest and fastest musical moments to date, but Jasamine White-Gluz and Laura Lloyd still manage to cut through layers of distortion and bursts of noise with their angelic vocals."
Artist: Sharon Van Etten
Album: I Don't Want To Let You Down EP
Where: CBC Music
"Ranging from reimagined takes, stripped-down solo versions and looped-out extended cuts, the recording is essential for fans of the alt-country innovators."
