Mondays can be a drag, especially when it’s just warm enough to rain but still cold enough to see your breath. Thankfully NPR is giving you a reason to keep your ears warm. Starting today, they have put up a slew of new albums to stream in their entirety, including Sleater-Kinney‘s No Cities to Love and Viet Cong‘s self-titled debut.

Sleater-Kinney’s highly anticipated return to the forefront of music has now hit full gear. No Cities to Love is a rock record stuffed with snappy punches and sassy hooks that will no doubt see the most spins on NPR’s streaming service. Considering it’s been years since they put out new material, Sleater-Kinney worked hard to make No Cities to Love sound stronger than imagined. We’re stoked to see the three coming back swinging hard. Listen to it here.

Canadian post-punk group Viet Cong got our attention with their last EP and their epic single “Silhouettes” from their upcoming LP. Those two things along were enough to get us smitten with them enough to include them on our list of Most Anticipated Albums of 2015. Now that we can hear the album in full, it’s not letting us down. Listen up for metallic guitar tones and relentless angst. This one will be spinning all the way through December. Listen to it here.

So start listening and slip those headphones on. Your ears (and body) will thank you.
