Support new music: choose from our favourite new albums this month.

Another week, another project involving Conor Oberst which doesn't include the word 'Desaparecidos'. This one is slightly more interesting than most though.

The Bright Eyes front-man will team up with Jim James, M. Ward and fellow Bright Eyes member Mike Mogis for an album under the moniker Monsters of Folk. The self-titled album will be released on September 22 via Rough Trade in Europe (with Shangri-La and Spunk handling the release in North America and Australia respectively).

If you don't know what to expect from the names mentioned above, there's little we can do to help. Here comes the track-listing:

Monsters of Folk - S/T

01. Dear God (sincerely M.O.F.)
02. Say Please
03. Whole Lotta Losin'
04. Temazcal
05. The Right Place
06. Baby Boomer
07. Man Named Truth
08. Goodway
09. Ahead of the Curve
