New Releases Roundup: May 6

It's a strong week for new releases from female artists, who dominate this week's New Releases Roundup. British singer Lily Allen returns from a five-year hiatus with Sheezus, which finds her sniping, sarcastic attitude still intact. Lyyke Li looks appropriately ghostly on the cover of I Never Learn, a darkly somber collection of austere break-up ballads, while tUnE-yArDs take a trip to Haiti and reflect the experience on Nikki Nack. Also out this week are new albums from Sarah McLachlan, Natalie Merchant, and a collaboration between Ben Harper and his mother, coincidentally just in time for Mother's Day.
