The newest GY!BE is their best since Lift Yr Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven. It's got that gigantic, majestic quality that recent albums seemed to lack. I'd say it's probably a bit more accessible too. We all probably know what the title's about, it's good to see a band not staying silent. The fact that the number is vastly lower than what it was in September when the album came out is a message in itself. The imagery that the music evokes is powerful and devastating.

New Mogwai. It's very Mogwai. This is a good thing.

Collab between Jon Hopkins and Olafur Arnalds like the proverbial RKO outta nowhere. As @Titters of this parish puts it, it's exactly what you'd expect. Perfect venn diagram crossover for me

Thoroughly enjoying The Cure's new album this morning! Their 6 Music session was brilliant.

If you like your dream pop with a jangly hint of Slowdive, you could do a lot worse than Deary's new EP, particularly the opening track 'Aurelia', and previous single 'The Drift'.

ha, I just found out that Slowdive's drummer played on three of the tracks.  So more than a hint of them in the music.

There is a new Alex Iwobi song out -  Yes you read that correctly

I'm only one listen in but, my god, it's magnificent! It's insane that a band who have been going nearly 50 years can put out an album that stands right up there with their best work - bar 'Disintegration' obviously, which is in my top 5 albums of all time. 

 

Incidentally, BBC 2 have a whole night of programmes dedicated to The Cure tomorrow night - that's my Saturday night sorted!

Enjoying the new Xiu Xiu album! It's catchier and more accessible than some of their recent albums, but it still maintains the experimentation and weirdness. Some really cool sounding songs, really interesting and colourful. Sometimes Xiu Xiu can lean a bit too much towards the nightmarishly weird but on this one they've made that weirdness work.
