Latest new releases

Our basket of delights for 27 April opens with Blossoms, who return with their second album, Cool Like You, blissful pop that adds an anthemic rock quality to the band’s ’80s-inspired synth-layered sound. Van Morrison and jazz organ virtuoso Joey DeFrancesco showcase electrifying musical collaborations on You’re Driving Me Crazy, combining fresh interpretations of blues and jazz standards with cuts from Van’s songbook. Last Man Standing, released for Willie Nelson’s 85th birthday, acknowledges the transience of time while marvelling at what the world has to offer, and finds Willie riding a creative peak. Welsh ragga-metal pioneers Skindred roar on their seventh album, Big Tings – a magnificent beast full of heavy, distortion-laden riff punches melding with frenzied rapping – big songs, big sound! And Brooklyn’s We Are Scientists return with Megaplex, ten brand-new splashes of colourful and utterly addictive power-pop to serve as a welcome distraction in these bleak times.

Our release of the week is In The Rainbow Rain, the most immediate album yet from Okkervil River. It’s a startling left turn from their critically lauded album Away, and an exuberant declaration of hope.

We start our 6 of the best for 20 April with Volunteer, yet another fine example of how Old Crow Medicine Show remains one of the most vibrant and forward-thinking traditional bands of their time. Released 50 years after being recorded, Live At The Fillmore East 1968 captures two blistering performances at the legendary New York venue by The Who, then at the height of their powers. Accidentally On Purpose, the highly anticipated third album from The Shires, combines massive country-pop choruses and emotive lyrics about their whirlwind journey, relationships and their time in the States. Check your prejudice at the door and you’ll find Sting & Shaggy’s new album – yes you read that right, the Jamaican dancehall legend and former Police icon have teamed up – to be a thoroughly enjoyable pop reggae album. And David Bowie’s Aladdin Sane gets a special 45th anniversary (yes, it really has been that long) vinyl reissue, pressed on strictly limited silver vinyl.

Our release of the week comes from American rockers Black Stone Cherry, who return barely a year after Kentucky with Family Tree, a rich stew of rock’n’soul with a hefty dose of the blues thrown in for good measure and their best, most mature release to date.
