Latest new releases

This week’s 6 lovelies start with Wolf Parade’s fifth album, Thin Mind, whose post-apocalyptic and dystopian narratives emerged while working at Risqué Disque, a studio housed in a stone barn in the middle of the woods. Navarasa: Nine Emotions is the transporting third album by Yorkston/Thorne/Khan, which has at its heart the nine (nava) emotions or sentiments (rasa) of the arts. Wire continue to be astonishingly forward-looking for such a long-established act, and Mind Hive has no problem vaulting over the high bar set by 2017’s Silver/Lead. Career retrospective The Strange Ones 1994–2008 reminds us how good Supergrass were (and still are), as they reform after a ten-year haitus. And Elton John’s seminal performance Live From Moscow 1979 with percussionist Ray Cooper finally gets a full release; it’s a sensation from start to finish, and Elton himself says it was one of his best-ever concerts.

Our release of the week is Hotspot, the last of the trilogy of albums produced by Stuart Price for Pet Shop Boys. Recording the album in Hansa Studios in Berlin has added a new dimension to their trademark sound.

Our super six for 10 & 17 January start with Courteeners, one of the last old-fashioned Big British Guitar Bands, who scrapped an album’s-worth of songs and then created the bold but ambiguously titled More. Again. Forever. Mercury Prize-nominated British post-punk group The Big Moon are an enormous lungful of fresh air, unleashing song after song fizzing with melody and charm on their second album Walking Like We Do (out on 10 Jan). Nada Surf’s ninth studio album, Never Not Together, is a wide-ranging collection of catchy rock songs with sharply drawn yet tenderly felt lyrics. British indie rock band Bombay Bicycle Club’s fifth, Everything Else Has Gone Wrong, is an album for anyone who’s ever turned to music in a time of crisis, whether personal or political. Pinegrove’s new album, Marigold, begins with a breath and ends with a shimmering exhalation, and is an expanded take on the blend of alt-country, indie rock and cerebral humanism that’s inspired the band’s ardent fan community.

Our album of the week is Making A New World (out on 10 Jan), a 19-track song cycle by Field Music about the after-effects of the First World War, which grew from a project for the Imperial War Museum and includes modern concerns such as air traffic control and gender reassignment surgery.
