Latest new releases

The first of 21 March’s smashers is Communion, the acclaimed debut from Catherine Anne Davies aka The Anchoress, which is finally getting a full release on LP and CD 14 years after its original issue. Since the beginning The Horrors have been determinedly innovative as well as critically acclaimed, and Night Life sees the band once more shapeshift into a new form, with a new sonic outlook and – this time – a new line-up. On The EVEN MORE Freewheelin’ Jeffrey Lewis the singer continues to strip away the artifice to reach for the humanity behind, and this is mirrored by the album cover: a tribute to Bob Dylan iconic 1963 cover shot, but with a twist! KOKO is Lottery Winners’ most adventurous album while being home to their most infectious songs yet, including a funk anthem, a power ballad, and the most uplifting, celebratory songs about panic attacks and ADHD you’ll ever hear! Finally, My Morning Jacket continue to upholding their long-established cultural legacy while sustaining the curiosity and creative hunger of their earliest days on Is, which expands the limits of their sound while elevating their artistry to unprecedented heights.

Our release of the week is The Great Western Road, whose songs reflect the journey that Deacon Blue has taken over the past 40 years, and remain honest to the age and experience they all share, with joyous lead single ‘Late ’88’ fondly recalling the care-free excitement of those early days.

The first of 14 March’s hottest albums is Nation Shall Speak Unto Nation, the tenth solo album from Edwyn Collins, recorded at his Clashnarrow Studio in Helmsdale, north-east Scotland, and co-produced by Edwyn with Sean Read and Jake Hutton, who all play on the album. Symphony of Lungs came to life at the BBC Proms as an orchestral and choral masterpiece with an outstanding performance from Florence + The Machine and Jules Buckley, reimagining fan favourites such as ‘Dog Days Are Over’ and ‘You’ve Got the Love’ in addition to rarities Florence hadn’t performed for many years. When Karl Wallinger left The Waterboys to form World Party, it took just one song, ‘Ship of Fools’, to convince fans that this was no mere side project; Best in Show is a 16-song greatest hits package drawn from the the band’s work between 1986 and 2000. The Father of Make Believe carves out new sonic territory for Coheed and Cambria amidst the wailing guitars, firework-crack drums, and Claudio Sanchez’s aching, powerful voice; and this time, he’s writing more directly about his life and, especially, his unusual career. Finally, Stygian Waves builds on the impeccable musicianship and stellar songwriting of Envy of None’s acclaimed debut, boldly venturing into a spectrum of new guises – from alt-pop and industrial rock to synthwave and hard rock.

Our release of the week, The Overview, sees Steven Wilson return to expansive, progressive music, a genre he helped redefine: the two wildly ambitious side-long tracks are each made up of distinctive musical sections that flow from one to the other, playing out as unique and continuous pieces. Headphones and a wide-open mind are recommended.
