Latest new releases

21 January’s new releases open with Aoife O’Donovan, co-founder of the trio I’m With Her, who continues her passion for collaboration on Age Of Apathy, an album that includes guest appearances by Madison Cunningham and Allison Russell. Formed shortly before the pandemic, Yard Act have incredibly only played three gigs but have already released two superb singles, and debut album The Overload pulses with post-punk indie dance, their creativity thriving in difficult times. While the rest of the world was put on hold, alt-rock stalwarts The Sherlocks underwent a rebirth, with a new guitarist and bassist joining vocalist Kiaran Crook and drummer brother Brandon, and World I Understand stands as the band’s most unshackled and ambitious album to date. Acclaimed folk performer Jake Xerxes Fussell’s fourth album, Good And Green Again, is the most conceptually focused, breathtakingly rendered and enigmatically poignant record of his wondrous catalogue, and includes his first original compositions with atmospheric arrangements. And Ludovico Einaudi returns to the ivories for his first solo piano record of new material since I Giorni in 2001. Underwater was written with a fresh approach in mind, which can be heard in its memorable melodies.

Our release of the week is Things Are Great, the first studio album in more than five years from Band Of Horses. Sonically, it’s a return to the raw ethos of their earlier work, and it’s emotionally intense, both on a personal and elemental level, with founder Ben Bridwell more autobiographical than he’s ever been on record.

Our pick of the new year’s releases opens with The Boy Named If (14 Jan), a new album of urgent, immediate songs from Elvis Costello & The Imposters with bright melodies, guitar solos that sting and a quick step to the rhythm. The Wombats have produced some of the most captivating, inventive and forward-thinking music of their career to date while working over Zoom from their bases in Los Angeles, Oslo and London to create Fix Yourself, Not The World (7 Jan). In the afterglow of her acclaimed 2020 album Silver Ladders, Los Angeles-based harpist Mary Lattimore returns with a culminating counterpart release, Collected Pieces 2015–2020 (14 Jan), featuring new and previously unreleased material, Bandcamp-only singles and other obscurities. The Temperance Movement is one of Britain’s finest rock bands of the past decade, and Caught On Stage (Live & Acoustic) (14 Jan) features a collection of rare live tracks recorded in various locations, including intimate acoustic live shows, radio sessions with Planet Rock and rehearsal-room recordings, and it’s a must-have for any fan of the band. Arriving in the wake of his critically acclaimed debut solo album A Quickening, Orlando Weeks’ new record once again leans into themes of new life and parenthood, and Hop Up (14 Jan) is an altogether more joyous and life-affirming statement.

Our release of the week is Toy:Box (7 Jan). Following his triumphant Glastonbury 2000 performance, David Bowie entered the studio with his band to record new interpretations of songs he’d first recorded from 1964–71 in the ‘old school’ way with the band playing live. This fascinating album now finally sees the light of day in a set packed with alternative mixes and versions including proposed B-sides.
