Latest new releases

Our pick of 2 October’s new releases start with Live Around The World, which presents a compilation of concert highlights from Queen + Adam Lambert captured the world over, with several available for the very first time. Good Luck With Whatever, the seventh studio album by the Los Angeles-based rock band Dawes, sets a tone all its own with a real live feel: it’s fresh, it’s raw, it’s a four-tiered seafood tower of all-American ear candy. After a ten-year spell in the house underground, Groove Armada are back with the eleven-track melting pot Edge Of The Horizon, with a stylistic thread lying somewhere between Hall and Oates, Prince and Roxy Music. Shiver is the exciting and beautiful second solo record from Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi, who teamed up with iconoclastic producer A.G. Cook of the PC music collective in what proved to be a perfect collaboration. Rodrigo y Gabriela bring their Grammy-winning latest album to the live arena with thrilling results: Mettavolution Live captures the Mexican acoustic guitar masters in all their blazing glory, playing right at the top of their game to a passionate audience.

Our album of the week is Us + Them, which presents the powerful music of Roger Waters – founder member and main creative force behind Pink Floyd – in stunning form. The album chronicles Waters’ acclaimed 2017–2018 tour and highlights a message of human rights, liberty and love, and is well worth a listen.

Our pick of 25 September’s releases start with This Dream Of You, on which Diana Krall performs variously in a quartet, a trio, duos both with a bassist and pianist, and an ensemble featuring guitar, fiddle, bass and drums – it’s music that’s both immediate and a slow burn. Blue Hearts is the fourteenth solo album by the former Hüsker Dü and Sugar frontman Bob Mould, and is “the catchiest batch of protest songs I’ve ever written in one sitting,” and indeed here are some of the most direct, confrontational lyrics of his four-decade career. Back with their first new album in 12 years, a confident and revitalised ACR jumped back into the studio following their most successful tour in over 20 years to produce ACR Loco, an album to dance to, cry to, fall in love to and most importantly, to party to. Universal Beings E&F Sides brings us fourteen new pieces of organic beat music from the sessions that produced Chicago-based drummer/producer Makaya McCraven’s critically acclaimed 2018 release. By The Fire, the seventh solo album from Sonic Youth front-man Thurston Moore, was being produced in London right up until the third week of March 2020 when Covid lock-down was imposed and features Deb Googe, Jon Leidecker aka Wobble, James Sedwards, Steve Shelley and Jem Doulton.

Our release of the week comes from the highly acclaimed IDLES, whose third album, Ultra Mono, doubles down on the vitriolic sneer and blunt social commentary of their past work. Not far beneath the surface of their self-admitted sloganeering lies a deeply complex and brutally relevant album that chews up clichés and spits them out as high art for the masses.
