Many of the songs were co-written with the legendary John Prine, and it\u2019s a fine piece of work. <strong>Roger Waters<\/strong>\u2019 latest solo album, <strong><em>Is This The World We Really Want?<\/em><\/strong>, is a protest album, a series of howls of despair at the world. All credit to Waters \u2013 he could easily be coasting, but he has chosen to go less than gently. <strong><em>Witness<\/em><\/strong> is the follow-up to <strong>Benjamin Booker<\/strong>\u2019s critically acclaimed self-titled debut. Says Benjamin: \u201c<em>I wanted to make an record about the things in my life I never wanted to talk about,<\/em>\u201d and the result is an honest, compelling listen. <strong>Saint Etienne<\/strong> grew up in the <strong><em>Home Counties<\/em><\/strong>, and have written 16 new songs about a day in the life of this doughnut of shires that ring the capital. Indie darling <strong>Marika Hackman<\/strong> is back with <strong><em>I\u2019m Not Your Man<\/em><\/strong>, which has a gutsier sound with real punch courtesy of backing band The Big Moon. <strong>Hank Marvin<\/strong> must be one of the most influential guitar players of his generation; his 16th solo album, <strong><em>Without A Word<\/em><\/strong>, comprises 14 new recordings which feature Hank\u2019s interpretation of his all-time favourite tunes.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The Counterweight<\/em><\/strong> finds one of the UK\u2019s foremost songwriters, <strong>Thea Gilmore<\/strong>, looking inward but reflecting on the changes to the world since 2016. It\u2019s a wonderfully mature album full of songs about love, parenthood depression, and our album of the week.<\/p>\n<div id=\"thumbs\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_Thea\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Thea Gilmore - The Counterweight\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/Thea.jpg\" alt=\"Thea Gilmore - The Counterweight\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_Auerbach\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Dan Auerbach - Waiting On A Song\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/Auerbach.jpg\" alt=\"Dan Auerbach - Waiting On A Song\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_RogWaters\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Roger Waters - Is This The Life We Really Want?\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/RogWaters.jpg\" alt=\"Roger Waters - Is This The Life We Really Want?\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_BenBooker\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Benjamin Booker - Witness\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/BenBooker.jpg\" alt=\"Benjamin Booker - Witness\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_StEtienne\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Saint Etienne - Home Counties\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/StEtienne.jpg\" alt=\"Saint Etienne - Home Counties\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_Marika\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Marika Hackman - I\u2019m Not Your Man\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/Marika.jpg\" alt=\"Marika Hackman - I\u2019m Not Your Man\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_Halsey\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Halsey - hopeless fountain kingdom\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/Halsey.jpg\" alt=\"Halsey - hopeless fountain kingdom\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1703.php#r170602_Hank\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover4 alignnone\" title=\"Hank Marvin - Without A Word\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/170602\/Hank.jpg\" alt=\"Hank Marvin - Without A Word\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Click an image for more details and to order your copy.
