Kicking off 25 August<\/strong>\u2019s releases we have Villains<\/em><\/strong>, the seventh album from Josh Homme\u2019s band Queens Of The Stone Age<\/strong>, who have managed the tricky feat of producing an album that moves their sound forward but still sounds like the Queens. Even if you can\u2019t make it to their in-store album launch, The Loved Ones<\/em><\/strong> by Flyte<\/strong> is well worth checking out for its intricate indie-pop songwriting and plethora of harmonies. Iron & Wine<\/strong>\u2019s new album, Beast Epic<\/em><\/strong>, is a series of vignettes, observations and regular songs that redeem through joy and a certain expectation of grace. On Holiday Destination<\/em><\/strong>, her brilliant and compelling third album, Nadine Shah<\/strong> widens her focus from complicated relationships to the world at large. Exile In The Outer Ring<\/em><\/strong> is a portrait in which EMA<\/strong> renders Middle American poverty and resentment with frightening realism and deep empathy. Light In Your Mind<\/em><\/strong> is Cymbals<\/strong>\u2019 first album in 2 years: guitar-flecked electro at its most hypnotic and sublime; its unfettered adrenaline rush is fun with a capital \u2018F\u2019. Oh Sees<\/strong> return with their umpteenth album, Orcs<\/em><\/strong>, and they are in gut-pleasingly heavy form, nimbly mixing dashes of abandon and menace on this fresh batch of brooders and bruisers. Susanne Sundf\u00f8r<\/strong>\u2019s dark heart gets more introspective on Music For People In Trouble<\/em><\/strong>; to deceptively sparse accompaniment of slide and acoustic guitar and piano, she struggles to contextualise a world that continues as normal despite relentless internal and external conflict.<\/p>\n

Release of the week is A Deeper Understanding<\/em><\/strong>, the culmination of 3 and a half years\u2019 work by The War On Drugs<\/strong> since the release of the epic Lost In The Dream<\/em>, and that rarest of things \u2013 a true band album which shines with an unbridled exuberance and a real sense of exploration. Highly recommended.<\/p>\n
