In the autumn of 1971, Sly And The Family Stone released the seminal There\u2019s A Riot Goin\u2019 On<\/em>, a record booming with the passion of revolution. With this in mind, Yo La Tengo<\/strong> have channelled a similar fear (though with an expected tonal shift) into a calming album that functions simultaneously as both a direct response to and a welcome distraction from the chaos at hand. There\u2019s A Riot Going On<\/em><\/strong> further showcases the band\u2019s laudable ability to expand upon an established sound without ever losing sight of the cohesive, delicate enthusiasm that makes it blossom so organically.<\/p>\n

Creep Show<\/strong> brings together John Grant and the dark funk of analogue electronic band Wrangler to create Mr Dynamite<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 a debut album packed with experimental pop and surreal funk. Grant\u2019s exhilarating croon decorates the twists and hooks to be explored on this consistently inventive record.<\/p>\n

Stone Temple Pilots<\/strong> release their highly anticipated new album. The self-titled work is the band\u2019s first album with the new lead singer, Jeff Gutt. Despite being one of the best-selling bands of the 1990s with platinum records and a Grammy to its credit, guitarist Dean DeLeo says: \u201cWe are thrilled about what lies ahead. The best way for us to honour our past is to keep making new music.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

After the success of their critically acclaimed top 20 album Eyes Wide, Tongue Tied<\/em>, Scottish indie rock legends The Fratellis<\/strong> return with their charming, playful and energetic new album In Your Own Sweet Time<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Kim Wilde<\/strong>\u2019s return to recording isn\u2019t a comeback, but Here Come The Aliens<\/em><\/strong> does mark a fresh start in the iconic singer\u2019s extraordinary career. Proud of her past, but focused on the future, Kim has never stopped singing or selling out tours \u2013 she has played more shows in the past decade than ever before. Kim\u2019s trademark lust for life with the strongest set of songs of her near 40-year career. Vocally, she has never sounded better.<\/p>\n

Our release of the week is I\u2019ll Be Your Girl<\/em><\/strong>, on which The Decemberists<\/strong> explore a new sound on their inspired eighth studio album embracing such diverse influences as Roxy Music and New Order to spark a new creative path. \u201cOur ambition this time was really just to get out of our comfort zone,<\/em>\u201d says Colin Meloy. The songs share a mood that\u2019s steeped in our current times and condition \u2013 \u201cexuberant nihilism; an apocalyptic dance party was what we envisioned.<\/em>\u201d This is the sound of a veteran band finding new inspiration, unafraid of challenging itself to re-connect with its creativity.<\/p>\n
