This week\u2019s super six starts with High As Hope<\/em><\/strong>, the long-awaited new album from Florence + The Machine<\/strong> and, although sprinkled with collaborators, it\u2019s still at its core a very Florence album: confessional, poetic lyricism is very much the order of the day and this album will come to rank amongst her very finest. The Now Now<\/em><\/strong> finds the world\u2019s most successful virtual act, Gorillaz<\/strong>, taking it back to the core creative crew: blue-haired, sweet-natured dreamer 2D on vocals; whip-smart Japanese badass Noodle on guitar; Brooklyn-born philosopher and the meat\u2013behind-the-beat Russel Hobbs on drums, and bass duties taken up by erstwhile Gangreen Gang member Ace. Industrial metal legends Nine Inch Nails<\/strong> \u2018complete\u2019 the album they set out to make in 2016 with the third in a trilogy of EPs, Bad Witch<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 the most unexpected and challenging work Nine Inch Nails has ever created. If Trent Reznor were to retire now, I cannot envision a more perfect end-point to his career. Ray Davies<\/strong>\u2019 journey through America continues in Our Country: Americana Act II<\/em><\/strong>, on which the Kinks frontman reflects on his experiences in America, personal reformation and, eventually, rediscovery and celebration of his own origins. Gravity<\/em><\/strong> aptly finds British hard rockers Bullet For My Valentine<\/strong> rewriting their own future \u2013 finding new ways to invent heavy noise and stretching their creative wings like never before, delicately balancing film-score electronica and icy synths in their trademark hellfire of hard rock.<\/p>\n

Our album of the release is, of course, Equals<\/em><\/strong>, a fiery reminder that The Alarm<\/strong> are one of the most durable outfits around and, in Mike Peters, they have an ironman of a leader whose smouldering musical passion echoes his steely will for getting through a world that hasn\u2019t always delivered the kindest of news. Mike Peters will be playing an intimate acoustic set on 6 July at 6.30pm<\/strong> to launch the album. This will be a busy one, but you can guarantee entry by pre-ordering the album. If you can\u2019t make it but would like a signed copy, just let us know and we\u2019ll organise it.<\/p>\n
