Over the past few years Sleaford Mods have become one of the most intractable British pop stories. One of its best. Their music is drawn at a flawless fault-line of anger, tenderness and humour, a triumvirate of raw energy which frequently jostles in the space of a cadence for supremacy. On record you can hear their sinews, live you can touch their veins.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Biffy Clyro<\/strong> have announced their new album, <strong><em>A Celebration Of Endings<\/em><\/strong>. \u201c<em>This is a very forward-looking album from a personal perspective and a societal perspective,<\/em>\u201d explains frontman Simon Neil. \u201c<em>The title is about seeing the joy in things changing, rather than the sadness. Change means progression and evolution. You can retain everything you loved before, but let\u2019s lose the bad stuff. It\u2019s about trying to take back control.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Our release of the week comes from former Drive-By Trucker <strong>Jason Isbell<\/strong>, who have once again come together with <strong>The 400 Unit<\/strong> for a new album, <strong><em>Reunions<\/em><\/strong>, their follow-up to 2017\u2019s Grammy-winning <em>The Nashville Sound<\/em>. Isbell explains the album\u2019s title thus: \u201c<em>There are a lot of ghosts on this album. Sometimes the songs are about the ghosts of people who aren\u2019t around anymore, but they\u2019re also about who I used to be, the ghost of myself. I found myself writing songs that I wanted to write 15 years ago, but in those days, I hadn\u2019t written enough songs to know how to do it yet. Just now have I been able to pull it off to my own satisfaction. In that sense, it\u2019s a reunion with the me I was back then.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"thumbs_6\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases2003.php#r200515_JasonIsbell\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Jason Isbell And The 400 Unit - Reunions\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/200515\/JasonIsbell.jpg\" alt=\"Jason Isbell And The 400 Unit - Reunions\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases2003.php#r200515_SleafordMods\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Sleaford Mods - All That Glue\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/200515\/SleafordMods.png\" alt=\"Sleaford Mods - All That Glue\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases2003.php#r200515_BiffyClyro\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Biffy Clyro - A Celebration Of Endings\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/200515\/BiffyClyro.jpg\" alt=\"Biffy Clyro - A Celebration Of Endings\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Click on an image to order your copy.
