Exclusive to this release, Kid Amnesiae comprises material unearthed from the <em>Kid A<\/em> and <em>Amnesiac<\/em> sessions. Along with alternate versions and elements of <em>Kid A<\/em> and <em>Amnesiac<\/em> album tracks and B-sides, Kid Amnesiae features the never-before-heard \u2018If You Say the Word\u2019 and a previously unreleased studio recording of \u2018Follow Me Around\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most anticipated follow-ups in indie-rock, <strong><em>Valentine<\/em><\/strong> was written and produced by Lindsey Jordan, aka <strong>Snail Mail<\/strong>, and co-produced by Brad Cook (Bon Iver, Waxahatchee). The album, written in 2019\u201320, is filled with romance, heartbreak, blood, sweat and tears.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Mighty Diamonds<\/strong> are among Jamaica\u2019s greatest-ever vocal trios, which is quite an accolade considering that the competition includes the Wailers, Heptones, early Burning Spear and Culture. In 1999\u20132000, British label Ruff Cutt released two singles with them: \u2018White Squall\u2019 and \u2018Better Days\u2019. Both were immediately hailed by fans who rejoiced at hearing the Diamonds in such revolutionary mood. Those songs now make their return here alongside three previously unreleased tracks from the same sessions, and all five are accompanied by matching dubs that were the equal of anything coming from Jamaica at the time. Over twenty years later and <strong><em>Better Days<\/em><\/strong> have come at last, for fans of the Diamonds and top-quality nineties\u2019 roots music.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Signals<\/em><\/strong> is the latest addition to <strong>Marconi Union<\/strong>\u2019s highly acclaimed discography. Despite having released twelve albums in the last eighteen years they continue to experiment and push boundaries. \u201c<em>In some respects Signals is a more traditional songwriting album than anything we\u2019ve done before, but it draws on the same techniques we\u2019ve used on our previous albums.<\/em>\u201d After their previous album, the largely beat-less <em>Dead Air<\/em>, one might think that Marconi Union would be primarily influenced by synth players or guitarists. However, it turns out that <em>Signals<\/em> was actually informed by the bands\u2019 admiration of a number of different drummers and this played a significant part in helping shape its sound.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diana Ross<\/strong> sings \u2018thank you\u2019 to the world. \u201c<em>This collection of songs is my gift to you with appreciation and love. I am eternally grateful that I had the opportunity to record this glorious music at this time,<\/em>\u201d says Ms Ross. Recorded in her home studio, <strong><em>Thank You<\/em><\/strong> offers a powerful, inclusive musical message of love and togetherness. With its songs of happiness, appreciation and joy, it wholeheartedly acknowledges that we are in this all together. Her family, friends and loyal and loving audiences all around the globe have been an integral part of her wonderful life\u2019s story. In this special moment, it is time to step into the light.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s only one possible choice of release of the week, as \u2013 an incredible 40 years since their last studio album \u2013 <strong>ABBA<\/strong> are back! Not only have they have announced a revolutionary new concert in which Agnetha, Bj\u00f6rn, Benny and Anni-Frid will perform digitally with a live 10-piece band in a purpose-built arena in London, but they have recorded and produced an entire new album. And <strong><em>Voyage<\/em><\/strong> is sure to delight the quartet\u2019s many fans.<\/p>\n<div id=\"thumbs_6\"><a title=\"ABBA - Voyage\" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/abba-voyage\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"ABBA - Voyage\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/211105\/ABBA.jpg\" alt=\"ABBA - Voyage\" \/><\/a><a title=\"Radiohead - Kid A Mnesia\" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/radiohead-kid-a-mnesia\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Radiohead - Kid A Mnesia\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/211105\/Radiohead.jpg\" alt=\"Radiohead - Kid A Mnesia\" \/><\/a><a title=\"Snail Mail - Valentine\" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/snail-mail-valentine\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Snail Mail - Valentine\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/211105\/SnailMail.jpg\" alt=\"Snail Mail - Valentine\" \/><\/a><a title=\"The Mighty Diamonds - Better Days\" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/mighty-diamonds-the-better-days\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"The Mighty Diamonds - Better Days\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/211105\/MightyDiamonds.jpg\" alt=\"The Mighty Diamonds - Better Days\" \/><\/a><a title=\"Marconi Union - Signals\" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/marconi-union-signals\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Marconi Union - Signals\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/211105\/MarconiUnion.jpg\" alt=\"Marconi Union - Signals\" \/><\/a><a title=\"Diana Ross - Thank You\" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/diana-ross-thank-you\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Diana Ross - Thank You\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/211105\/DianaRoss.jpg\" alt=\"Diana Ross - Thank You\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Click on an image to order your copy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our six spooky sparklers start with Kid A Mnesia, which collects Radiohead\u2019s fourth and fifth albums alongside the debut of a newly compiled third disc titled Kid Amnesiae.
