The band\u2019s 12th studio album was produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Andrew Watt.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>It All Comes Down to This<\/em><\/strong> features 10 straight-to-the-point tracks and takes <strong>A Certain Ratio<\/strong> back to their roots, with a sprinkling of electronics for good measure. It is the first time the band has recorded as the core 3-piece line-up of Jez Kerr, Martin Moscrop and Donald Johnson with no members of their live set-up or additional collaborators. Following on from last year\u2019s acclaimed album <em>1982<\/em> and electrifying EP <em>2023<\/em>, <em>It All Comes Down to This<\/em> continues the lineage of constant progression demonstrated by the band.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lucy Rose<\/strong> was busy balancing the success of her own career with running a record label when she was diagnosed with a rare illness in the summer of 2021. <strong><em>This Ain\u2019t the Way You Go Out<\/em><\/strong> is an album constructed from the ashes of despair, nurturing the tiniest of green shoots and giving life to something that had looked otherwise spent. It\u2019s a new era for Lucy, and an era in its purest, truest sense. This is an artist re-awakening herself to the power of music, and having a lot of fun in the process of its discovery and delivery.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Live on Mountain Stage: Outlaws &amp; Outliers<\/em><\/strong> compiles some highlights from the \u2018Mountain Stage\u2019 radio programme curated by the show\u2019s co-founder and long-time host, Larry Groce. With four decades worth of recordings in its archives, many documenting artists in their formative years, this is an essential release. \u201c<em>I\u2019ve had the privilege of listening to some of these tracks and they\u2019re just jaw-droppingly gorgeous<\/em>,\u201d says Groce. Produced by West Virginia Public Broadcasting in Charleston, \u2018Mountain Stage\u2019 is heard on nearly 300 public radio stations nationwide and continues to present world-class performances with the same passion, dedication, and curiosity that\u2019s guided it from the start. Some of their most iconic guests include John Prine, Wilco, R.E.M., Phish, Townes Van Zandt, Patti Smith, Allen Ginsberg, Dr. John, Buddy Guy and Preservation Hall Jazz Band, to name but a few.<\/p>\n<p>Grammy- and Oscar-winning producer, musician and songwriter <strong>T Bone Burnett<\/strong> is back to form with an album of 12 folk tracks featuring artists Lucius, Roseanne Cash and Weyes Blood. \u201c<em>With this record, I tried to treat myself as kindly as I would try to treat other people,<\/em>\u201d says Burnett, who likens his producing approach to that of a photographer. \u201c<em>I try to find the person\u2019s best angle and light them so they look the most like themselves or the best version of themselves. And this time, rather than staying in the romantic notion I previously had of myself \u2013 of a rebellious artist, a firebrand or whatever I thought I was trying to be \u2013 I just tried to be kind to myself.<\/em>\u201d Ultimately, in looking for \u2018you\u2019, T Bone Burnett found himself on <strong><em>The Other Side<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>There can be only one choice for our release of the week. Undeniable, unreviewable and unstoppable: the behemoth that is <strong>Taylor Swift<\/strong> returns with <strong><em>The Tortured Poets Department<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 her eleventh studio album.
