Whatcha got for us today?
Ratboys - Singin’ to an Empty Chair
The lads are back. Slacker indie with post country and vibes from Chicago. FFO Wednesday, Soccer Mommy and Hop Along
New album by Daphni - Butterfly
Dan Snaith back again with some decent reviews.
Algorithm is shit. Nothing alerted me to this.
I almost messaged you this morning with Happy Ratboys Day, but assumed you’d have known already. So…
HAPPY RATBOYS DAY
Beverly and Elizabeth Glenn Copeland
How long was I asleep?
I dunno, but it’s not like the 2 and 7 are remotely close to each other either, so no idea what I was up to there. Soz.
Residual trauma from 2025’s most baffling meme perhaps?
My friends band released a new single on Monday.
@rich-t it’s the friend you met when we came down to Winchester a few years back.
@hippy_smell is also a member nowadays too.
Have a listen, I think it’s one of the best things they’ve done
Ex Nosferatu D2 amongst others.
Only thing on my radar today:
Rafael Anton Irisarri – Points of Inaccessibility
Some more heavy drones from one of the best in the bizz.
Edit: actually, much more uplifting and less heavy than his usual sound, including some lovely wordless vocals from Karen Vogt.
Chat Pile single, Kavari EP, Mandy Indiana album!
What a day! What a great day!!
Luckily that’s not taken hold in our house, yet. We may get it soon though
Alice Costelloe - Move On With The Year
Debut from London born singer-songwriter. Mellotrons and synth led art pop in the vein of the dreamier sides of Cate le Bon and Julia Holter. Sounding good.
Sarah Nixey - Sea Fever
Fourth solo album from ex-Black Box Recorder vocalist, Sarah Nixey. Slowish hazy art pop with her captivating breathy singing style.
yeah, also looking forward to this. club/dubstep.
Woah, had completely forgotten about this, including that I pre-ordered the 7".
Shackleton. Dark dancefloors.
Despite it sounding like everything I normally like, I just didn’t click with their debut. Enjoying this one a lot more so far.
