Hurray For The Riff Raff - The Past Is Still Alive
9th album of folky Americana stuff. Will be lovely
MGMT - Loss of Life
New one from the psychedelic pop guys. All the singles so far have been great so looking forward to digging in.
Job For A Cowboy - Moon Healer
Former MySpace shitty deathcore darlings have evolved over the years in to an excellent cosmic death metal band. Big fan of the current death metal trend of making every album cover look like a da share z0ne meme. FFO: Tomb Mold, Blood Incantation
Mick Mars - The Other Side Of Mars and Ace Frehley - 10,000 Volts
Two potential nominees for stinker of the week here. Two classic rock guitarists from bands who released seminal glam rock albums. Both left those bands on awful terms and had embarrassing public falling outs with the remaining members. Both have now released a new album on the same day. Coincidence or shrewd play for our attention? YOU DECIDE.
The Body And Dis Fig - Orchards Of A Futile Heaven
Noise metal experimentalists latest collaborative album, this time with uhh whoever Dis Fig is. Expect waves of dissonance and ethereal vocals.
Baby In Vain - Afterlife
Danish alt rock
Dis Fig did a fantastic album with The Bug a couple of years ago. Really excited for this
Allie X. Might be good, might be shit. Quite liked some older tracks.
Not thought about JFAC in about 15 years. We used to call them something very infantile when we were 16.
(you have the year wrong in this thread title @JoJoMarty )
Another in the excellent series of Can live albums.
Recorded around Ege Bamyasi/Future Days, so should really hit the spot.
Erick the Architect
Solo album of hip hop from Flatbush Zombies member. I don’t think I know the Zombies but his single came up in my Spotify algorithm somewhere and I really liked it. Looking forward to hearing what else is on there.
Guiltless - Thorns
New doomy / post-metal release on Neurot (Neurosis’ record label).
Obviously it would be a lazy comparison to say that they sound like Neurosis - but they sound quite a lot like Neurosis.
Clown Core
Live album of Kenny G-core death metal from Louis Cole and friends FFO Mr Bungle, John Zorn, Ruins and the like
Continues with a new Bardo Pond album. FFO MBV & Yo La Tengo at their more experimental end.
Bardo Pond - Volume 9
Maya Shenfeld - Under the Sun
The album I’m most looking forward to is this experimental synth/voice album from Berlin based composer Maya Shenfeld. Her last album, 2022’s In Free Fall was really good, and the reviews sound like this is going to be great.
UK Hip Hop/Grime I enjoyed his introspective last one moderately.
Retro synths in a full LP from the creator of hip coffee shop hit ‘What is a Girl to Do’
New release 70s/80s vocal cuts form Ethiopian jazz legend.
Ooh I actually got in early and can contribute this week!
Whitelands - Nightbound eyes are blind to the day
Enjoyed the singles I’ve heard on the radio, pretty nice shoegaze. They have been supporting Slowdive.
Not breaking any boundaries but nice to my ears
