    2025-01-20

    Ela Minus - DIA (2025)

    2025-01-19

    Big bold dancey stuff, I can see why she’s supporting Caribou, and that alone has tempted me towards getting a last minute ticket. Initial standouts: Broken, Onwards, Combat

    Shedfromthebody - Whisper And Wane (2025)

    2025-01-18

    Take the post-rock backing of something like Godspeed or Explosions In The Sky, chuck some Grimes vocals on top, and you’ve got what feels like a very deep pool to dive into and bathe in. Initial standout: Sungazer, Milk, Kenopsia

    The Weather Station - Humanhood (2025)

    2025-01-17

    Need to listen to this again to get a better impression. Initial standout: Irreversible Damage

    Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard - Skinwalker (2024)

    2025-01-16

    An odd set of spoken word dotted around this, and tonally different to what I (very vaguely) remember of them in the Louisiana like 6-7 years ago now. Good for them! Initial standout: Night Of The Skinwalker

    Explosions In The Sky - American Primeval OST (2025)

    2025-01-15

    Always nice to have new EITS, even just a soundtrack. An interestingly wider palette compared to their album work. Initial standout: Memories

    Blossoms - Gary (2024)

    2025-01-14

    Milquetoast landfill indie that is mostly about their mates. Initial standout: Perfect Me

    The Voidz - Like All Before You (2024)

    2025-01-13

    It does feel somewhat tossed off, and yet he does seem to care more about this than The Strokes. Still, a couple good songs. Initial standouts: 7 Horses, Spectral Analysis

    Pharmakon - Maggot Mass (2024)

    2025-01-12

    Nasty, brutish, and oddly compelling. Initial standout: OILED ANIMALS

    Lambrini Girls - Who Let The Dogs Out? (2025)

    2025-01-11

    Vapid, faux profundity with an affected voice. It’ll keep the Idles crowd happy. Initial standout: Love

    Franz Ferdinand - The Human Fear (2025)

    2025-01-10

    Solid if occasionally stolid album 20 years in. Initial standout: Build It Up

    Elias Rønnenfelt - Heavy Glory (2024)

    2025-01-09

    A voice where I can’t tell if I like it or not and won’t be able to for some time. Initial standout: No One Else

    Greg Mendez - First Time/Alone (2024)

    2025-01-08

    Initial standout: Alone

    St Vincent - Todos Nacen Gritando (2024)

    2025-01-07

    I mean, sure. It’s All Born Screaming but she’s singing in Spanish. Initial standout: Tiempos Violentos

    WHY? - The Well I Fell Into (2024)

    2025-01-07

    I remember vaguely being aware of WHY? from an Acaster pre-show mix. I have now actually listened. Initial standout: Later at the Loon

    Dirty Three - Ocean Songs (1998)

    2025-01-06

    Early (comparatively, to what I listen to), Steve Albini-produced post-rock, lovely for reading to on a train. Initial standout: Sea Above, Sky Below

    Girl Scout - Headache (2024)

    2025-01-05

    Swedish power pop in the vein of The Beths (no bad thing). Initial standouts: Headache, I’m So Sorry

    Jack White - No Name (2024)

    2025-01-04

    Surprisingly vital for this stage of Jack White’s career, I can see why the buzz about the cramped gigs last year was what it was. Initial standouts: Bless Yourself, What’s The Rumpus?

    The Ophelias - Ribbon (2024)

    2025-01-03

    Initial standout: Black Ribbon

    Cindy - Swan Lake (2024)

    2025-01-02

    Initial standout: The Birds in Birmingham Park

    Anna Ferrer - Parenostic (2024)

    2025-01-01

    Odd, almost Bon Iver-ian folky/autotune from Menorca. Initial standouts: Heu and M’agrada s’espigolar
