10 Albums to Look for In 2018

#cough #number 8

New one from MBV will be on its way at some point...

 

[redsquirrel]

New albums by First Aid Kit and Xylouris White are out on the 19th, and Stick in the Wheel and Calexico have albums out the week after, and then Alela Diana on the 9th Feb.

At one time I'd have been excited by the Calexico but there last few have been pretty mediocre, the 2nd FAK album was disappointing but maybe this will live up to the first.

No, just been watching his stuff on YouTube - so impressive, especially for such a young kid.

 

[rutabowa]

This was the tune I first saw him in... they are all fairly impressive in it, as far as crazy speed goes

Thanks for the notification. That's the first I heard of it.

On my phone now so searching out links is hard, but there's a series of articles on pitchfork, I think, trailing it over the last year or so.

Warmduscher new album sounding GREAT The Quietus | News | LISTEN: Warmduscher Single Big Wilma

The new Ed Schrader's Music Beat album might also be good, haven't quite worked it out from this track yet: Ed Schrader’s Music Beat Shares Dan Deacon-Produced New Song and Video “Dunce”

 

[Buddy Bradley]

New Corrosion of Conformity record just out - not bad.

 

[rutabowa]

Subaru Nights by Insecure Men was one of my favourite pop music tracks of last year, so I reckon their debut album will be great. cover is pretty sick too

 

[billy_bob]

Cheating a bit, this was released last year, but I can only see one poster mentioning it on here (flypanam ) and it really deserves more fans.

Mario Batkovic, self-titled debut album.

 

[flypanam]

It’s something special. Never thought an accordion could sound like that.

 

[redsquirrel]

New Josh T. Pearson album out in April

 

[billy_bob]

Warmduscher new album sounding GREAT The Quietus | News | LISTEN: Warmduscher Single Big Wilma

Never heard of them before but I like it a lot.

 

[billy_bob]

New Cavern of Anti-Matter due out in March.

The Quietus | News | LISTEN: New Cavern Of Anti-Matter

It's alright, but they're one of those bands whose name suggests like they'll sound much louder and more head-bleeding than they do.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

New tUnE-yArDs album just out:

[Buddy Bradley]

Good, isn't it - I hadn't heard of her before.

The new one by The Go! Team is pretty good too, if you like that sort of thing.

 

[mwgdrwg]

New tUnE-yArDs album just out:

Finally, after 23 posts, a recommended album that has been released in 2018!

Cheers, will give it a spin (stream?) now!

 

[mwgdrwg]

The Go! Team have an album out.

 

[billy_bob]

Has anyone mentioned the Go! Team have an album out?

 

[Spandex]

Gwenno has a new album Le Kov out in March.

Her Welsh language psych-pop sci-fi concept album from a couple of years ago still gets regular plays round my house. This time she's singing entirely in Cornish. Here's the single:

Tir Ha Mor

I like it
