New tUnE-yArDs album just out:

Really like the track they're pushing on R6- 'Look at your hands'.

 

[ouchmonkey]

heard a track on 6 music the other day and it was ok
but I can never forgive tuneyards for the typographical assault of the alternating cases in the logo/name
the PRML SCRM etc skipping of vowels I could about cope with
but this? seriously though fuck off

Crikey, had no idea they were still around. What next, Consolidated?

THIS IS THE SHIT!
Midnight Mines - 20.5.17 ← Cafe OTO

not sure it counts as a album, but it was released today from a live set done last year.

 

[May Kasahara]

New Stick In The Wheel album is out and it is fantastic

 

[rutabowa]

savage hardcore:

 

[moonsi til]

I’m being soothed by Pete Fij & Terry Bickers. Went to see them without listening to their current music. Bought an album at the gig but it’s not the latest one which I shall buy next. One I bought was described as ‘sunshine with showers’.

The London Dirthole Company "Summarine 8.1". full disclosure i played guitar on it... it is really good though... also it doesn't seem to be available to buy or even listen to anywhere yet though it's been out a few weeks, so you will have to make do with listening to this one track i ripped off it: PUB QUIZ CUNTS - Clyp

 

[Indeliblelink]

This is rather lovely - Hampshire & Foat - The Honeybear - ambient folk concept album based on a fictional children's book.

 

[Dragnet]

Objectified - Talent: Only played this one all the way through once so far, so probably too early to give a more in-depth opinion on it; quite pleasing in a vaguely County Teasers--esque way.

Goat Girl have their debut coming out on Rough Trade in April. Keen to hear that one.

It's OK, but the guitar's shit.

I'm just kidding - that's pretty great. Excellent track title, too.

Quite liking this, the debut album by London post-punks Shame:

 

[rutabowa]

the more tracks that come out from this new Ed Schrader's Music Beat album the more it looks like it is going to be awesome

 

[sim667]

Not new, but just discovered this album, guy's wicked.

Holy shit they are both brilliant, Make Me Feel is obviously her Prince tribute, it's awesome. Paging Cheesypoof

Janelle Monae is more than just Prince-inspired.

She was his latest protege and he was helping her on this album when he died.

Really liking the new Screaming Females album:

 

[rutabowa]

this new Ocean Wisdom album sounds pretty sick.... he is definitely damned fast

 

[Spandex]

Ladytron are releasing a new album later in the year - their first since 2011. They're working with Jim Abbiss on it, who produced their The Witching Hour album in 2005.

First single is here: The Animals. It's good, if not their best.

They're funding the album through Pledge music (I understand they had some label woes in the 00s) and have got 35% of the funding in place after 2 days. They were - of course - the best band of the 00s, so I'm excited about it.

 

[Threshers_Flail]

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

I've had this on repeat this week, kinda seedy British pop. It's brill.

Id be surprised if there is a better pop album this year. I knew he had it in him!
