Really like this from The Murder Capital - moody, gloomy, spacious Irish indie rock.

New one from Irish post-punks The Murder Capital out today
I really liked their first album, When I Have Fears (2019), and on first listen this one is sounding pretty good too.

I've got my copy but not listened to it yet because my ancient CD player has finally given up the ghost. Two out of her last three albums were great though.

The Lankum album is mint. I didn't make it far into the Liturgy album - not for me!
This is the best heavy album I've heard this year - collab between doomsters Primitive Man and grindcorers Full of Hell. Absolutely CRUSHING....
Yea the Liturgy album is as challenging as it gets. I got three tracks in but really have to be in the right mood with an empty house.
I've already played the whole thing about six times but not actually listened to much because it somehow sounds the same as the background noise in my brain

I listened to this yesterday and wasn't that fussed. I really liked his last album and thought this wasn't a patch on it - but I listened again today and enjoyed it much more....

A crazy bulbous punchbag of sound
I had some stuff to do this morning but then I hit play on this and 4 tracks in it's so relentlessly excellent I seem unable to tear myself away, so it looks like I'll have to delay doing it. Sooooooo good

10,000 gecs came out last week I think - big beats and fuzzy production, reminds me of the Sleigh Bells debut with a bit of 21 Pilots and ska-punk thrown in:

Listening now and this is really fun. Also good work for getting it at the top of the page so I kept seeing this post every time I read the most recent page - I scrolled past this without clicking about five times but have got around to it now, and glad I did.

Anyone else feel like this year has been much better than 2022 so far? I think by the end of March last year I only had 1-2 albums I had really liked a lot, but this year there are 12 in the pile already!

That EP is great - thanks for sharing...
Quite the opposite for me. I'm not finding much to get excited about so far this year. Different tastes, obvs, but last year I was completely overwhelmed with good finds in the first half of the year.
ETA: That's sounds a bit gloomy. I've found some good stuff - it hasn't been a disaster- but nothing to shout about.
