I've only listened to it once so far, and the bits where it is good are very good. Listening to it in chunks probably didn't help, next time I'll try and play it through in one go. Would love them to return to Pilton. Completely passed my by in 2013 (I don't think I knew a great deal about them then), but I'm sure if they played again they'd get a good slot on a decent stage. Perhaps even Glade..?

Was actually thinking they'd be at home on The Glade, great minds my man. Can also see them fitting in on the Leftfield's music bill, if Hell Stage survives to next year they'd do very well there, or even the John Peel stage seeing as the man himself actually gave them their first leg-up in their early days.

New Sleaford Mods EP is top, not likely to convert anyone but I Can Tell is up there with the best of theirs.

[Divein]

The new Jagwar Ma album is out today.  Not listened to it it yet but the singles have been good as is what I've heard live. 

[priest17]

That The Lemon Twigs album went above and beyond my expectations, thoroughly enjoyed it. Very McCartney at points, very cool throughout, was intrigued after hearing a couple of songs last week but I'm hoping they'll be at the farm now for sure.

[Quark]

Haven't managed to find a stream of the new one yet but their first album What We Know is on youtube.  Pretty good stuff I have to say, could see them getting a slot in the Park?

[russycarps]

I've been offered a freebie to see a band called blaenavon tonight. Anyone know if they are any good? I've never heard of them. 

 

[Quark]

They ring a bell but can't for the bloody life of me remember why Russy.  That's going to annoy me for days!

On another note, anyone come across the new Springtime Carnivore album?  Not exactly ground breaking but worth a listen

Yeah I saw them in Williams Green this year. Didn't plan on seeing them (as I'd never heard of them) but was in Williams Green for a coffee and they caught my ear so I wandered in.

Enjoyed them. Heavier end of indie sort of thing, quite loud. A lot of the songs break down into heavy guitar freak out type stuff. Stage dive from the singer/guitarist at the end too. They seem to have a small core following of people who really know their stuff.

Now I bloody remember!  Saw them at a small fest in Guildford in September.  Yeah they were pretty good, worth a watch if you've got a ticket Russy

I just googled them, they certainly look like c**ts but I'll be keeping an open mind!

Just had Jagwar Ma, Kings of Leon and Grouplove delivered.

started on Jagwar Ma, only got to track 5 but compelled to put a note on here already - excellent stuff

Like the sound of this. A bit rosesy Debut ep out today

Actually it looks like there's a few previous ep's when I've looked further online. Debut physical music out today. 

Sounds really good. Have you checked out any of The Lucid Dream's stuff? They're kinda similar baggy stuff and had a really good album last year - new one out last month too but I've not got round to it yet.

[Jamesthedrake]

Not an album, but a new artist that might be ones to watch are Idles. Heard them on 6 Music a few weeks back, and I'm pretty impressed - though they might not be for everyone. Seem to be following in the footsteps of bands like Slaves and Drenge, so if you're bored of that give them a miss. Can definitely see these guys in the Williams Green or BBC Introducing tent come next year:

 

[EighteenSixty7]

Dusky out today, The Game's new album (not big on him but the production is stunning). Had my first spin of Solange's album last night, so smooth, I'll end up buying that. NxWorres (Anderson .Paak & Knxwledge) has leaked. Jagwar Ma and I might even check out the Two Door Cinema Club album.

What a time to be alive.

[nikkic]

There's so much good new music out at the moment, it's becoming increasingly difficult to keep up!

They were incredibly good fun at The Park this year.  Listening now.

[mjsell]

certainly enjoying Jagwar Ma's new one slightly more than King of Leon's. Although that ones not as bad as I feared - it has a certain peace to it (like they aren't over trying anymore) 

just getting on a 2 hour train journey, will hopefully get through a few other new ones people have mentioned on here

after a few listens i don't think it's quite as good as their first album (which i thought was stellar from start to finish) but i'm still enjoying it a lot

 

Kings of Leon's new album isn't nearly as shite as i expected it to be. it's nothing groundbreaking, and exactly what you'd expect really, but i actually quite enjoyed listening to it

I don't like the one they're playing recently on 6music at all. They sound like baggy revivalists for those that missed it the first time.
