Some cracking albums out so far this year.

Has anyone listened to SOHN - Rennen yet? Popped up on Spotify so I gave it a blast, such a good album. 

It's got a touch of the James Blake's about it, a lot more soulful though. Really well produced melodic album .

New Dirty Projectors LP on 24 February.

I've seen them at Latitude. Are they likely of interest on the Farm? Hope so.

Mega stoked for this new album - love the direction they've taken. They played high up the Park in 2010 so I'd love for them to make a return, although they have no tour dates announced as of yet so maybe it's a no-go entirely

I listened to the previous album a little bit. Nice enough, although it didn't totally blow me away. Might have a gander at this new one if it's good.

Second-listen and... fuck. Of all the albums I've been disappointed about recently, this one hurts the most. Gonna persevere with it because I do like quite a lot of stadium rock, but they shoulda really just titled the thing We've Grown Up, Maybe You Should Too.

Ah man, I haven't had a chance to listen yet but I sure do hope you're wrong/it turns out to be a grower

I'm also disappointed with the new Japandroids album. I liked the first two songs they released from it, the title track particularly, but the rest is just nothing like that at all. Will need a few more listens to actually remember what the other songs were like because barring the one with the weird synth thing they were all so bland I've forgotten.

It'll be timed to coincide with the inauguration.

Yeah I get that. But as your first new music in ages? Seems weird is all.

Unless they aren't using this as their 'comeback' track and will be releasing something else pretty soon after

Probably just a politically charged track that was initially buried among the album tracks but released to coincide with the inauguration, and a more typical single will be on its way shortly. Fwiw I think it's quite good.

    • There is possibly a weak link in the ticket buying system, no matter how clever the technical controls get. I just spent 20 minutes this morning hammering the ‘Buy Tickets’ button while the web page kept telling me there weren’t enough tickets remaining to meet my request. Eventually it changed its mind and let me buy two tickets. Most likely because of failed payments in the queue ahead of me. So - just like it did in the good old F5 days - pig-headed blind persistence can sometimes pay off.   BTW, the tickets were for the Whispering Bob Harris evening in the Albert Hall on 2nd December.
    • All I'm asking for is Rancid 
    • MGK would probably end my interest in this festival completely. 
    • The basement, deafheaven, Mannequin pussy clash is v annoying. Also not sure why pinkpantheress is in the tent, surely going to be ramos. 
    • It's just this:   Search up which orgs are currently in Tufton St, funded by Koch Brothers, Robert Mercer, and Matthew Elliot.   It's moved on from "Vote Leave" and "Leave Means Leave" into the lobbyists against net zero. It's the same funding from the same people in the same place lobbying our media and politicians.
