2019 New Music

[vulnicuras]

Billie Eilish's album is great!

[CaledonianGonzo]

New single out by my new obsession, deeply inauthentic (Smokey and the) Bandit-esque country trio Midland.

Nudie-suited good guys.

[jyoung]

Happy Billie Day, everyone!

Another one for Eilish, cracking album. Definitely on course for LDR level of success.

Had the opportunity to go to the BBC Introducing 6 Music event last night in Liverpool.

4 great acts but two absolute stand outs

Queen Zee and Red Rum Club  both new to me and both outstanding.

Hoping both make it to the farm this year.

Billie Eilish album is decent, enjoyed it much more than the Sigrid record. 

Anything else out today worth checking out?

Not heard it yet, but the new C Duncan record is out which is probably worth checking out. Last two records have been good.

Show Me The Body have a great new album out today. It's a tad noisier than Billie's.

I haven't got round to them yet but White Denim have a new one out (Can't see it being bad though) and Ty Segall has a live album out which should be amazing judging from the version of Love Fuzz he released from it.

Snapped Ankles playing on Sunday. Looks like a great day.

I remember my first experience with them very well. They were on late during a festival in a small-ish tent and I wandered in because the headliner that was on wasn't for me. Didn't know the guys at all. Left during the third song (which was probably almost half way their set at the time) thinking WTF am I looking at? Really wasn't for me and my bud. Lights from behind, so could hardly make out who was on stage, and it was so damn loud I couldn't understand a word he was saying/singing. Too aggressive, wasn't prepared. 

Maybe they sound differently on record, but hadn't made that connection.

They're not as noisey as they once were. I saw them at Soup Kitchen a few years ago with a mate not really into that sort of thing and he was a bit confused by the whole thing, they only played for an incredibly intense 20 minutes anyway. I can see where you're coming from though. The front man plays with a insanely distorted banjo instead of a guitar, I can respect that level of whats-the-pointery.

They certainly made an impression  Yes, that 'instrument'! Might give them another go on a streaming service or a festival if they happen to be there. With more festivals and gigs under my belt I'm a changed man.

Sage Francis and B.Dolan have teamed up for an album and its decent on first listen, worth a go if you're into hip-hop

As some one said on here earlier, loving the new Flume mixtape, 2 good tunes on their with SOPHIE who i know is fan favorite on here.

Listened once through to the Billie Eilish, thought it was decent enough, will give it a few more spins. Will have to be catching her set this year, barring an awful clash.

Lorde's debut is better than Billie's but damn, the bangers bang.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Definitely enjoying it - just dunno yet if it has a Royals / Video Games - esque  all-timer on it.

Billie Eilish has stunned me, was anticipating it to be good but genuinely think it hits hard. Great debut.

They're both young, female pop artists who've dropped highly anticipated albums within a few weeks of each other so I think 'completely different' is a stretch. 

Its not like I'm comparing the Moody Blues to Beyoncé

So you're both half right

Billie Eilish jumping straight onto the must see list.

[ourkid1984]

I think it's been out for a couple of weeks now but I only discovered it today but the new EP by Casi & the Blind Harpist is a piece of wonder well worth checking out.
