i have faith it'll be good, although I'm tempted to call it a snooze fest if this is the lead single. 

I suppose it's unlikely to be the lead single as chances are they wouldn't steal the thunder of the start of the new album campaign by sitting on Zoom and knocking it out for the world to see some time before.

Adam did preview some more songs on a live stream a few months back. They sounded more like Lost in the Dream/A Deeper Understanding type tracks if that's more what you're in to.

Boy pablo released an album on Friday which completely passed me by. But it is actually doing very well perking me up on my commute.

I'm enjoying it a lot, knowing not to expect anything groundbreaking it's a good easy listen, production is really nice as well

Joe And The Shitboys released their debut album the other day, great if you're after some catchy vegan punk but only have 10 minutes spare

New Xenia Rubinos, its cool. Still no word on a new album

I prefer the term 'Refined'

How was this Queen not on the 2020 lineup?
 

 

[Baggins7]

Missed this one on Friday but new from Hot Chip and Jarvis Cocker, feels like an unlikely collaboration but I like it.

Been catching up a bit, new This Is The Kit album is lovely stuff.

Agreed, just been listening. 
 

Awful album cover though.

It does have a touch of the GCSE art project about it

we need to let Osees back on tour, Dwyer clearly has too much hands on his time at this point. This is an avant garde remix of stuff from the last couple of albums as far as I can make out, I actually quite liking it but 3 albums in 4 months is pushing it ahah. The video is well worth a watch.

Edit: well I guess the Bent Arcana album takes that up to 4 albums in 5 months for him.

Edit2: thinking about it the Damaged Bug one got officially released in July after RSD complications so he's on 5 in 6 months. Not counting the Live album they just put out from the Levitation session they did in August.

Could just be because the lineup only had 60 out of 1000+ names. Seems to be the kind of act that wouldn't always make the first poster.

This must be what being a Buckethead fan is like.

I got a signed copy which came with 2 covers (assume she just got sent a bunch of covers to sign and the shop couldn't be arsed to swap them out) but as a result this comment made me laugh!!

The Osees tour put back to May now, as you probably know. Still playing Protean Threat which is ace.

Christmas isn't cancelled

Yumi Zouma have released an alternative versions album of Truth or Consequences today.  Been a while since I listened to the original release so can't tell you just how alternative it is yet, but sounding good on first listen.

@circus92 @lessthanwill1 @Mattymooz might be of interest.

New DZ Deathrays single, new album in July. It's a lot rounder than their old stuff but so was their last album and that was alright. It's a half decent mosher tune by any means.

Great - thanks for this. Would have passed me by.
It sounded good on listen of the first few tracks, but it did make me go back and listen to the original again after a few months off the radar. I’d forgotten what an album it is! Certainly top 10 (probably top 5) of the year for me. It also made me long for the summertime and sunshine again though!

Got a bandcamp alert on them this morning, otherwise I'd have completely missed it as well.  It's one of the ones from my halfway Top 20 list that'll still be in the reckoning come year end. Know what you mean as well, lovely dreamy summer vibes 😭

Think it's been said elsewhere on here that she's not exactly re-inventing the wheel, but I'm really enjoying beabadoobee's album. 

I know trends are cyclical and all that so it was bound to happen, but there's a real resurgence in acts with a sound that would have slotted in nicely to the local indie club in the mid to late 90s at the moment. Not carbon copies or tribute acts, but clearly influenced by. And I love it.
