Heavenly (1-sided clear & emerald green cloudy vinyl 12" + insert limited to 100 copies)
Cat: SDR 061V3. Rel: 18 Nov 24
Review: Texan shoegaze arrivistes, Glare, share 'Heavenly'; the band's first proper EP-length release, it hotly follows their two drumroller single releases 'Into You' and 'Void In Blue', both released earlier in the year (yet they do not feature here). The EP hears Heavenly hone the best qualities of their sound so far, delivering a fiver of cataleptic overloads, and bottling a normally immiscible range of emotions - "love, loneliness, and anger" - where only the sonic medium of heavy-set rock gushes, and the act of averting one's gaze to the trodden, spirit-sodden floor, can succeed in integrating them. The EP's momentous shreds and viscid vocals are at times too much to muster for us sensitive types; we note the contrast of 'Bloom', 'Floating', 'Soft', 'Heavenly' with the closer 'Ghastly', a shocking tonal shift compared to the first four songs, its amped discordancy and snarled pickup grrs making it the standout of the bunch, yet also the most horrific; a well and truly drowned sorrow.

Review: Few tracks capture the icy allure of early 80s electronic experimentation quite like this underground classic. Originally released in 1981, this Swiss post-punk/coldwave classic has transcended its era, becoming a cult favorite across underground scenes and DJ sets of various genres. Now reissued on limited blue vinyl, its influence remains undeniable. 'Eisbaer' is a track that bridges stark, minimalist electronics with the raw energy of post-punk. The hypnotic bassline and cold, robotic drum programming lay a foundation for jagged guitar stabs and eerie synth flourishes, creating an urgent, mechanical pulse. The disaffected, almost mantra-like vocalsideclaring "Ich mochte ein Eisbar sein" ("I want to be a polar bear")iheighten its existential detachment. Echoes of Throbbing Gristle's industrial edge and Cabaret Voltaire's abstract electronics blend seamlessly with the emerging synth-pop movement, helping to push new wave into more danceable, electronic territory. Side B's 'Film 2' takes a more abrasive approach, a pounding, near-industrial instrumental that pulses with motorik intensity. 'Ich Lieb Sie' is more restrained but equally unsettling, its sparse arrangement and ghostly atmosphere reinforcing Grauzone's unique ability to evoke emotion through minimalism. Timeless and still chillingly modern, this reissue ensures that Eisbar and its B-sides continue to inspire. A crucial document of coldwave's evolution, reaffirming why this track remains a DJ favourite decades later.

Let All That We Imagine Be The Light (limited 'pearl sunrise' vinyl LP (indie exclusive))
Cat: 964145 491. Rel: 29 May 25
Review: Led by Edinburgh-born Los Angeles-based 90s superstar Shirley Manson, Garbage have emerged from dark, troubling times to present a new album. The follow up to 2021's No God No Masters was originally intended for release in 2023, but got put back, reportedly due to Manson's surgeries, writer's block and the death of her pet dog. Those who've kept patient, however, are in for a treat: it's a life-affirming record that stands tall in the transatlantic group's storied oeuvre. Ever the sharp critical thinker, the lyrics to lead single 'There's No Future In Optimism' remind us to grab life by the horns and feel unburned by darkness for a moment - it's a message we need from our popstars and it's a nice respite from the cranky punk music that's saturated our radio waves over the past few years.

Let All That We Imagine Be The Light (neon orange vinyl LP)
Cat: 964145 501. Rel: 29 May 25
Review: This is the first album in four years from Scot-fronted Los Angeles band Garbage and their eighth studio album total. The previous album, No Gods No Masters, delved into some heavy sociopolitical themes, which were given a lot of attention because it came out amid Covid. With this album, as the title gives away, there is a shift towards more positive thinking, even if some seriousness remains. The single 'There's No Future In Optimism' reminds us to grab life by the horns and feel unburned by darkness for a moment - Shirley Manson clearly remembering the joy of pop and the hope it can bring, despite geopolitical uncertainties. Sonically, they've crafted very powerful electronica-tinged rock, with a brilliant emphasis on rhythm, the joys of a well constructed beat and some gritty bass.

Review: Indiana singer-songwritern Lisa Germano's 1994 moody dark indie rock masterpiece has been remastered at Abbey Road Studios in London. This expanded edition - released as part of 4AD's Record Store Day spread - includes 'The Mirror Is Gone' and the five-track EP 'Inconsiderate Bitch', making it a bumper version of one of the key albums of the 90s. Germano's voice is a thing of wonder with lyrics that cut through the noise. The sonics underpinning her voice are often sparse and atmospheric, allowing us listeners to really feel the intimacy of feeling. It's no wonder the likes of Eels, Bowie and Iggy Pop called her in to guest on their records.

Something To Write Home About (25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition) (gatefold transluscent silver marbled vinyl 2xLP + 28-page booklet + MP3 download code in spot-varnished sleeve)
Cat: PRC 497LPC. Rel: 19 Sep 24
Review: If there was a ever a genre of music that made you feel old through its own ageing process, it's pop-punk and emo. The soundtrack to a 1001 American coming of age movies in the 1990s and, to a lesser extent, the noughties, the high energy, high-emotional quality that runs through these tunes can't help but cast the mind back to what now feels like a more innocent time. But, as the songs made clear, we were actually wrought with complicated self-doubt and uncertainty. 1999 was a peak year for this, with Blink 182, Sum 41 and Avril Lavigne vying for chart positions in the UK alongside dominant trance and dance beats. The Get Up Kids were less visible in Britain, but among the noise this Kansas city crew dropped Something To Write Home About. Achieving significant acclaim Stateside, the record would go on to influence the birth of Fall Out Boy, the Wonder Years, and Taking Back Sunday, among others.

Review: Formed in the peak pandemic year of 2020, GIFT emerged during a challenging time but quickly found their sound as they blended early shoegaze, 90s alternative rock and modern pop.

Shinbangumi ("sunray" orange & white splattered vinyl LP + "pop-out building" insert)
Cat: GI 443LPC1. Rel: 12 Sep 24
Review: Step inside the world of Ginger Root with Shinbangdumi, Cameron Lew's third LP and Ghostly International debut. A multi-instrumentalist, producer, songwriter, and visual artist from Southern California, Lew has crafted his unique blend of handmade yet polished synth-pop, alt-disco, boogie and soul since 2017. Drawing inspiration from 1970s and '80s music, particularly Japanese City Pop and its Western counterparts, Lew creates a sound that is singular and modern. Shinbangumi translates to "a new season of a show" and reflects Lew's personal and artistic evolution. The album's track arrangement, influenced by feedback from his live band and collaborator David Gutel, is designed to take listeners on an exhilarating journey, starting with the infectious 'No Problems' and its catchy basslines and guitar riffs. 'Better Than Monday' transitions from lo-fi to hi-fi splendor, humorously addressing the universal dread of Mondays. The album balances referential and refreshing elements, with tracks like 'There Was A Time' and 'All Night' showcasing Lew's melodic strength. 'Only You' delivers a true City Pop anthem, while "Giddy Up" channels The B-52s and Devo. 'Kaze' evokes the Tin Pan Alley sound of Harry Hosono, recorded in a Tokyo karaoke bar. 'Show 10' stands as the album's spiritual heart, reminding Lew of his commitment to delivering his best to fans. With Shinbangdumi, Ginger Root presents a wealth of nostalgia and innovation with their version of synthpop.

Review: Shinbangumi is the third LP from multi-instrumentalist Lew, marks a significant evolution for the Southern California artist Ginger Root. Seamlessly blending 70s and 80s influences like Japanese City Pop, Philly Soul, and French Pop, Lew's sound is a sophisticated mix of synth-pop, alt-disco, boogie, and soul. Shinbangumi stands out not only for its musical strength but also for its conceptual narrative, continuing from the 2022 EP Nisemono. Tracks like 'No Problems' and 'Better Than Monday' exhibit Lew's knack for combining catchy melodies with clever production. 'There Was A Time' and 'All Night' highlight his ability to craft both introspective and dance-worthy tunes. 'Only You' delves into true City Pop, while 'Giddy Up' channels the quirky energy of The B-52s and Devo. 'Kaze,' recorded in Tokyo, adds a unique texture inspired by Yellow Magic Orchestra's Harry Hosono. Lew's dedication to his craft and his fans is more than evident here.

Hit & Run: Revisited (Record Store Day RSD 2025) (limired red vinyl LP)
Cat: 502173 2376831. Rel: 08 May 25
Review: Originally released in 1981 via Bronze Records, Hit & Run would serve as the sophomore full-length from London's Girlschool. Reaching No. 5 in the UK Albums Chart with the title-track charting at No. 32 in the UK singles, the album was the band's biggest success, even landing them an obligatory mime performance on Top Of the Pops. Returning to London's Jackson's Studios to work with producer Vic Maile, who handled desk duties on their 1980 debut Demolition, the project saw the group ramp up their speed and melody, ultimately cementing their place as somewhat retrospectively overlooked pioneers of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWBHM). Reissued or rather "revisited" for Record Store Day 2025, this lush, limited red wax pressing features cuts such as the iconic opening banger 'C'mon Let's Go', which appeared in the Gemini Award winning 2005 documentary Metal: A Headbanger's Journey, as well as their much adored rendition of ZZ Top's 'Tush'.

Review: Seattle-raised, New York-based singer and pianist Eliana Glass releases one of the most arresting debuts of the year, finding her own nuanced style after years training as a jazz vocalist and being in steeped in records by Nina Simone. Glass' love of more indie influences, such the ethereal Elizabeth Fraser of the Cocteau Twins means she fuses technical excellence with a more emotional led timbre that, in turn, brings you closer to her soul. 'On The Way Down' is a great place to start as it's a stunning marriage of piano and vocal but when she just plays piano the hairs stand on the back of your neck, too. Check out 'Song for Emahoy' and try not to cry.

Review: The best kept secret in shoegaze? Probably depends on how many other secrets you know about and what they are. Either way, Gleemer are the almost-stadium sized band half the crowd are blown away by because they've never heard of before, and the other half are absolutely obsessed with and have been since they first encountered the group. End of the Nail is quintessential Gleemer business, and wholly indicative of why people love them so much. Combining elements of grunge and garage, skate and 'adult emo' into this gnarly, taught and rhythmic guitar soup, it's as much about looking upwards into the great beyond with contemplative chords and choruses as it is staring down at the pavement and wondering where from there. Dreamy and muscular at the same time.

Review: This underground post-rock classic is now available on double vinyl for the first time since 1993, with a fresh transfer by Frank Arkwright at Abbey Road from the original masters. The God Machine, formed in 1990, released two albums that helped shape the post-rock and post-metal scenes. Despite glowing reviews and live shows supporting the likes of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and My Bloody Valentine, they never gained wide recognition, often falling between indie and rock circles. Championing the band, BBC Radio 1's John Peel invited them for sessions in 1992 and 1993, cementing their place in underground music history.

Miracle Music (limited 'forest night' dark green vinyl LP (indie exclusive))
Cat: TRR 434LPC1. Rel: 15 May 25
Review: Recorded at Portland's Type Foundry studio i where American instrumental experimental rockers Grails' earliest records were born i Miracle Music is the band's 12th long player and weaves acoustic and electric guitars, synths, brass, woodwinds, percussion and samples into an expansive, cinematic tapestry. Drawing from early industrial textures, classical elegance and psychedelic ambiance, the album crafts a heavy yet ethereal mood. Tracks like 'Silver Bells' pulse with vintage electro urgency, while others invoke a sense of reflection and grandeur. This balance of boundary-pushing intensity and airy melodicism reflects Grails' quarter-century commitment to reinvention. As both a nod to their origins and a bold step forward, Miracle Music stands as one of Grails' most personal and profound releases i a key to their ability to transform eclectic influences into something singular and deeply moving.

The Art Of The Lie (gatefold pale pink vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: BELLA 1594VX. Rel: 13 Jun 24
Review: Lying is rather like borrowing money from an alternate reality. The liars don't exist in it and yet they bank on its invented energy. American singer-songwriter and former Czars frontman John Grant knows this all too well, not least the degree to which the lie is indelibly riven across every facet of modern society; his latest album takes its title after the concept and, though its message is a bitter pill, it's also packed with humour and bombast, stylistically straddling everything from electro-pop to alt-indie in a whirlwind of named (and in the lattermost case, featured) influences from the Art Of Noise to Laurie Anderson to Vangelis to (the album's producer) Ivor Guest. A politically sprawling project spanning many contemporary gripes, The Art Of The Lie is an extreme effort at sublimating the frustration of the now.

Kid Krow: Decomposed (5th Anniversary Edition) (black & white splattered vinyl LP + inserts)
Cat: 781192 3. Rel: 12 Jun 25
Review: Conan Gray revisits the corvine world of his 2020 debut, with three new bonuses as well as new cover art hand-drawn by Gray himself. Among them is 'Bed Rest', a previously unreleased song written during the original album sessions: Gray describes it as a time capsulate presciently mirroring his present state of mind, five years on. Then there're the two live versions: 'Heather (Lost Verse Version)' and 'The Cut That Always Bleeds', both of which provide subtle indication of the upward trajectory, though its maximal vintage pop stylings are kept intact . Kid Krow originally marked Gray's shift from bedroom pop phenom to breakout singer-songwriter; now the expanded edition lands beside a digital release, with physical preorders closing the loop on the very record that launched his career into orbit.

Review: If you're over the age of 30 it's probably quite alarming to think David Gray's monumental smash hit single 'Babylon' is now almost a quarter century old. A track that appeared everywhere, from TV ads to films to the radio for the next 25 years or so, it's the sort of song that artists can find it incredibly hard to come back from. Career defining, but also limiting, its enormous success melding with the very identity of the person who made it. Dear Life, Gray's 13th studio album and his first since 2021's Skellig, proves how unfair that familiar pattern can be. Deft songwriting and first class musicianship abound, although the record is unlikely to win any new disciples - this is very much Gray doing Gray the right way, a soft rock-pop-jazz-tronica workout that's easy to get along with, and get a little lost in - it's going to be just what the therapist ordered for those already converted.

Review: Since releasing her much admired debut album 19 Masters in 2022 - an impossible to pigeonhole affair that saw the Canadian-Japanese bassist-turned-solo artist explore her abstract and experimental influences - Saya Gray has kept fans content via a series of low-key (but undeniably interesting) EPs. Here she finally delivers full-length number two, the simply titled Saya, whose genesis can be traced back to a solo trip across Japan accompanied by her acoustic guitar. Musically, it is rooted in folk - bluesy finger-picking motifs, strummed chords and her sweet vocals are an almost ever-present - but it's like no folk album you'll have heard before, with Gray throwing in everything from Tricky style moody trip-hop beats, haunting pedal steel, dark electronics and nods to country, Americana, r&b and atmospheric electronica.

20 Years Of American Idiot (Blu-ray2 - BBC live)
Review: Say what you will about Green Day's career resurgence record but 2004's American Idiot slaps far more than any hater will have you remember. While many still bemoan the band's shying away from the slacker college rock of 2000's Warning, it's impossible to deny the massive staying power that came from the ludicrous hit singles of the title-track as well as 'Boulevard Of Broken Dreams', 'Holiday' and even the nine minute opus 'Jesus Of Suburbia'. Leaning further into concept and theatricality than ever before while essentially serving as the torch bearer album that saw Green Day be passed from Generation X to the millennials of the 21st century, it's easy to understand why American Idiot has become a victim of its own success in the two decades since release, but that doesn't excuse the selective amnesia for how potent of a record it truly was upon arrival and just how prevalent Green Day became in the cultural rock music zeitgeist for an entirely new generation of anxious kids. This 20th anniversary expanded edition arrives in a 4xCD box set complete with a bonus 2xBlu-ray.

Homecoming: Death Of St Jimmy/East 12th St/Nobody Likes You/Rock & Roll Girlfriend/We're Coming Home Again
Review: American Idiot marked a pivotal moment in Green Day's career, propelling them to new heights both commercially and creatively. The album, released in 2004, combines punk energy with a bold narrative, delivering a politically charged rock opera that resonated with a generation. Its mix of rebellious spirit and introspective lyrics touched on themes of disillusionment, suburban angst, and the search for identity. Tracks like the explosive title song and 'Holiday' channel raw defiance, while 'Boulevard of Broken Dreams' and 'Wake Me Up When September Ends' showcase the band's ability to craft emotional ballads with wide appeal. The ambitious multi-part suites 'Jesus of Suburbia' and 'Homecoming' are daring, theatrical pieces that added depth to the album's story arc. Billie Joe Armstrong's sharp songwriting and the band's tight, dynamic sound made American Idiot a modern classic. Its balance of punk rebellion and mainstream accessibility cemented Green Day's place as one of the defining rock bands of the 2000s.

Review: This is Guided By Voices' 41st(!) album. And you rightfully may ask how do you go about keeping a band together for that long? GBV thankfully have a solution to that and it involves leader Robert Pollard being the sole constant member. Nevertheless, this album features the longest-lasting lineup of GBV ever (Robert Pollard, Doug Gillard, Kevin March, Mark Shue and Bobby Bare Jr) and they're on invigorating form, guided by some righteous principals. "I wanted to get a little more sonic diversity for this album," says Pollard, "So I asked each member of the band to record all the instruments for one song and I did three songs myself. For the rest of the songs, we used a lot of different approaches to the recording of both the instruments and the vocals." Pollard adds, "I wanted to create, hopefully, an experience, kind of a wild ride, where the listener would want to hear it multiple times in order to grasp all the sections and fields of sound to discover something new with each listen." Anthemic, timeless and completely worthy of repeat listens, this tireless indie rock group have audibly hit their brief.

Review: Guided By Voices are nothing if not prolific songwriters. This is the band's 41st album and 18th in 10 years. It's refreshing to see this maverick group defy the norms set by the record industry in terms of staggering releases to benefit sales and just go for it. Band leader Robert Pollard is the sole constant member having had many line-up changes over the years, but he has steadied the ship somewhat as the current serving musicians are the longest running in the band's history. They've now made 17 albums since 2017. Where this album differs is it offers more sonic diversity whilst maintaining their unmistakable anthemic character. "I wanted to create, hopefully, an experience, kind of a wild ride, where the listener would want to hear it multiple times in order to grasp all the sections and fields of sound to discover something new with each listen," says Pollard. "I trimmed down the songs so that there wasn't a lot of repetition, so you get a lot of sections that happen only once or twice." A punk sentiment - again disregarding norms - where they're sounding all the more invigorated for it.

Digressions aside, much as we love the introduction to their fresh ideas and work, few things come close to revisiting their finest hours when you've not heard them in years. Originally arriving in 1996, one of two full length releases that year, the other being Under the Bushes Under the Stairs, Tonics & Chasers is every bit as rousing and life-affirming as these guys get, and from the word go, with the gritty lo-fi sensibilities and distortion of 'Satellite'. Similarly leftfield tones abound on 'My Thoughts Are A Gas', to name just one more, while the likes of 'Wingtip Repair' are equally beguiling but in a different (curious piano) kind of way. In contrast, fare such as 'At The Farms' could almost pass for the work of a mainstream rock band. Then you listen closer.

Tonics & Twisted Chasers (reissue) (limited translucent orange vinyl LP + insert (indie exclusive))
Cat: SV 204X. Rel: 01 Oct 24
Review: Tonics & Twisted Chasers emerged in 1996 as a surprise release, marking a distinctive entry in Guided by Voices' prolific catalogue. Initially available as a mail-order only, vinyl-only album, its crude black-and-white sleeve reflected the band's DIY roots. This album, a collaboration between Robert Pollard and Tobin Sprout, deviates from the polished approach of Under the Bushes Under the Stars. It embraces lo-fi aesthetics, characterised by ultra-short tracks and raw creativity. Sprout's eclectic backing music, often featuring a drum machine, meshes with Pollard's stream-of-consciousness lyrics, resulting in a collection of nineteen songs, most under two minutes. Tonics & Twisted Chasers stands out for its experimental spirit and brevity, reminiscent of child-like creativity. Tracks like '158 Years of Beautiful Sex' and 'Look, It's Baseball' exude a spontaneous, unfiltered charm. Despite the album's modest presentation, it is filled with unique gems like the melancholic 'Is She Ever?' and the energetic 'Wingtip Repair'. The band's ability to fuse lo-fi production with profound musicality is elite. Tonics & Twisted Chasers is a hidden treasure, embodying the unrestrained and playful essence of Guided by Voices.

Margo GURYAN / VARIOUS
Like Someone I Know: A Celebration Of Margo Guryan (Loser Edition) (gatefold red vinyl LP + stickers)
Cat: SP 1644X. Rel: 07 Nov 24
Review: Like Someone I Know features reinterpretations of Margo Guryan's timeless songs by a diverse lineup of artists, including TOPS, Clairo, Empress Of, and Margo Price. Guryan, a talented singer-songwriter and pianist, released her only album, Take a Picture, in 1968, which, despite initial obscurity, has become a cornerstone of the sunshine-pop genre. Her compositions reflect a sophisticated understanding of love and uncertainty, showcasing a delicate yet powerful songwriting style. Guryan's artistry gained renewed recognition in recent years, particularly after her haunting track 'Why Do I Cry' went viral on TikTok shortly before her passing in 2021. This tribute album celebrates her influence, allowing modern musicians to explore her work while maintaining the essence of her original sound. Tracks like McDoom's atmospheric take on 'Thoughts' and Frankie Cosmos' playful rendition of 'Take a Picture' highlight Guryan's remarkable craftsmanship and emotional depth. By donating a portion of proceeds to affordable reproductive health services, this compilation not only honours Guryan's legacy but also reaffirms the lasting impact of her music, proving that her work continues to resonate across generations.

As Seen On TV (remastered) (3xCD)
Cat: EARS 197CD. Rel: 27 Feb 25
Review: Any aspiring rocker worth their salt in Australia is likely familiar with Steve Kilbey from his work being the lead singer of 'Under The Milky Way' hitmakers The Church. Here he combines with The Go-Between' Grant McLennan to make the great supergroup Jack Frost. The collection includes a remastering and reissue of their two studio albums: The Snow Job (1995) and the self-titled debut (1991) - plus bonus material. It's stacked with classics, but 'Birdowner', which evokes Morrison Hotel-era Jim Morrion, is a huge standout. As is Civil War Lament', but for different reasons: this goes into acoustic psych-folk territory, leaning towards some Pink Floyd styles. Elsewhere, 'Trapeze Boy' conveys memories of listening to Comet Gain, who may well have been influenced by the underrated, masterful Jack Frost.

As Seen On TV (remastered) (gatefold 3xLP)
Cat: EARS 197LP. Rel: 20 Feb 25
Review: A remastering and reissue of the Jack Frost recordings, a collaboration between two acclaimed Australian songwriters: Grand McLennan from The Go-Betweens and Steve Kilbey, the lead singer and bassist in The Church. The Church are well-known for their hit 'Under The Milky Way', which made the Donnie Darko soundtrack. Included in this set is their two studio albums: The Snow Job (1995) has never been on vinyl before and the self-titled debut (1991) has been out of print for more than 20 years. There's also bonus material tucked in. This release comes as The Go-Betweens have been enjoying a renaissance recently, thanks to a successful reissue campaign, and The Church have been touring. Despite this being a side project, there's no sense it's an afterthought as the pair clearly thrived in each other's company and wrote melodic, wistful and affecting songs of the highest order. Noel Gallagher would likely have been proud to write the reverb-y love song 'Thought I Was Over You' and 'Every Hour God Sends' is up there with Echo & The Bunnymen's best stuff. Meanwhile, 'Ramble' has a stark arpeggio-laden beauty to it, building from its sparse beginning into something more textured and darkly atmospheric. There's an embarrassment of riches to delve into here and it cements the pair's reputation for being among Australia's greatest ever songwriters.
