Review: You could probably write a dissertation, if not full thesis, on the symbolism of this album. The biggest name in British chart pop compilations, NOW, turns its hand to spotlighting less obvious tracks from the decade that gave birth to the entire franchise. What this reflects, in terms of what constitutes 'popular' music today, and the questionable relevance of the UK Top 40, is a fascinating train of thought.
Musically speaking, the curators have done a decent job in selecting a broad range of artists, bands and sounds from the fertile grounds of the 1980s. Plenty here are household names - The Stranglers, Devo, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Smiths, Eurythmics, Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart. Nevertheless, you won't find 'Sweet Dreams' on the track list, and instead rarer archive material is allowed to shine: 'Vicious Games' rather than 'Oh Yeah' by Yello, The Cure's stunning 'A Forest' - we could go on.

Review: Cabaret Sauvage is one of the most unique venues in the world. Situated in Park de la Villette in north-central Paris, the circus-styled institution hosts live gigs and club events featuring celebrated artists from across the globe, and has been doing this since first opening in 1997. One evening, the Tricatel crew decided to take over the space for a showcase of live bands, hence us now being able to get hands on this soon-to-be collector's item. Paying tribute to what was an incredible night of incredibly varied music, the tracks list here represents all the artists who played at the date, and runs through a vast gamut of styles. The male-chorus and psyche pop rock of Leo Blomov, Chassol's neo-classical-opera-experimentations, the lo fi country-folk-swing of Ingrid Caven, and the bouncing synthdom of Bertrand Burgalat being a few highlights.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon (Soundtrack) (gatefold gold vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: 0075678 608988. Rel: 11 Jul 24
Review: The Twilight Saga: New Moon OST features a stellar lineup of indie and alternative artists. With contributions from Thom Yorke, Death Cab for Cutie, Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, St. Vincent, and Muse, the album brings together a diverse and talented group of musicians. Thom Yorke's 'Hearing Damage' stands out with its jittery synth-rock, capturing the emotional intensity of the film. Grizzly Bear's collaboration with Victoria Legrand on 'Slow Life' and Bon Iver's duet with St. Vincent on 'Roslyn' add ethereal beauty to the soundtrack. Death Cab for Cutie's 'Meet Me on the Equinox' delivers a powerful anthem, while Lykke Li's 'Possibility' showcases her haunting vocal prowess. Even the more upbeat tracks like Hurricane Bells' 'Monsters' and Sea Wolf's 'The Violet Hour' bring a refreshing energy to the mix. The album encapsulates the melancholic and romantic themes of New Moon, making it an essential companion for fans of the series and indie music enthusiasts alike.

Review: NOW's ongoing 'Yearbook' series, which offers a wealth of hits from a specific year across four action-packed discs, moves on to 1977 - a year when disco and punk were on the rise. There's plenty of the former showcased here - think Chic, Candi Staton, Donna Summer, the Trammps, Thelma Houston and Marvin Gaye - as well as classic and blue-eyed soul from the likes of Boz Scaggs and the Drifters. Punk and alternative rock of the period are relatively well catered for too, thanks to hits from the Ramones, the Stranglers, The Jam and the Clash. Throw in a host of familiar mainstream pop and rock favourites, as well as a clutch of curiosities (Mike Oldfield's 'Portsmouth') and you have a faithfully expansive reflection of what British pop fans were listening to in 1977.

Do It Yourself: The Rise Of The Independent Music Industry After Punk (gatefold translucent orange vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: SJRLP 552. Rel: 31 Oct 24
Review: Out of print for over 15 years, the Soul Jazz distributed Do It Yourself compilation offers up a bevy of both essential and niche acts from the realms of punk, post-punk, punk-funk, dance-punk and even further afield electronic experimentations where the term "punk" becomes utterly redundant. All UK artists recorded between the late 70s and 80s, the collection sonically details the aftermath of the British punk movement in real time, complete with legacy names such as Buzzcocks, A Certain Ratio and The Last Gang to Red Lorry Yellow Lorry and even Throbbing Gristle. Housed in a gatefold sleeve and spread across translucent orange vinyl 2xLP, the collection has been fully remastered and features extensive sleevenotes and photography as well as interviews with key behind-the-scene players, providing a unique insight into just how much the landscape of independent music changed after the advent of punk.

The Fault In Our Stars (Soundtrack) (gatefold "galaxy" heavyweight blue & white vinyl 2xLP + insert)
Cat: 075678 604126. Rel: 14 Nov 24
Review: Telling the story of a teenage girl battling thyroid cancer which has spread to her lungs, and the amputee osteosarcoma survivor she meets and falls in love with at the support group her mother encourages (forces) her to attend, suffice to say emotions run high in The Fault In Our Stars. A bonafide tearjerker, both in its original novel and subsequent 2014 movie form, anyone who wasn't expecting the score to the latter to be filled with huge rousing and heartrending indie pop was kidding themselves. Here we have it, then, opening on Ed Sheeran, into Jake Bugg, Kodaline, Lykki Li, M83, Ray Lamontagne and Charli XCX, the track list reads like a map of Gen Z coming of age with a few treats for millennials, and plays out like a radio station that lives up to the 'killer no filler' claim. Providing, that is, you're moved by stadium-sized balladry, sing-along chart dance and shoegaze-y electronica.

Review: Part 2 of this exciting soundtrack brings an array of music that complements the series' epic conclusion. Headlined by Ashnikko's electrifying anthem 'Paint The Town Blue', this collection includes contributions from a diverse lineup of artists such as Stray Kids, Young Miko, Tom Morello, d4vd, Twenty One Pilots, Marcus King, King Princess and more. The album strikes a perfect balance between high-energy tracks and more introspective tunes, enhancing the emotional depth of the show and its beloved characters. Following the success of the first soundtrack, this edition continues to elevate Arcane's storytelling, adding even more layers to its vivid world. Notable contributions also come from Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park and Imagine Dragons, further enriching the listening experience. With its dynamic range of sounds, the Arcane Season 2 soundtrack is a powerful companion to the series, deepening the viewer's connection to the world and characters.

Deadpool & Wolverine (Soundtrack) (gatefold pinwheel vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: HWD 1588061. Rel: 25 Jul 24
Hugh Jackman, Keala Settle, Zac Efron, Zendaya & The Greatest Showman Ensemble - "The Greatest Show" (3:48)
Review: You don't need to have seen the summer blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine to know exactly what it's like. Alarm bells began ringing years ago at Marvel over the decline of interest around a universe which, in cinematic terms at least, seems to have no limits or qualms about churning out product, no matter the quality. Things have got worse since, albeit with a few exceptions - like the Deadpool franchise. The wisecracking anti-hero's flicks go for a more adult jugular than many comic book adaptations, and therefore the character makes an ideal partner for the X-Men's blade-fingered menace, Wolverine. Together, they make an odd couple that were never going to be in a straight-up superhero talkie. Instead, it's tangible tongue-in-cheek at times, lighting paced, and delightfully self-aware stuff that needs a soundtrack running between over-cooked chart emo to classic croonerville, 1980s pop rock to rousing r&b. Here you go then.

Review: What's not to love here? It's a best of proper 80s indie pop, so it delves into C86 territory, with the likes of Primal Scream, The Wedding Present and The Pastels all represented. Other highlights include Scottish legends - and pre-C86 indie label pioneers - Orange Juice and their banger 'Dying Day', which still sounds soulful and ahead of its time. The Field Mice give us a masterclass on vocal reverb with their shoegaze ripper 'Sensitive' and The Railway Children evoke The Smiths on 'Brighter'. This is a stellar collection that truly captures the best sounds of the 80s.

Come To My World: A Brief History Of Indie Pop 1985-2023 (limited sun yellow & crystal green vinyl 2xLP + booklet)
Cat: BN 11LPX. Rel: 07 Nov 24
Review: Come to My World, released by Two-Piers, is a fantastic look through the rich and often misunderstood history of Indie Pop. This compilation delves into the genre's evolution from its grassroots beginnings in the 1980s to the vibrant scene that thrives today. Indie Pop has always been more than just music; it's a subculture where fans cherish 7" B-sides, fanzines, and handmade record sleeves, forming a tight-knit community that values DIY ethics and underground charm. The compilation begins with groundbreaking acts like Talulah Gosh, The Flatmates, and Primal Scream, all of whom laid the foundation on labels such as Sarah Records and Creation. It then explores the influential C86 era, featuring more commercially successful bands like The Primitives and The Soup Dragons, before diving into the 1990s with the unsung brilliance of Heavenly and the burgeoning Scottish scene with BMX Bandits and The Vaselines. As the genre entered the 2000s, US bands like Dum Dum Girls and The Pains of Being Pure at Heart carried the torch, while across the Atlantic, groups like Joanna Gruesome and Veronica Falls kept the spirit alive. The compilation closes with the future of indie pop with rising stars like The Goon Sax and Ribbon Stage, proving that the genre's legacy remains vibrant. Pressed on a limited 'sunburst marvel' marbled & crystal green vinyl 2xLP, Come to My World is both a tribute to Indie Pop's past and a celebration of its enduring influence. It's an invitation to explore and embrace a world that has always thrived just beneath the mainstream's surface.

NOW That's What I Call An Era: The Sound Of The Suburbs 1977-1980 (trifold black white & red vinyl 3xLP)
Cat: LPNNNOW 154. Rel: 06 Feb 25
Review: This compilation serves as a sonic time capsule, collecting the raw energy and diversity a 70s scene with its roots in the UK's suburban music scene. Across three LPs, it highlights punk, post-punk, new wave and ska with an expertly curated tracklist that celebrates both iconic anthems and underground gems. Kicking off with explosive tracks like 'London Calling' and 'Blitzkrieg Bop', the first side sets the tone with pure punk energy. From the urgency of The Undertones 'Teenage Kicks' to the melancholic beauty of Joy Division's 'Love Will Tear Us Apart', it's a journey through the era's emotional spectrum. The inclusion of The Cure's 'Boys Don't Cry' and XTC's 'Making Plans For Nigel' shows the post-punk shift toward introspection and innovation. The second LP leans into eclecticism, blending punk-fueled energy to melodic classics. It captures the intersection of rebellion and refinement. Tracks like Martha And The Muffins' 'Echo Beach' and Pretenders 'Brass In Pocket' add a touch of sophistication with a broader palette of sounds. Finally, the third LP celebrates the ska revival and early synth-pop with The Specials 'Gangsters', English Beat's 'Mirror In The Bathroom' and UB40's 'Food For Thought', before transitioning into more futuristic sounds like Gary Numan's 'Are 'Friends' Electric?' and The Buggles 'Video Killed The Radio Star'. Ending with a nod to the dawn of a new musical era, this collection balances nostalgia with a depth not many others get close to.

Review: Skep Wax's first Under The Bridge compilation, released in 2022, reunited the bands, songwriters and producers who populated cult early '90s indie label Sarah Records. This hotly anticipated follow-up repeats the trick, presenting 20 recently recorded cuts from the Bristol-based imprint's original roster of artists. It too, is a hugely successful - and understandably nostalgic - exercise, with hi9ghlights including the bright-and-breezy indie jangliness of Action Painting's 'Just Who Are The Cockleshell Heroes', the shoegaze-influenced dream pop haziness of Soundwire's 'Everything Is Real', the near Balearic soft focus shuffle of 'Double Nine' by GNAC, and the saucer-eyed excellence of The Orchids' 'A Final Love Song'.

Review: The Pains of Being Pure At Heart. The Hit Parade. Primal Scream. The Springfields. Two Piers has bitten off perhaps more than any label, let alone singular compilation, could ever hope to chew with the rather challenging idea of compressing almost 40 years of indie pop history into an album. Albeit an expansive one. Nevertheless, Come To My World does a fantastic job directing a colourful montage of sounds that have defined and rethought the charts during the past few decades, pioneering bands that have contributed to the rich tapestry of sonic art that soundtracked births, deaths, marriages, falling in love, falling out of love, drunken nights in sticky-floored clubs, and solitary journeys home on rain-soaked streets - whether listening to a Walkman, Discman, MiniDisc player or digital music device.

Secret Superstar Sounds: Scraping Bubblegum Off My Soul 1977-80: Punk Powerpop New Wave DIY (unmixed CD)
Cat: SJRCD 571. Rel: 13 Mar 25
Review: On the label's latest deep dive into the margins of underground music culture, Soul Jazz Records has decided to take us back to the late 1970s and Britain's DIY 'powerpop' movement - a self-contained micro-scene whose obscure and proudly independent artists mixed elements of punk with (as the extensive liner notes put it) "melodically beautiful 60s pop and garage sounds". On offer is a predictably impressive, 150-track selection of self-released songs from bands forgotten by all but the most obsessive powerpop nerds. Highlights include the gravelly, ten-ton riffs and bawled vocals of 'London' by Gobblinz, the proto indie-jangle-goes-punk strut of Xdreamysts' 'Right Way Home', the bass-heavy post-punk joy of The Monitors' 'Compulsory Fun' and the post-punk reggae/blue-eyed soul fusion of 'Cry Myself To Sleep' by Cosmic Romance.

Review: This new 2xLP 30th anniversary vinyl edition of the superbly curated soundtrack to Reality Bites is a musical testament to a under-recognised film classic. The 1994 romcom starring Winona Ryder, Ethan Hawke and Ben Stiller follows the deflated life of an aspiring videographer, who in turn documents the disenfranchised lives of her friends and roommates. Thus known for its candid but still somewhat sensationalistic depiction of the young adult lives of Generation X, the soundtrack therewith is fitting, featuring from Squeeze, Dinosaur Jr., The Knack, U2, Lenny Kraviz, Big Mountain, Me Phi Me and even Ethan Hawke himself.

The list could go on, but our point will always be the same - whatever page you turn to first, the story of Elephant 6 is one of a sorely under-referenced musical universe of multi-genre music that's hard to move beyond once you find it. The 2022 documentary is testimony to that, and now the official soundtrack, featuring many of the loose collective's finest affiliates and associates, offers us a chance to take a broad selection home. And we really do mean broad. Lo fi garage rock, weirdo guitar, surf, rock 'n' roll, grunge, alt, leftfield and plenty more can be heard in this marvellous brew.

Review: Heavenly continues to be one of the strongest forces in the indie label scene, and along with their considerable roster comes the opportunity to commissioned all kinds of fantastic remixes. Keeping in mind their roots in the fertile crossovers of indie and dance music in the early 90s, the label maintains a keen instinct for fresh approaches in the club world, some of which are gathered here on this seventh entry in the Heavenly Remixes series. Pressed up on double 12", you can hear the likes of Hardway Bros and Horse Meat Disco bringing the fierce, disco-infused house they're best known for, while Shy One brings her maverick broken beat to The Orielles and mighty bleep hero Forgemasters make a welcome return remixing Todmorden's Working Men's Club.

Review: Put together in part to mark the tenth anniversary of Jack Rollo and Elaine Tierney's monthly NTS radio show, Searchlight Moonbeam is a "narrative compilation" described by fast-rising Aussie imprint Efficient Space as an "autumnal dreamscape". It's a conceptual theme open to interpretation, but in practice that means a gorgeous, atmospheric and Bonfire Night-friendly mix of acoustic songs (Bo Harwood & John Casavettes), exotic Indian neo-classical music (Bhairavi Raman & Nanthesh Sivarajah), string-laden outsider pop (The King of Luxemburg), heady global beats (OG Jigg), lo-fi indie haziness (Klang), ghostly and dreamy trip-hop (Scala), psychedelic dream pop (Soft Location), and picturesque piano pieces (Delphine Dora). A genuine triumph.

Fantastic Voyage: New Sounds For The European Canon 1977-1981 (gatefold heavyweight vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: XXQLP2 124. Rel: 24 Jan 24
Review: Fantastic Voyage: New Sounds For The European Cannon 1977-1981 is one of the most grandiose titles for a record we have come across in a while, but we like it. Fortunately for those involved, the music on this new gatefold heavyweight double album stands up to scrutiny for lovers of sounds that collide electronic, post-rock and experimental with synth, new wave and even a touch of new age ambient. The track list is a big one with tried and tested names like Patrick Cowley, Cabaret Voltaire, the late Ryuichi Sakamoto, Peter Gabriel and more all featuring. It makes for quite the trip and a fine reminder of the magical newness of electronic music back then.

Review: Gomma played a vital role in the popularisation of the indie-dance explosion that happened some 20 years ago now. Best known for being spearheaded by US indie outfit LDC Sound system, it combined dance, disco, wave, post-punk and more into a party-ready sound that found favour with both ravers and guitar heads. This second collection from the German label highlights the best of music they put out back then with names like In Flagranti, label co-founder Munk, Nancy Whang & Bonar Bradberry and many more all present and correct.

Review: Under The Bridge was a compilation of work by artists who had, at some point or another, recorded on the cult imprint Sarah Records. It should already be on your radar. If not, we recommend digging for it. Now here's part two, a 2024 update which takes that idea much further, presenting a more expansive track list and platforming some brand new projects to boot. Timeless stuff comes thick and, quite often, pretty fast, with plenty of driving garage rock to feel propelled by. Old favourites are here, for example Even As We Speak and Secret Shine, Action Painting! and The Hit Parade. And there are also new groups, such as Michael Hiscock of The Field Mice leading an act called Gentle Spring, and a collaboration between Mark Tranmer and James Hackett, both usually of The Orchids (who also appear on here), but recording as Vetchinsky Settings. A feast, basically.

Review: The Saltburn soundtrack, released on red vinyl, is a great collection of tracks that capture the dark, humorous essence of Emerald Fennell's 2023 black comedy. This eclectic mix of songs enhances the film's twisted narrative. Side-1 opens with Bloc Party's 'This Modern Love,' a nod to the film's exploration of complicated relationships. Ladytron's 'Destroy Everything You Touch' and Cold War Kids' 'Hang Me Up To Dry' continue this theme of emotional turmoil. The infectious energy of Mason vs Princess Superstar's 'Perfect (Exceeder)' adds a pulse to the story's underlying tension. Side-2 is highlighted by Sophie Ellis-Bextor's 'Murder on the Dancefloor,' a playful yet sinister track that resonates with the film's dark humor. MGMT's 'Time To Pretend' and The Killers' iconic 'Mr Brightside' reflect the characters' hedonistic pursuits. The inclusion of the twisted 'Have a Cheeky Christmas' by The Cheeky Girls adds a bizarre, yet fitting, touch to this unusual collection. Encapsulates the film's edgy and eccentric atmosphere in the most ideal way.

Review: Reissued for the first time via Atlantic Records comes the official soundtrack to Twilight: New Moon, the second instalment in the Twilight film franchise, which is in turn based on the novel of the same name. With the OST component of the score again handled by Alexandre Desplat, and its curated remainder selected by music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas, New Moon is a compelling fusion of classical filmic orchestral music and brooding emo indie rock: the perfect combo to nail the affective headspace of both Edward and Jacob campers.

Review: Not just a clever name, then, this companion piece to the equally aptly-titled Nice Swan Introduces Volume 1 gives an overview of highlights from the exalted UK independent record label, based on releases between since spring 2022. Suffice to say, there have been many notable additions to the back catalogue in that time and the tracks have come as broad as they have thick and fast. As this incredibly varied collection proves, from the surreal antique balladry of Avice Caro ('End of the Day'), to the noise metal of 'Gmaps' by Cowboyy. Attempting to pick particular must hears isn't easy, or logical, then. But let's just say the raw garage rock 'n' roll twang of Shady Baby's 'Come to Life' and Splint's riff-happy '145' are definitely up there. As is the psychedelic-hued indie of Saloon Dion ('Hey Hey') and the Prima Queen's dreamy 'Chew My Cheeks'.

Review: The music of London's Blitz nightclub is celebrated with a new box-set curated by Rusty Egan, the man who, with Steve Strange, helped usher in a transition from the late 70s musical gloom into a glamorous, sonorous new 1980s. After their prior band, Rich Kids, disbanded in 1978, Egan and Strange saw through their enterprising excesses with a new venture, launching the Blitz club as a wine bar in Covent Garden. Bottling the unique, generic essence of the nightclub - at a time where the styles and sounds of David Bowie, Sade, Spandau Ballet, Boy George, Billy Idol, Ultravox, Visage, Marilyn and Gary Numan reigned supreme, yet were often not heard all in one physical place - this new reminiscence compilation brings both well-known and lesser-heard gems of the Blitz era to a fantastically fresh set of ears, proving that even you, too, can be a hero, just for one day.

Your Lungs & Your Tongues (clear vinyl LP + insert (indie exclusive))
Cat: NUM 817LPC2. Rel: 13 Mar 25
Review: Notoriously elusive, sophisti-thereal pop/post-punk collective Vazz answer to almost no-one. Emerging from the same late 70s/early 80s mutant formaldehyde mists that spawned This Mortal Coil and Crepuscule, yet bringing the dream pop sound to Glasgow, Hugh Small and Anna Howson are still going strong as a boutique bringing-together of mindful, magnetic musicians, pedigreed for the seemly discotheque. First released on Cathexis Records, we are indeed much cathected to both EPs in this collection. In sloshing but somehow still self-contained fashion, 'Your Final Word' swims in reverb nearly to the point of drowning its own harmonies, yet breathability is somehow still retained. 'Bleached White Skin' is the perfect storm of wavy wash, operatic doublings and ditzy drum machine, and 'Breath' brings spring-verb coldwave stylings to a languorous, pitchy closer. Then 'Feverpitch' and 'For A Reason' hear the compilation sprawl further into arpeggiating tumult, as we move on to material from the 1987 'Feverpitch' EP. This 40th anniversary edition collates both EPs and adds a handful of unissued minimal wave pearls.

Review: Returning to vinyl for a 40th-anniversary edition, the Glasgow duo's singular approach to post-punk and coldwave is sure find a larger fan base with its fantastic vintage sound. Originally released in 1986 and formed by Hugh Small and Anna Howson, Vazz carved out a distinctive space in the mid-80s. Their soundia fusion of skeletal electronics, atmospheric guitar and hushed yet striking vocalsimelds the austerity of coldwave with the melodic sensibility of synth-pop. Drum machines pulse beneath shimmering textures, while Howson's spectral delivery drifts through the mix, lending an eerie, romantic detachment. Key moments highlight their range: 'Your Final Word' bathes in cavernous reverb, 'Bleached White Skin' sways with layered vocals and murky waves and 'Breath' lingers in icy, stretched-out melancholia. More rhythmically urgent, 'Feverpitch' and 'For A Reason' build on cascading arpeggios and taut structures. Vazz's work has grown in stature over time, finding a home in the post-punk imagination for its ghostly charm and understated allure.

Earthling (gatefold translucent blue marbled vinyl LP + booklet)
Cat: 452543 0. Rel: 29 Jul 22
Review: It should take about two seconds to realise, if you didn't already know, that Eddie Vedder is the voice of Pearl Jam, one of the finest rock bands to come out of the US in the late stages of the 20th Century, and one of the outfit's four (yes, four) guitarists. Ranked by none other than Rolling Stone magazine as the seventh finest lead singer of all time, it's safe to say he's the kind of pedigree you want to venture out as a soloist.
Now four albums in his own name deep, Earthling may not be rewriting any rule books or pushing boundaries and our perception of what's possible, but it is an incredibly well conceived and executed heavy rock 'n' roll album, showcasing a man with seemingly infinite creative energy, here unleashing a combination of heartfelt alt, breakneck garage-grunge, and searing big room stuff that you'll struggle to forget after hearing just once. Songwriting and guitar work at their finest.

It is a collab between Vega and Ric Ocasek of The Cars and Ministry's Al Jourgenson. It never made any moves in the charts the likes but did end up being an album revered by fans. It was also critically acclaimed and now gets a first ever reissue on lovely highlighter yellow vinyl.

Loaded (reissue) (hybrid SACD)
Cat: CAPA 034SA. Rel: 19 Mar 25
Review: The Velvet Underground's Loaded, a pivotal rock record from 1970, returns in a meticulously remastered SACD format. The album marked the band's bid for mainstream success, with label head Ahmet Ertegun pushing Lou Reed to deliver a record "loaded with hits". The result was a shimmering rock collection, though one far removed from the group's avant-garde roots. Though Reed left the band before its release, Loaded still shines as a masterclass in rock archetypes. Tracks like 'Sweet Jane' and 'Rock & Roll' cemented their status as proto-punk pioneers, while the sunny cynicism of 'Who Loves the Sun' and the rollicking 'Head Held High' showcased the band's sardonic wit. With Doug Yule taking on a leading roleisinging four tracks and playing much of the instrumentationiand Maureen Tucker absent on maternity leave, the album stands as both a departure from and a reflection of their earlier works. A near-perfect rock album, yet its polished production and radio-friendly leanings make it an outlier in the Velvet Underground canon. The SACD reissue offers audiophiles the ideal digital experience, capturing the tension between pop ambition and artistic identity that defines this bittersweet swan song. Everyone should own a copy of this magnificent album.

Review: Lou Reed, Sterling Morrison, John Cale, Doug Yule, Maureen Tucker and - a little later - Nico broke the mould with their efforts as The Velvet Underground. The Andy Warhol-managed and produced cult rock icons helped lay the foundations for New Wave and punk about a decade before either sound really started to make inroads in any circles, let alone commercial ones. And, listening back to any of their records now, the music itself isn't just a significant bookmark theoretically: it all still sounds incredible today.
Todd Haynes' highly recommendable documentary charts at least some of that story in a commendable way, more so when you consider it arrived around 50 years after the original lineup disbanded. Using interviews with surviving members Cale and Tucker, alongside archive footage, music and other material, it paints a vivid portrait of an equally vivid band. With tracks by them in question, Bo Diddley, The Primitives and The Diablos, this OST helps colour that picture, and era, properly.

Review: Loaded is The Velvet Underground's second-most lauded album, after their scratch-n-sniffable debut LP. Among other things, it's also a cornerstone in the genre of extremely literal rock album covers, depicting a velvet red smoke wafting from an underground railway station. The album's title was an allusion to the fact that it was intended to be an appealing record, solely for radio play, hence it being 'Loaded' with hits. Glorious gems such as 'Sweet Jane' bound forward with TVU's usual euphemistic, ironic optimism, and this reissue is sure to nail the LP's full-bodied sound once more.

Loaded, The Velvet Underground's final album featuring Lou Reed, epitomises a perfect rock 'n' roll record. Released in 1970 after their stint with Verve, it marked the band's shift to Atlantic Records under Ahmet Ertegun's directive for a hit-laden album. The absence of founding members John Cale and Maureen Tucker, coupled with Doug Yule's prominent role, shifts the album's dynamic but does not compromise its impact. With standout tracks like 'Sweet Jane' and 'Rock & Roll,' it feels like a greatest hits collection, expertly navigating rock archetypes. This 180-gram 45 RPM double LP reissue by Analogue Productions, pressed at Quality Record Pressings and housed in a tip-on old style gatefold jacket by Stoughton Printing, provides an exquisite listening experience. A certified rock classic and a significant chapter in the Velvets' legacy.

They're also the latest of many acts to get the Now Playing 'best of' treatment, featuring iconic songs such as the brilliant 'Sweet Jane' and more hard-hitting 'Rock and Roll', both of which get served up in their full-length versions.
