laibach - 'als geist'
Tweet
As concept albums go 'Also Sprach Zarathustra' is a quite stunning album and let's face it there's probably no bigger or more difficult concept than the philosophy of Nietzsche.

mark olson - 'gravity loss'
Tweet
From the lead singer of the Jayhawks and taken from his solo album 'Spokeswoman of the Bright Sun'.
Labels:
Mark Olson
morrissey - 'spent the day in bed'
Tweet
It's not one of his strongest tracks, that's for sure but certainly interesting to hear such a prominent keyboard accompaniment in one of his tracks for a change. The less said about the video the better.

Morrissey

nerina pallot - 'stay lucky'
Tweet
The new album is a little middle of the road but sometimes that is exactly where you want to be driving and right now as I blog this from my sofa, it's a great place to be.

king krule- 'czech one'
Tweet
The new album sees King Krule mining deep into jazz territory. I'm not usually a fan of that genre but he's sold me on this album.

King Krule
entrance - 'summer's child'
Tweet
An artist that defies description, this is a great track from his 2017 album 'Book of Changes'.

william patrick corgan - 'processional'
Tweet
I was never a big Smashing Pumpkins fan but this solo album from lead singer Billy Corgan is an instant hit.

Tweet
Better known as the lead singer of My Morning Jacket, this is taken from Jim James' 2016 album 'Eternally Even'.

sébastien tellier - 'shooters'
Tweet
The French producer/musical genius returns with a new soundtrack for the TV series 'A Girl Is A Gun'. This track is quite magnificent.
Labels:
Sébastien Tellier
beck - 'up all night'
Tweet
This tune, buried away in his new album is one of the bright spots in an upbeat but otherwise pedestrian collection of tunes. There's very little to hang your hat on with many easily forgettable tunes.
Labels:
Beck
courtney barnett and kurt vile - 'blue cheese'
Tweet
The new album gets a big thumbs up from me. Anyone expecting the ironic, bittersweet wordplay from Barnett will be surprised with this collaboration. It's got a much more conventional feel to it, lyrics-wise and Barnett's delivery is straight down the middle rather than the witty asides as she shares the tunes with Vile.
The first track from the album is the opener 'Over Everything' but this Americana-tinged track 'Blue Cheese' recorded for KCRW is my favourite.

Courtney Barnett,
Kurt Vile

baxter dury - 'miami (parrot and cocker too remix)'
Tweet
Fresh off the press is this Jarvis Cocker (and Parrot) remix of Baxter Dury's 'Miami'. It's pretty good.

lala & mike waterson - 'shady lady'
Tweet
I can't quite put my finger on what this tune sounds like but I love it. A great sing-song tune.

Lal & Mike Waterson

Tweet
Huge thanks to Nordic Music Review for bringing this track to my attention. Swedish band Wy here with a glorious tune.

destroyer - 'tinseltown swimming in blood'
Tweet
Destroyer's new album is quite simply stunning. I've managed to snaffle an advance copy and it's blown me away.
Labels:

kelela - 'a message'
Tweet
I'm just getting into American R&B singer, Kelela and I'm silently berating myself for not getting with the programme earlier.
Labels:
Kelela
alexandra savior - 'cupid'
Tweet
A much under-rated artist is Ms Savior. Her 2017 album 'Belladonna of Sadness' is well worth checking out.
