Few others to give a listen:

Lande Hekt - Jangly guitar pop. It reminds me a lot of Veronica Falls if you enjoyed them about a decade ago.
Alice Costelloe - similar to the above. She used to be the singer in Big Deal, but this is her debut solo record. Very good.
deathcrash - their most accessible record to date.
PVA - intense, pulsing. Good.
Shaking Hand - a bit post punky, a bit Midwest emo. Rock solid debut album.

@James What do you think of the new Ulrika Spacek album? I've heard it a couple of times, but it's not doing much for me.

Unfortunately it was pretty forgettable. I've not really been properly gripped by anything they've done (inc the solo records) since Modem English Decoration.

They've seemingly chosen to drop all of their edge and urgency which is a shame. They used to be really fun. It's a bit flat these days.

Oldstar- Of the highway

A lot of my favourites already mentioned but I'll throw Greazy Alice into the mix.
 
Started with the new LYR album. Unsurprisingly I enjoyed it as a fan of Simon Armitage. Will also give Billy Fuller and Angine de Poitrine a listen.
