Great contribution mate, this really is the thread for you !!
Had a couple of listens to the SVE album. It's okay but not blowing me away.
That shouty bit in 17 is so bad. She doesn't need to try so hard to make things sound epic, it just comes across as forced.

Genuinely don’t get the hype for it. And I really liked her earlier stuff
LUH is good in places, but a bit plodding elsewhere. Which is a disappointment
The Great MES

The Scottish Cure?
UNKLE announce follow up album to 2017s The Road part 1. The new release will naturally be titled the Road part 2.
Lead single just been released and it’s featuring Ton Smith from Editors and one of the composers from Royal Synphobia who’s also done loads of film scores. It’s very good.

I really enjoyed the Deerhunter album, as good as the reviews said IMO.
Working slowly through things... busy day at work. TrollFest are very much. SO far...
Angelo de Augustine - thoroughly reccomended for fans of Sufjan.
TrollFest - Norwegian folk metal at its finest. Highly entertaining but probably not in line with this thread!
Buke and Gaze - I'd not heard of this lot before Uncut gave this album a cracking review. Apparently, this is more electronic than their previous material. I've filed it under wonderfully, weird pop.

I might give Trollfest a go. I loved Korpiklaani back in the early/mid 00s.
That Angelo de Augustine album is magic
It is really good, yes. The Steve twins (Gunn and Mason) have both released good albums as well. Still to listen to either Deerhunter or SVE, which had the highest broadsheet profiles of the week.
Having now listened to it, new is a lot more, er, songy, if that makes sense... back catalogue is great but less obviously sellable. Angular, artsy, ambient are all words beginning with A that are sometimes used to describe them. Very good live!

Fading Frontier (the previous album) was a lot more commercial too.
Really enjoying the new one. To be honest the only album I’m not that keen on is Monomania.
Forgot to say that Halcyon Digest is their most critically acclaimed album for sure, it certainly got them the attention they deserved.

Cheers will give that a go tomorrow.

Phoebe Bridgers and Conor Oberst drop collaborative album as Better Oblivion Community Center
This was a new one on me. Conor Oberst and Phoebe Bridgers (no idea who she is. A quick google makes me think I might like her - indie-pop/indie-rock/folk-rock musician in Ryan Adams’ label) released a collaboration album overnight. I’ve got it downloaded to listen to today

PBs debut record is really lovely.
Really dull.
