Isle of Wight punks Grade 2 are releasing an acoustic album as well.
 
My Spotify informed me Beach House released an album 2 days ago. Did anyone else catch that?

Also, do we have a Spotify list or something going? I’ve been quite lax on new music this year but my top records are:

- Prioritise Pleasure - Self Esteem
- Gold-Digger Sounds - Leon Bridges
- TYRON - Slowthai

But I really need to go back and review. Will probably look for the best albums you’ve all recommended and go and review.

Right I'm having a look at all of them. Only a few I recognise and you seem to have your finger on the pulse.

I like Grizzly Bear. Vecatimest is probably their best album and probably the one to start with.
