Nick Cave & Warren Wllis released a soundtrack today for the upcoming film La Panthère Des Neiges. Counted at least 3 tracks with vocals. It's good.

Hate to be a pain in the arse, but LJG’s Stay Alive was October 2020
Really? Fuck - I looked at it as well - bought it at the show a couple of months ago and there's no (C) date on it! (My Excel spreadsheet
is also wrong)

my list of best albums of the year, much delayed...
For Those I Love by For Those I Love
For Those I Love by For Those I Love

It's my favourite by far. I could mention Mogwai, Nick Cave & Warren Ellis, Self Esteem, Wasuremono, Richard Dawson & Circle, The Liminans and Laurent Garnier and many others. I suspect that Aeon Station would be well up there had they not released the album daftly late in the year.
You should post the long list, it’s always nice
I’m listening to Aeon Station right now, it is good
If I have the time, I will. It'll probably be longer than usual though.
That’s not a bad thing
Mdou Moctar will be in there. Cracking album, great guitarist!

Actually, yes, I'm listening to Snail Mail and I think it's a grower, so swap that one in...tough call though...maybe for Adult Mom or Hatfield at a push, unless I'm allowed an 11...and put Piroshka in the bubbling-unders instead

I find it absolutely baffling that Snail Mail isn’t on that list at all.

I can’t understand how many of these ‘Best Albums of 2021’ (not the SMB) have chosen War on Drugs’ latest effort. I thought it was cringingly bad.
10 Gary Rowells

I thought it was good. Its got a really nice feel to it. The downside is that, like Status Quo, they seem to be getting to the point where they only have one good song, which is great, but which they keep repeating. I do like the Quo though.
I was a tad underwhelmed.
I thought it was okay but it's probably my least favourite of theirs.
