Black Francis

Abbabubba

With the Pixies and as Frank Black, Black Francis often tucked away some of his best songs as B-sides, and the collection Abbabubba reveals that this is still the case.

Bill Callahan

Apocalypse

Eessentially an ensemble recorded live in the studio, Callahan’s Apocalypse is the corpus delecti.

Something happened here! If tape is like meat, this record is the whole hog! Callahan, riding on the back of his band, corrals them all & guides them single-handedly through the valley with love & ferocity.

Raveonettes

Raven In the Grave

After two great albums that redefined and nearly perfected their noisy girl group and razorblades wall of sound, the Raveonettes switch things up on their fifth album, Raven in the Grave.

In keeping with the title, the album trades out the fizzy, candy-sweet element of their songs and sound for something darker and gloomier.

Timber Timbre

Creep On Creepin’ On

Creep On Creepin’ On contains heartrending compositions that engage, transport and challenge.

The album moves forward from the band’s debut, towards the realization of its ability to simultaneously invoke and disguise the most essential elements of Pop and Rock music with chilling authenticity.

Radiohead

King Of Limbs

Recorded on and off throughout 2010, the album is a cohesive collection of songs that were laid down by the band in a more relaxed fashion than their ambitious In Rainbows long-player.

Primal Scream

Screamadelica 2CD 20th Anniversary Edition

UK two CD edition contains the original 11 track album remastered by Primal Scream and Kevin Shields, plus a bonus CD containing the four track Dixie Narco EP.

Digitally remastered 20th Anniversary edition of this classic 1991 album.

J. Mascis

Several Shades Of Why

2011 solo album from the Dinosaur Jr. mainman. Nearly all acoustic Several Shades Of Why was created with the help of a few friends. Notable amongst them are Kurt Vile, Sophie Trudeau (A Silver Mount Zion), Kurt Fedora (long-time collusionist), Kevin Drew (Broken Social Scene), Ben Bridwell (Band Of Horses), Pall Jenkins (Black Heart Procession), Matt Valentine (The Golden Road), and Suzanne Thorpe (Wounded Knees). Together in small mutable groupings, they conjure up classic sounds ranging from English-tinged Folk to drifty, West Coast-style singer/songwriterism. But every track, every note even, bears that distinct Mascis watermark, both in the shape of the tunes and the glorious rasp of the vocals. Ten brilliant tunes that quietly grow and expand until they fill your brain with the purest pleasure.

Elbow

Build a Rocket Boys !

2011 album from the Manchester-based Indie Rock quintet, the follow-up to their Mercury Prize winning 2008 album The Seldom Seen Kid.

As on their highly-successful predecessor, the band chose to self produce the record in their hometown.

While the lyrics are strongly influenced by singer Guy Garvey’s childhood. Elbow’s sound is as bold and grand as it has ever been.
