Latest new releases

First out of the traps for 23 January are Bangs & Talbot – acid jazz founding figure Chris Bangs and Style Council member Mick Talbot – who return with their new album, Smokin’ Aces, joined by musicians from all over the world. The Damned return with a very personal record, Not Like Everybody Else: a tribute to the band’s late guitarist Brian James, with renditions of 10 well-known songs by some of the artists who influenced Brian on his musical journey. Lucinda Williams has never shied away from writing about difficult but real things, and she gets seriously topical on World’s Gone Wrong: a pure reflection of our very turbulent times, intense and musically powerful. Megadeth sign off on their own terms with one final, self-titled studio album, which serves as the definitive closing chapter to one of the most influential catalogues in heavy music and represents a creative milestone. Metal and avant-pop artist Poppy returns with Empty Hands, a daring set of songs that blurs the lines between heavy and hypnotic, cementing her status as a rising visionary within the rock genre.

Our release of the week is from Craven Faults, who take a journey on Sidings around one of the great engineering projects of the industrial age – 14 tunnels and 22 viaducts to open up the north – drawing inspiration from the progress in manmade infrastructure and the transport of goods.

The first of our picks for 9 & 16 January comes from rock icons Alter Bridge, who follow 2022’s massive Pawns & Kings with a hard-hitting new self-titled album. On Secret Love, avant-garde quartet Dry Cleaning catalyse the Reaganite paranoia of early ’80s US punk and hardcore with the dry strut of Keith Richards, stoner rock, dystopian degradation, playful no-wave and pastoral fingerpicking. A Very Lonely Solstice is a career-spanning 13-track collection from Fleet Foxes’ Robin Pecknold, originally a live-stream event during December 2020’s Covid-19 lock-down that provided solace and a sense of community to fans quarantined at home. On S.P.Q.R., charismatic Marillion frontman Steve Hogarth reimagines Marillion classics and solo material through cinematic arrangements in a live performance at Rome’s Sala Sinopoli, accompanied by Italian progressive band RanestRane and the Flowing Chords choir. Selling a Vibe, the bold new album from The Cribs, captures the Wakefield-born siblings at their bottle-rocket energetic best, finally ackowledging the indestructible bond exists between them.

Our release of the fortnight is the latest from Courtney Marie Andrews, long celebrated as an artist who challenges herself and who finds new interplays of folk and americana. Valentine prizes raw performance rather than perfection and is Andrews’s most sonically explorative record thus far, drawing inspiration from her art outside of music.
