Latest new releases

The first of 26 April’s smashers comes from pop icons Pet Shop Boys, whose uplifting and reflective new album, Nonetheless, mixes electronics, live instruments and orchestral arrangements with a fresh, open sound, bringing together classic strands of PSB song-writing and moving them in new directions. The Big Decider comes into view as an album of stark significance to The Zutons, born under the weight of family tragedies, lives lost and created, reality checks, and home truths faced up to and stared down, when love for creating together becoming the most important thing of all. Charley Crockett’s critically acclaimed Man From Waco established him as one of the leaders of a sparkling revival of traditional country and folk music, and his new record, $10 Cowboy, serenades those who have to hustle to get by, who have fallen down, got back up, and ventured from home chasing a paying gig or a new start. Making Forgiveness Is Yours – the most sophisticated, vital and flamboyant creation of their career – pushed Fat White Family to the limits not only of their creative talent but of their health, their sanity, their very existence. Six Organs of Admittance is captured once again, on Time Is Glass, in the intricate tangle of the fretboards, soaring in open skies above, like lens flare cutting through the speakers, spiderwebs cracking the windshield that holds back all the onrushing reality, blowing the dust away, cutting a new path for cognition.

Our release of the week comes from three-time Grammy-winning iconoclast St. Vincent, whose fully self-produced seventh studio album, All Born Screaming, features the singles ‘Broken Man’, ‘Flea’ and focus ‘Big Time Nothing’ – with Annie Clark leading a ‘curated group of rippers’ including Dave Grohl, Cate Le Bon and Josh Freese.

19 April’s hot six blasts off with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees Pearl Jam, who return with their highly anticipated new album, Dark Matter, produced by Andrew Watt. It All Comes Down to This takes A Certain Ratio back to their roots, with 10 straight-to-the-point tracks performed by the core 3-piece line-up and a sprinkling of electronics for good measure, it continues the constant progression demonstrated by the band. This Ain’t the Way You Go Out is an album constructed from the ashes of despair, nurturing the tiniest of green shoots and giving life to something that had looked otherwise spent, as Lucy Rose re-awakens herself to the power of music. Live on Mountain Stage: Outlaws & Outliers compiles some highlights from four decades of the ‘Mountain Stage’ radio programme, curated by the show’s co-founder and long-time host, Larry Groce, many documenting now iconic artists in their formative years. And Grammy- and Oscar-winning producer, musician and songwriter T Bone Burnett is back to form with an album of 12 folk tracks featuring artists Lucius, Roseanne Cash and Weyes Blood: ultimately, in looking for ‘you’, T Bone Burnett found himself on The Other Side.

There can be only one choice for our release of the week. Undeniable, unreviewable and unstoppable: the behemoth that is Taylor Swift returns with The Tortured Poets Department – her eleventh studio album. Nothing more needs to be said.
