Album Reviews

Richard Thompson - Dream Attic (Proper)
No one has told Richard Thompson about the accepted order of things, but then he has always seemed to go his own way.

Fuzzy Lights - Twin Feathers (Little Red Rabbit)
Where before they offered layers from the off, here they serve up disjointed slices of music where several minutes of near dirge suddenly give way to a couple of minutes of whingy guitar.

The Super Vacations - Thicker Milk (SHDWPLY)
You can envisage a band of hippies smashing up their instruments and setting a drum kit on fire.

Wildbirds and Peacedrums - Rivers (Leaf)
Recorded over a week in Iceland, the country’s cold, wet and empty landscape comes biting through.

The Soundcarriers - Celeste (Melodic)
Nottingham quartet The Soundcarriers - Adam, Pish, Dorian and Little Barrie - have come up with another rummage through a 60s/70s musical charity shop that is just as appealing as their justly acclaimed 2009 debut Harmonium.

Autolux - Transit Transit (ATP)
It's been a fair few years since the release of their debut record, has Transit Transit been worth the wait?

Tame Impala - Innerspeaker (Modular)
Debut record from Australia's newsest psych rockers succeeds in justifying tongues-a-wagging.

Bronto Skylift - The White Crow (self-release)
Spasmodic riffs and songs with unsettling patterns set somewhere between a math-rock enthusiast having a fit and scuzzy riffs getting down and dirty with your speakers. Those pesky Scots!!!

Moulettes - Moulettes (Balling The Jack)
If the Moulettes were a drink, they would certainly be Sailor Jerry’s.
