ANYX Starline
Anchoress front-person’s solo debut. She takes a sculptural approach to her songs, starting with her voice and words as internal navigation from which she works outwards. Around this core, she builds minimal instrumentation – harp, keys, guitar, double bass – until each song is muscular and multi-dimensional.
midori jaeger (Re)planted
A counterpart to the earlier (Un)planted continues to transmute midori’s uprootedness and mixed cultural heritage into songs written from the cello, this time harnessing a softer language, with her signature groove-led style of playing giving way to more delicate and flowing passages.
Red Spirit Singers Land of the Sun (Ute Nation Utah)
Producer Ian Brennan says, “”Though playing sans electricity, they were the loudest thing I’ve ever recorded. Thirteen singers, ten drummers. Most songs were sung encircling an enlarged drum that was pounded collectively. Others with a corrugate sled more than six feet long. They concluded with each thrumming their own hand-held tom.”
Ty Segall Chrome
A death-defying dive into Ty’s surrealist worlds and dark apocalyptic passages, thumping in the monstrous vein of records like Slaughterhouse and Twins.
Ned Collette Mixed Light
Sometimes delicate and dreamy then warm, dramatic and melancholy, it tumbles into rhythmic, almost psychedelic, melodic pop, before diving into a whirlpool of his most raucous and raw offerings to date.
The Jayhawks Sanctuary Park
Pop melodies, lush three-part harmonies and thoughtful lyrics reflect their genre-defying, category-busting style that dates back to the band’s pioneering days in post-punk Minneapolis when they foretold today’s Americana movement.
Saul Williams Leap Life
The poet’s first album in seven years arrives less like a conventional studio record and more like an invocation assembled in real time — a gathering of spirits, histories, frequencies and unfinished revolutions arranged through voice, rhythm and intuition.
Graham Hunt American Pyramid
It blends a razor-sharp mélange of gnarled power pop, whacked-out slacker rock, occasional gonzo autotune vocal runs, and hectic, formless indie, which underpins psychedelic lyrical musings about the emotional isolation of modern life.
Jim James Wowed Out
Founding member of My Morning Jacket’s first solo recording in eight years, the album sees him transforming a vast archive of music originally composed for two major film-scoring projects in the early 2010s into an audacious, immersive new work of soulful psychedelia.
Bitchin Bajas Isle Peaks
Three cuts, edits and tweaks, electro-acoustic textures of sampled kalimba, field recordings, autoharp and EWI activating quadrants of the Bajas cinematic soniverse.
Flowerovlove Mini Skirt Warrior
The title reflects her alter ego, a version of herself with clothing that serves as armor for a young woman navigating the transition from girlhood to womanhood.
Winter At Sea Hearts EP
Post-rock band with an epic 20-minute suite broken into five movements, though where each section ebbs and flows rests secretly in the minds of the band.
Coloured Clocks Rare Bird
Art pop – melodic songs with sometimes funky grooves, sometimes ambient textures or spacey psychedelia which gives Coloured Clocks it’s signature sound.
Dinosaur Jr. There Near
Created in short, intense bursts over the course of a year at Amherst’s Bisquiteen Studio, There Near was recorded almost entirely by Dino’s core trio—king of the thunder tubs, Murph, human tornado Lou Barlow on bass/vocals and the inimitable J Mascis on guitar/vocals—with a bit of piano and organ work by local master musician, Ken Mauri.
Warby Mystic Powers
Thirteen songs inspired by the likes of Harry Nilsson, The Isley Brothers, Gene Clark and The Stylistics.
Little Big Town It’s A Dying Art
The Grammy winning country band’s 12th album sees them returning to a more analogue, performance-driven approach, prioritising raw takes, emotional intimacy, and the subtle unpredictability of real instruments and real voices in the room.
Upper Wilds Mercury
Fourth album from Brooklyn-based noise rock trio composed of Dan Friel (Parts & Labor), Jason Binnick and Jeff Ottenbacher is their fastest and most scorched sounding.
Zolita Hell’s Belles
A genre-bending concept record split into two distinct sonic worlds, the album balances the softer, more romantic spirit of “BELLES” with the dark, hedonistic pulse of “HELL.”
Starter Car Afterlight
A warm and nostalgic sonic world, clearly a natural progression from Burnett’s childhood surrounded by Sparklehorse, Sufjan Stevens and Wilco.
The Warning Everything’s Falling
The rock band’s latest album includes singles ‘Ego’, ‘Kerosene’ and ‘Ritual.’

Russian Circles Nine
You can go back through their catalogue and find a vast array of broad-ranging influences — the formidable Touch & Go artists of the Midwest, the prog giants of late ‘60s and early ‘70s England, the hypnotic motorik and kosmische grooves of West Germany, and the international underground’s most caustic strains of metal.
Black Door Shadows of a Funerary Gleam
Dutch black metal group introduce a work steeped in nocturnal mysticism, sepulchral grandeur, and the lingering echoes of eons.
Hannah Wicklund War on Women; Calling All Good Men
A gutsy rollercoaster ride that ratchets up the drama, shakes with rage and basks in beauty as it shimmies through rock, soul, blues, folk, gospel and pop.
LA Priest Into The Sky
A set of laser-guided pop songs on which Eastgate sings of love and liberation, swathed in pulsing electronics.

Night Lovell My Blood As The Ink
Rapper and producer with themes of identity, perception and the tension between public persona and personal truth
Asher White Love Aggregates

Exumer Mass Messiah
Thrash outfit whose 11 songs take a more brutal and direct musical approach than on their three previous albums.

A big, hook-heavy record from the Maryland band that leans hard into the punchy, feel-good side of pop-punk and alternative rock.

The album crosses between blues, folk, pop, and country, evoking Loretta Lynn in one song and Lucinda Williams in the next.
Cold Gawd Glory 2 EP
Songs pull in-genre inspiration from shoegaze luminaries like Beach House and DIIV, but also branch out—infusing influences from hip-hop collective BROCKHAMPTON as well as emo rockers Tigers Jaw.
Rusty Shackle Mayfield
Folk-rock band from South Wales, known for their infectious energy, anthemic songs, and genre-blurring sound drawn from folk, rock, and indie roots.
Nephila Huldra
Inspired by the legend of the skogsrå, the mysterious forest spirit of Nordic folklore, HULDRA is a darker, heavier, and more atmospheric step forward for the band, blending towering 70s-inspired riffs, haunting vocal harmonies, and cinematic storytelling into a concept album.
Those Holy Cold Celtic Electronics EP
Half-Irish, half-Welsh Liverpool duo making gothic pop you can move to – the Celtic’s in the texture, not the cliché, the ghost of uilleann pipes and ancient horns lurking in the synths.
