A transcendental track. 

Automatic – Is It Now? 

Is It Now? Out Soon Via Stones Throw 

French pop sound with English lyrics.

Out Now Via Koke Plate 

Really enjoying the way this song sounds like it’s melting because currently we’re all turning waxy in London in the heat. 

Dag Och Natt – Falling The Same Way 

Years and Years Out August 15 Via Labrador Records 

A chill and wavy one. 

Tops – Falling on my Sword

Smooth energy to get you through. 

Lathe of Heaven – Aurora 

Aurora Out August 29 Via Sacred Bone Records 

Post-punk smoothyness and we ain’t talkin Orange Julius ovah-heya-neetha. 

Will Paquin – I Work So Hard

Ghostwoman – Levon 

Civilized World Out September 5 Via Full Time Hobby

Great primal beats. 

Case Oats – In a Bungalow 

Last Missouri Exit Out August 22 Via Merge Records 

A song to listen to whilst doing the chores, that isn’t a chore to listen to.

A throwback to the ‘80s, done with a bit of class. 

Daffo – Habit 

Where the Earth Bends Out September 26 Via Concord Records

A great toe tapping tune. 

Later Youth – Statuesque 

Living History Out Now Via Sideways Saloon

‘Later Youth’ is a great line for a retiring high school teacher to end their speech on. Here is some unrelated music to that comment.

Fresh new jingles from the vaults of Nosferatu 

Singles That Mingle

With Captain Stavros

Cutthroat Out September 5 Via Dead Oceans

Motherfucker, I was born to die. Might as well jam this tune before you kick-it and kick-it along with it.

McKinley Dixon – Magic, Alive!

Magic, Alive! Out now Via City Slang

That off the hook sax is certainly magic, enjoy this blasting ditty.

Hand Habits – Wheel of Change

Blue Reminder Out August 22 Via Fat Possum

A perfect mash up of grunge rock and clangey pianey, seamless unlike this sentence. Wheel of Change, a self-reflexive metamorpheso-piece-o?

Eterna – Ants EP

Ants Out Now Via Section1

Here’s a moody broody EP that changes tact just in time to remain in the conscious instead of subconscious.

Panic Shack – Thelma & Louise

Panic Shack Out July 18 Via Brace Yourself Records

The moment you’ve all been waiting for, the debut full-length album, is nearly here. Have one more appetiser before the main course.

King Princess – RIP KP

Girl Violence Out September 12 Via Section1

A playful and catchy ditty with an edge.

The heat is already way up but pop this on and it’s about to get melty up in this hizzy.

The Sick Man of Europe Out Now Via The Leaf Label

Monotone but sounds like skeletons playing the guitar or something like it.

No One Was Driving the Car Out September 5 Via Epitaph

Kinda getting Black Country, New Road vibes from this one so slanging it your way.

Debby Friday – Lipsync

The Starrr of the Queen of Life Out August 1 Via Sub Pop

Confident in its own stride, bad track.

This is our favourite on the list this time around.

Singles That Mingle

With Captain Stavros

Florist – Jellyfish 

Jellywish Out Now Via Double Whammy

If a song could take on the physical form of a butterfly and land on your arm in a ray of sunshine, this track would be it. 

ANIKA – Oxygen 

Abyss Out Now Via Sacred Bones

The bass pulls you in like a rolling tin on a cashier’s conveyor belt. 

Daffo – Quick Fix 

Pest Crisis Kit Out Now Via Concord Records

Sounds like auto-tune, but not? Ain’t no quick fixes with this track. 

The Pale White – Final Exit 

The Big Sad Out Now Via End of the Wall

A track that does what it says on the tin, which is sound lovely. No surprises, but no letdowns either. 

Bruit – The Intoxication of Power 

The Age of Ephemerality Out Now Via Pelagic

Bruitish, but not brutal, would recommend. 

Mamalarky – Won’t Give Up 

Hex Key Out Now Via Epitaph 

The only reason we’re not giving up is because we cannot wait till they make it across the pond to entertain us live. 

Farao – Dream Ride 

Out Now Via Marvaða 

Probably the only person we would not throw tomatoes at for riding with the top down in the middle of winter. Keep warm with this ditty. 

Tan Cologne – Cloud of Mirrors 

Unknown Beyond Out June 20 Via Labrador Records

Really dreamy tune, wake up and listen! 

The Sick Man of Europe – Obsolete
