Just had a look at the track listing and line-up. There are some interesting selections/combinations. All good and for a good cause as well.

Stone Roses releasing new materiel this week or next. :thumbsup:

Single got played tonight at 8pm, never heard it though (working!). Did anyone catch it? Any good?

The new Radiohead album is superb.

Roses song is awful. So bad.

A moon shaped pool on the other hand is quite exceptional. One of the best albums I've heard in years

It has a decent intro but agreed didn't sound like them at all.

Was unbelievably bad. Went way beyond worst fears of what it coukd be like.

Liking, parquet courts - human performance
and, whyte horses - pop or not

[Godsahibby]

The tune in itself is cracking, the lyrics to go with it ruin it. Roses and Ian Brown both have always been so clever with song lyrics. These are shocking,

I thought it was decent!

[Green Man]

I heard the Stone Roses single a couple of times last night. Liked the guitar but the lyrics are terrible. Listened to it again and felt the same. Very much a John Squire tune. Then I put on the first album and it's like a different band. The new single is nowhere near the magic of the old stuff.

[Mr White]

I don't mind the roses track. I didn't expect anything better tbh.

[CB_NO3]

The more I have heard it the better it gets. Some of the lyrics are a bit cringey but. "All one family"

I commented somewhere on FB last night that I thought it was like a early 90's B-side. Its like they thought "oh we're doing more shows so I suppose we better bring out something new to play. Does anyone have any old music lying around that we can chuck some lyrics over?"

[Craig_HFC]

I like it. It's definitely a grower too.

It's also better than 99% of the pish that is released nowadays.

[CB_NO3]

The thing with older bands releasing new material is people are going to automatically slate it before they have heard it.

works the other way as well though. If this wasn't a return single from a band of their stature, it wouldn't have been deemed anywhere near worthy enough of the radio play/streams/purchases and column inches its already had since its release.

[CallumLaidlaw]

This is the way I see it. They've brought out a song that may have sounded semi relevant 25 years ago. And the lyrics are awful.

[Tyler Durden]

The lyrics are surprisingly bad.

Just a personal point but I don't like "relevance" being brought into music criticism though. Of course a band that are 30 years on aren't going to be breaking new ground... But what does relevant mean? Who is relevant in music today?

[Pete]

Heard it for the first time tonight and after a couple of listens I thought "what lyrics can be changed to make this about hibs?".

Good music doesn't have to be complicated. It's often simple, chant-like rhythms that are the most appealing as they stick in the head and you can easily recall them. I bet most people were expecting John Lennon but what they actually got was Paul McCartney. They might be slightly disappointed but I bet every one of them can whistle the frog chorus or pipes of peace.

Back to the original thought, this is an effing football chant and after reading the comments on YouTube it looks like others think the same. I'm a bit sozzled and a football fan which is probably who this is supposed to speak to. It will probably get sung along to in pubs as England get pumped by whoever they are playing.

[Sylar]

Heard an advanced release of Architects' new album, 'All of our Gods have Abandoned Us'.

Instant masterpiece! Utterly, utterly relentless!

[Sylar]

Hearing a lot of singles from upcoming albums that have me excited for what's to come!

Beartooth - Hated (from the forthcoming album, Aggressive)
The Amity Affliction - Bring The Weather (from the forthcoming album, This Could Be Heartache)

Blink 182 - Bored to Death (from the forthcoming album California, first album featuring Matt Skiba of the Alkaline Trio)

Not feeling blink at all. Thought the lyrics were woeful and the whole song seemed desperate. It's not blink without Tom. Only strong point was Travis I felt.

Definitely one to check out, Architects - All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us. Quite possibly the best metalcore album written.

One of my favourite bands hopefully this grows on me a bit more it's good but maybe a bit safe.

I haven't heard of most of the artists mentioned on this thread, but I listen to the clips and I've found some stuff I like.
Similarly I doubt that many on here will like the sort of stuff I listen to, but this is my most recent purchase.

The album is called Starless. I've edited out the more gushing phrases from their advert. Brainchild of Paul McGeechan, keyboard player of Love & Money from Glasgow. featuring such collaborators as Paul Buchanan (The Blue Nile), Karen Matheson (Capercaillie), Julie Fowlis and Chris Thomson (The Bathers). McGeechan recorded the album with the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.

I didn't quite get on board with their new single TBH, but Bored To Death retained a classic Blink sound whilst also having a quintessential Alkaline Trio sound too. It's safe, it's not revolutionary and I agree, it lacks Tom, but I liked it.

All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us has scarcely been off my playlist lately - as I said in an above post, 'masterpiece'. Another one I've been listening to relentlessly is Aggressive by Beartooth. Excellent album!

Never heard any of there stuff until Frankie Sinatra. Got sent this as a promotional e-mail,
"So cross over to the 'other side' with us, and hop aboard the 'Indian Valley Line', that imaginary railroad in hobo folklore to that mystical place at the end of the rainbow... Coz they don't live on dreams like us."
Peace and love, always, The Avalanches"
The album is a decent listen but never really gets going for me.

I was the same in that I listened to 'Numero Uno' and wasn't thrilled.. then read a review a couple of weeks back which tried to tell me Numero Uno was the standout. There's a few decent tunes on there - I like Johnny was a friend of mine, I like 'Victoria' until the kids singing comes in and I just can't help thinking it doesn't sound right!!*** edit - was listening again today and it's not Victoria I'm talking about, it's 'young for a day' that his the kids singing!

I like a few of the tunes enough to suspect the album will grow.

They are playing Glasgow Garage in November FYI :aok:

Got the new King Creosote and Hayley Bonar albums today. King Creosote's new one is arguably the best of his career. Hayley Bonar sounds like a slightly more guitar based and much more credible Lana Del Rey but kind of fizzles out of ideas by the time the last 2-3 songs come around. Still a good listen though.

Another shout for the Horrors - V.

Another top album from them. Thought they were pretty terrible after their first album and seeing them live at an NME awards. Then since second album I've got more and more into them and been listening to V all the time in last week. Should get more praise and airtime than they do!

[ClewsHibs]

Yeah, The Horrors - V is probably my aoty so far

[Frazerbob]

Another shout for Gerry Cinnamon, class patter.

Also Hurts new album has a few great tracks but also has one absolute stinker in particluar. I don't think I've hated a particular track from a favourite band so much before. We all have tracks you always skip, then there's this. I won't say which track it is, interested if any other fans have the same opinion. They just can't seem to recapture their form of the first two albums which were brilliant. Albums 3 and 4 have gone off at a bit of a tangent and they're having an identity crisis IMHO.

Another thumbs up for Gerry Cinnamon. I love it when a songwriter really has something to say like he does rather than just chucking a load of loosely connected phrases together. The rhyming of "buckled" and "huckled" is nothing short of inspired genius.


I hadn't heard of him till I read about him here so cheers for the heads up. His gig in Leith in a couple of weeks should be good :greengrin

[patch1875]

Really enjoying Liam Gallagher’s new album. Starts of brilliantly, real swagger about it. Feel it peters out a wee bit, but overall a solid debut solo album.

Pretty average I thought doubt I will be listening to it much.

Noel’s new album seems like it’s going to be interesting from what ive heard so far.

[Craig_HFC]

Yet another shout for Gerry Cinnamon. Brilliant album.

Also enjoying Liam Gallagher's album and The Sherlock's album.

Another couple of bands I'm liking at the moment are The Snuts & The Shambolics (they don't have albums yet).

I would just like to say this thread has given me hours of entertainment, the amount of times Ive read someones recommendations and then spent an evening on you tube and the such like listening to groups, sometimes groups Ive never heard of.

One mate is really talking up Gerry Cinnamon, while another recommended the Snuts (from who I found on related youtube videos... the shambolics).

Have also been told to give the Sherlocks a listen but haven't really got round to it.

New Shed 7 album is really good. Pleasantly surprised that a favourite band from my teenage years can pop back up with an album of that standard 16 years after their last!

[MountcastleHibs]

I know this thread is for albums that are doing it for you, but has anyone listened to Noel Gallagher’s latest effort released today? I reckon there’s only 3 songs I like off of it. The rest are very boring and bland. Forgettable imo.

I like it, think it's the best of his 3 solo albums. The bonus track 'Dead In The Water' is brilliant.

[Mikey]

I bought Noel and Liam's albums today and I'm listening to Noel's just now. Pretty good so far for a first listen.

Both are white vinyl, not sure if that's normal or just an early edition of both.

[MountcastleHibs]

I like Dead in the Water (you can tell it’s one of his solo Oasis tracks), If Love is the Law, Holy Mountain and Keep on Reaching. Have since given it a couple more listens since posting earlier. I think it’s going to take time, but possibly a grower.

[Jim44]

Coldcut x ON U sound "outside the echo chamber

Hard to describe but if you have ever liked either of the artists you won't be disappointed by this bass heavy album.

Also listening to Little Simz, a lot of her stuff is free or donation on the internet, heard her on Giles Peterson show on 6 music and downloaded some of her stuff. She's been touring with the Gorillaz after recording a track with them and getting rave reviews.

Pete Perret’s ‘How the West was Won’ album is brilliant. Pete’s the former singer in ‘new wave band’ The Only Ones - ( ‘Another Girl, Another Planet’ 🎵) - he battled serious drug addiction and now plays in his excellent band that includes his two sons. Well worth a listen.

I’ll try listen to that later today. He’s got some stories to tell!

You’ll not be disappointed with his latest album Mr. W, particularly Jamie’s guitar playing. Jamie dabbled with Pete Docherty in the Libertines years ago and is really impressive now. If you get the chance to see the Pete Perret band live - I’d strongly recommend.

Been a good year for new albums so far.

Of Mice & Men, 'Defy' has been getting played a good bit lately. Surprisingly enjoying it (didn't think I would after the departure of Austin).

Looking forward to Friday, when Don Broco release Technology - they've released about 6 singles from it already, and it sounds like it's going to be sublime.

Saw them in Brixton on Wednesday. Was really looking forward to it but have to be honest - they were very disappointing. Most reviews said the same. More to do with their ‘couldn’t be arsed’ attitude, messing about in stage, 10 mins of nowt between songs coz their computers had to be rebooted.

Hollie Cook Vessel of Love. Top production team and a nice album for a sunny day (which I'm waiting for)

You might be thinking of 'Justifiable Homicide' by Dave Goodman & Friends which featured Cook & Jones on it:

https://eil.com/shop/moreinfo.asp?catalogid=98883

It was about the death of Liddle Towers in police custody. As was 'The Murder of Liddle Towers' by the Angelic Upstarts. Dave Goodman was the Pistols live sound engineer and produced their early demos.

And yes, new Prof's album is a cracker. Steve Jones features on a few tracks as well (including 'Going, Going, Gone' mentioned above). Hope to see them live at some point - they're supporting Billy Idol for a few gigs in England but not up here.
