New Albums that are "doing it" for you.

Liking the new Coral album, Sea Of Mirrors.

It’s quite chilled but not quite what I’d hoped it would be based on how they described it “ Combining their love of 60s and 70s Western cinema, baroque pop, Love, Scott Walker, Sergio Leone, Lee Hazelwood and Ennio Morricone. Was hoping for more of a The Good The Bad & The Ugly and Once Upon A Time In The West sound.

New Mikes Kane album is also ok. Has its moments but not as good as his earlier albums.

Is that really how they described it?

I'm about to give it a listen!

So it’s an ok album but not quite western enough..

Gunfight at the Ok Coral album?

Very good 👍

I've listened to it now and it is ok, but it's not getting me excited about seeing them on tour again.

It's definitely chilled without any stand out tracks (none for me yet, anyway) unless Sea of Mirrors counts because it's as dreary a track as I've heard for some time!

6.5 out of 10 but I will give it another listen or 2.

If you're needing a spaghetti western type fix, turn your speakers up and give The Lonely Shepherd by Gheorghe Zamfir a blast!

New Teenage Fanclub album, Nothing Lasts Forever, is good. Quintessentially Teenage Fanclub, so they’re not pushing any boundaries, but they do what they do well.

Loving Kula Shaker’s new album, “Natural Magick”. Parts of it are a bit like if The LA’s we’re Indian and not Scouse.

Also got Cast’s new album, but not had a chance to listen to it yet.

Steve Mason Brothers and sisters. Saw him in St Luke's in Glasgow.

Just listened to Cast’s new album, “Love Is The Call”. Very good. Quintessentially Cast so not pushing any musical boundaries, good nonetheless though.

New Paul Weller album announced today, “66”, out in May. Quite like the track released with the announcement.

Loved their first album, not so keen on their subsequent releases. Shocked to discover it was released 28 years ago!

Enjoying Nadine Shah’s new album.

[degenerated]

Blasted by Mean Jeans, musically it's much the same as their previous outings and it's pretty standard Ramones influenced pop punk. What it is though is 30 minutes of super catchy and fun songs.

It is surprisingly good, probably their best album since their debut.

I went to see John Power at Assai last week and I bought the record as much for a ticket to see that short set and get some records signed. But I've not really stopped listening in the past week. It's brilliant.

Light a candle for the lonely by Ghost Work, just arrived today and it's had quite a few spins already. Indie rock/post punk from guys that were previously in Seaweed and Snapcase amongst others.
Really enjoying this one.

I’ve been listening to it a lot. I actually think it’s their best album.

On that theme, not sure if it’s a sign of getting old or bands aging like a fine wine. I thought, like Cast’s new album, the last Manics album, the second to last Teenage Fan Club album and last Kula Shaker albums, as examples, were arguably those bands best albums. Is that a sign of growing old with a band(s) or simply good bands keeping up their quality?

Cock Sparrer new album Hand on Heart, sadly it's also their last album, has been on pretty much constant since it came out Friday.

It's a brilliant album. Going to see them in Glasgow at the weekend. Last time I saw them was at Blackpool after The Dammed pulled out of Rebellion and they were a bit rusty. Expecting them to be back on form on Saturday.

I'm gonna pass because I'm not keen on O2. Last time I saw them was back in 2017 at liquid rooms when forever came out. I've seen them a ton of times since they got back together in 90s and they've always been top notch. Think it was the guilty as charged tour I saw them first.

Best one was at a punk festival in Bergara in the Basque country in 2000. We were drinking with them the night before their show and and next night they came on and went "we're cock sparrer from London, this one's called running riot and it's for the lads from Hibs." Quite a lot of puzzled west ham hooligans and assorted skinheads around us . 46-47-Holidays_in_the_sun_tokikom_700x700.jpg

Purchased on vinyl the re-release of Flowered Up’s A Life With Brian. A quality trip down memory lane.

Thanks for recommending it. I was never aware of this band. It's superb and deserves many listens. it is a pity they only released one album.

[MKHIBEE]

Krissy Matthews is about to release a new album, “ Krissy Matthews and friends”, 3 hours of blues recorded with numerous stalwarts of the blues scene. He is playing at Bannermans on May 30, you could do worse than spend a couple of hours watching a guitarist reckoned to be among the best in the country right now

[Frazerbob]

The K's debut album, I Wonder If The World Knows?. Released a couple of weeks ago and very enjoyable.

[patch1875]

Another 90’s revisit and another band who done one amazing album then disappeared.

Listening to the new Arab Strap album, "I am totally fine with it don't give a **** anymore". It is rather good

I know the thread is for new albums, but I relistened to the first Glasvegas album.

It really is superb. His lyrics are so vivid (is that the right adjective?) and poignant as are the subjects he deals with.

I could probably do without the tracks "Stabbed" and "Go Square Go" is a bit throwaway but that's just my opinion. Apart from that, I think it's a masterpiece.

I played it endlessly at 1st .listened to it all again after about 2 years,fantastic
