Leaving you wanting more: new music 2024

[Jobi1]

One of my more enjoyable live discoveries of last year, Lilith Ai, dropped this scuzzy little number on New Year's Day, decent enough way to start the musical year...

[Sits]

I listened to that today, really nice. Very late 70s-early 80s “new wave” including a couple of moments which reminded me of Blondie.

Started listening to a bit of 6Music the other night and heard 'Black Mould' by Irish band Stupid Son. Technically this is a 2023 release, but I think they are releasing a debut EP shortly and they played a 6 Music session last night. Hopefully they'll tour the UK soon.

6Music Session available about an hour in here https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001v1x8 - some chat with the band before that around the 40 minute mark.

One of my personally most anticipated releases for ages, Marika Hackman's new album (her first album of new material since 2019) is finally out today, and it's as wonderful as I hoped, absolutely love it. She's one of my favourite (perhaps actually my favourite) artists of the last decade, so admittedly I'm slightly biased.

Spotify found me this from last year but in my first week of 2024 Discover. It is very early 2000s.

[Toby Gymshorts]

Bob Vylan. Amazing.

Sounds more early- mid 90s to me. Sort of thing we'd get battered to after getting back from clubbing.

[Jah Womble]

Quite enjoy the messiness of Stupid Son - Dublin seems to have become 'the' hotbed for guitar bands over the past half-decade.

Bob Vylan are an interesting act as well.

Bob Vylan are great. I've only seem them once at Camden Underworld, but have a mate who I think has seen every UK tour (and at Rockaway Beach this month). They were in session on Craig Charles 6Music show last week for those that are interested. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001v1ys

Anyone like their techno played mostly with live brass? New single from MEUTE out this week...

Excellent, cheers RobW!

Swimming Bell's new album is out now. I had not hear them (her??) before. The "Sharon Van Etten meets Laurel Canyon" descriptions seem fitting.

[Walt Flanagans Dog]

Thanks for that, right up my Blvd.

Kim Gordon's new song is really impressive on the first couple of listens:

[Patrick Thistle]

Newish anyway. The Dead South - A Little Devil

[RobW]

The superb Dog Unit have announced their new album release date and it is available to pre-order. Two songs off it are available to listen to now https://thisisdogunit.bandcamp.com/album/at-home

Way cool!

[RobW]

I admit to knowing nothing of Oisin Leech, but it seems that he's had a pretty varied career. I saw Spencer Cullum recommend this though, and it is indeed lovely.

New Justice album, Hyperdrama coming out in April. Includes the above collaboration with Tame Impala and Generator

[danielmak]

A new one from Sunny Day Real Estate:

[Jobi1]

Gruff Rhys's new album is quite pleasant...

[Cousin Boneless]

Gruff Rhys's new album is quite pleasant...

Literally listened to this for the first time two hours ago. It's very good indeed.

I can also recommend Bill Ryder-Jones and Alkaline Trio's new albums which I recommend also.

[Jobi1]

Really enjoying NewDad's debut album, out last week. A fair few of the tracks were on singles last year, but it's nice to hear the full collection.

[Bored Of Education]

Great tips on here,cheers. The new Black Grape album sounds great especially’Milk’

[Jobi1]

Just got round to listening to the much-hyped debut album from the Last Dinner Party. The hype, it appears, is justified; really great stuff.
