New Tracks - what's caught our eye...

Track of the Month

In this section - new for 2019 - we pick out our track of the month. Now it's very important that in order to save ourselves from an abusive barrage of complaints and smart-arsed comments, these tracks may NOT have necessarily been released during the month in question. It just so happens to be the track that's tickled our fancy most during that period..OK??

March 2019 - STRAND OF OAKS - Weird Ways

Since 2014's HEAL, Timothy Showalter has excelled with hia Strand Of Oaks album releases and Eraserland continues the trend strongly. Pick of the bunch is six minute opener Weird Ways, a colossal track that builds in intensity throughout as his band mates - namely My Morning Jacket this time round - gradually pitch in to create a sparkling gem.

February 2019 - FOALS - In Degrees

Foals albums these days are eagerly awaited items and delirious fans will undoubtedly herald 2019 as The Year Of Foals, with two collections promised. The first, Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Pt 1, yielded three singles before it was released but In Degrees was surprisingly not one of them; we think it's the best of the lot, though.

January 2019 - THE TWILIGHT SAD - VTr

The Twilight Sad's 5th album dropped during January, and lifted from that album is a track initially released in November 2018, VTr. It epitomises everything that's good about this excellent Scottish band.
