Ghosteen – Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
Really rather beautiful at times. Improves with every listen.
Netherfield Works EP – Craven Faults
Springhead Works EP – Craven Faults
Nunroyd Works EP – Craven Faults
Lowfold Reworks EP – Craven Faults
Erratics & Uncomforties – Craven Faults
They are all on the ltd edition cd version so definitely worth getting if you ever see one.
Howwouldyoufeelwithoutthatthought 12” - CS & Kreme
Stumbled upon this 2020 release from an Australian duo recently. A corker!
Fireball XL5 – Barry Gray
Are you joking, asked a mate when I text what I was listening to. Er, no!
All Thoughts Fly – Anna Von Hausswolff
Rather dark in a gothic instrumental kinda way.
Africa's Blood – Lee Perry
Apparently this is the first album that was creditied to Perry rather than The Upsetters though in reality it sounds more like the latter.
Leaving Meaning - Swans
My god, this is intense! It actually makes me feel uncomfortable at times. Stunning to be honest. Just noticed that the aforementioned Anna Von Hausswolff features on it.
Rogue's Gallery (Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys) – V/A
I like this on the whole. It includes some unlikely participants – Bryan Ferry unexpected pops and nails his track. I'll just say that Lou Reed sounds totally out of place and leave it at that.
Also...
Isles – Bicep
Shadow Of Fear – Cabaret Voltaire
Vasto 7” - Cabaret Voltaire
Guerilla Grow – Dope
In Parallel 12” – Emika & Paul Frick
Sleepless – Immersion
Roisin Machine – Roisin Murphy
Vertigo Days – The Notwist
Katzenmusik – Michael Rother
Dreaming – Michael Rother
