King Krule // Rock Bottom
Returning to streaming sites after some time away (due to a legal complication from interpolating lyrics from The Streets’ ‘Empty Cans’, if rumours are to be believed), 2012’s ‘Rock Bottom’ takes us way back to King Krule’s rough ‘n’ ready punk-soul beginnings.
Mandy, Indiana // Sicko! (ft. billy woods)
There are some collaborations that we hadn’t dared to dream of. Overblown mainstays Mandy, Indiana and billy woods have come together for the beguiling chaos of ‘Sicko!’ – lifted from Mandy, Indiana’s unignorable new album URGH (out now via Scared Bones).
Ulrika Spacek // Weights & Measures
London’s Ulrika Spacek exist within the murky meeting point between art-rock and electronic production, and their fourth album EXPO – out today – is well worth checking out.
Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever // Sunburned in London
One of planet Earth’s most underrated guitar bands, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever have returned with their first taste of new music since 2022. Newly signed to I OH YOU/Mushroom Music, ‘Sunburned In London’ sees the Aussie group at their jangled, sun-soaked best.
Hiding Places // Waiting
It’s been a long time coming but Brooklyn quartet Hiding Places have announced the April arrival of debut album The Secret To Good Living with ‘Waiting’. Think MJ Lenderman’s grunge-informed siblings.
Eilish Constance // 1 plus 1
Teenage songwriter/producer Eilish Constance creates simplistic indie cuts which are far greater than the sum of their parts, and ‘1 plus 1’ packs a charm which is impossible to resist. Catch her on support duties during Acopia‘s US tour if you happen to be stateside this Spring.
