THRaKaTTKeR’s albums of 2025: A 🧵

Here, I’ll be posting a few words about each album released this year that has stayed with me. As I move through them it won’t be in any sort of ranking, more like chronological order of when I heard them.
Any #MetalSky heads know if Gilead Media/Yellow Eyes have a UK distributor? Those import prices are eye watering 😭

Last year I made the mistake of leaving it too late before I dug out my MR James collection and various British Library 🎄 👻 📚 prior to the seasonal festivities. So this year I am starting in November.

Great existential questions of the times: why do our daughter and son never sleep in on a weekend?!

New media campaign for a Labour-Reform coalition!?! 🤔
To think that someone actually illustrated all this for a fraction of a second background frame ⛵️

This is serendipity incarnate. My comrade @michaelshallcross.bsky.social and I have, for the last month, being holding our own Maccathon: listening to his entire post-Fabs catalogue while ranking the albums and pulling favourite songs for a long list, ultimately to be honed into a Macca Top 50…
OFF THE GROUND is one year old. 🥳 “…a must read for serious Beatles fans.” 👇👍✌️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @reaktionbooks.bsky.social

“Fireworks, darkness
Cascading with fireworks
Fireworks, can't read it
Fireworks, can't fathom it
Fireworks
Coming up to the dawn here
What are those burnt embers
It's fireworks, smoldering
It's fireworks, cascading in the sky”

Me and my now wife met 15 years ago today on a blind date set up by a mutual friend. A rainy Tuesday night in Shopkeeper’s in Leeds, 2/11/10. I lucked out that night. And I’m more in love with her now than ever. If we have a “song”, it’s this! Laura is The One. You’re so great and I love you.

This is the inevitable outcome that the normalisation of racism online, and also by the media and political class has propagated. The genie is out of the bottle, and we need to figure out how we get in back in and quickly
Racism towards nurses has hit a 'crisis point' in the UK. That's the stark warning from the nursing and midwifery regulator.

It comes as a report from the Nurses' Union finds that incidents of racism have increased by 55% in the last three years.

This amazing article from @vic-parsons.bsky.social via @wearequeeraf.com shows the absolute criminal state of trans healthcare in the UK.

Scotland has a 224 year wait for a first appointment. Yes, you read that right.

I love how this new @agriculturemusic.bsky.social album sleeve echoes the psychedelic eroticisms of those classic My Bloody Valentine singles aesthetics.

Excited to release Mark Fell’s ‘Psychic Resynthesis’ today. This feels like a landmark album for Mark, a perfect realisation of his unique methods of cross-discipline collaboration, which ties up many threads of his musical history in one enigmatic statement. frozenreeds.bandcamp.com/album/psychi...
