This band are truly wonderful.The previous album blew me away and this one does the same with dreamy vocals pulsing bass lines & gazy guitar sounds .The fact it was my most played album too says it all.Also looks stunning too.

Sister Ray Davies
Holy Island

Stumbled across this by accident . Lucky me as it's an outstanding piece of work . Iona and Aiden are as good as any songs released this year.
The album creates the same feelings as being on Holy Island itself. #sisterraydavies

Another album that just grows and grows with each listen . Again stunning album cover and loud melodic songs to go with it . Faves being Saudade and Nu Burn.

The underground youth
Decolletage.

Another strong album. Atmospheric , a bit like a soundtrack to an imaginary film.

Microtonic

Loved this album when it came out and would have been higher had there not been better albums since . Still sounds partly shoegazey with added electronic beats .

Suede
Antidepressants

Another fantastic album from a band that just delivers with every album they release . Took a bit of time to get it hence why it's slightly further blown than it should be . Looking forward to hearing it live in Feb
