On the eve of another Record Store Day, we're looking back at what was a hugely impressive week for the new announcements.

Debuts, full-debuts, huge returns and some of the most exciting reissues to dive into in yonks. Week 24 had it going on.

Dry Cleaning
Stumpwork
4AD

Really delighted to have Dry Cleaning back and in fierce form, too. The artwork... Wow!



Lambchop
The Bible
City Slang

Alongside Low perhaps, are there any other bands evolving at such a thrilling rate in their career as Lambchop? Just amazing and Kurt's voice sounds incredible. 



Jockstrap
I Love You Jennifer B
Rough Trade Records

Debut LP from the much-hyped Jockstrap. We've heard it, it's bloody good!




Marina Allen
Centrifics
Fire Records

An AMAZING voice, really can't stop raving about Marina. A big album for the end of the year around Drift.



Whitney
SPARK
Secretly Canadian

A swooning and poppy new LP from the duo.



Moreish Idols
Float EP
Speedy Wunderground

Tell you what, this is the real deal! So excited about this lot. Ferocious stuff.



Marlon Williams
My Boy
Dead Oceans

The long-awaited third studio LP from New Zealand singer-songwriter Marlon Williams. Another great voice.



The Beths
Expert In A Dying Field
Carpark

Shimmering third studio LP from the Auckland band. Really has the hooks, great stuff.
