An excellent first week of 2022 for new preorder listings. Here is your weekly rundown.
Father John Misty
Chloë and The Next 20th Century
Bella Union
Father John Misty is back in fine voice, with brilliant production from Jonathan Wilson and some pretty special arrangements by Drew Erickson.
Widowspeak
The Jacket
Captured Tracks
A sort of companion piece to the band's excellent and critically acclaimed fifth album Plum. Really great flow.
Monodrama
Mndrmooaa
Everlast
Dark, rich and hard to describe. Contemporary jazz x sonics x textures. Great stuff.
Warmduscher
At The Hotspot
Bella Union
Produced by Joe Goddard and Al Doyle of Hot Chip, At The Hotspot is the return of supergroup Warmduscher with new label partner, Bella Union.
Cassels
Gut Feeling
God Unknown
Third LP from Oxfordshire brothers Jim and Loz Beck. Intense and driving, got a feeling this'll be a breakout year for them.
Binker and Moses
Feeding The Machine
Gearbox Records
The long-awaited 3rd studio album by semi-free jazz duo Binker and Moses, vanguards of London's jazz scene.
Half Man Half Biscuit

The fifteenth album by Wirral-based rock band Half Man Half Biscuit, via the band's own R. M. Qualtrough label.

Joe Henderson
Inner Urge
Blue Note
1966 boppin' LP from saxophonist Joe Henderson.
