March just keeps giving. Another week and another rundown of all the things coming soon to Drift.
A pretty big week full - with some epic (and surprising) returns - a couple of corking Dinked Editions and at least a handful here that we'll be playing all year long.
Arcade Fire
WE
Columbia
WE is the eagerly anticipated sixth studio album by Arcade Fire. Produced by Nigel Godrich, Win & Reìgine, it was recorded in multiple locales and is sounding pretty epic! Don't miss that White vinyl pressing.
William Basinski & Janek Schaefer
. . . on reflection
Temporary Residence Ltd
A new five-song collaboration that has been eight years in the making. Absolutely stunning.
Ghost Power
Ghost Power
Duophonic Super 45s
Self-titled full length LP following the super-limited edition 7" singles. The production just drips with aural richness, absolutely love this already.
Astrel K
Flickering i
Duophonic Super 45s
Another killer release on Duophonic Super 45s, with Astrel K, also known as Rhys Edwards of Ulrika Spacek. Gloriously weird, classic pop vibes, analogue tones and bold new arrangements. Love it.
Japanese Television
Space Fruit Vineyard
Tip Top Recordings
A squidgy and woozing new LP from Japanese Television, the original space surfers!
Monophonics
Sage Motel
Colemine Records
Ultra-rich new concept LP from the psychedelic soul band. Has to be said, Kelly Finnigan can do no wrong.
Party Dozen
The Real Work
Temporary Residence Ltd
The Australian duo that seriously do sound like a dozen. Pounding new LP to really get the blood boiling. Godfather of all things wild - Nick Cave - pops up on guest vocals too.
Yaya Bey
Remember Your North Star
Bid Dada
Full length debut from Yaya Bey, one of R&B’s most exciting storytellers.
Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway
Crooked Tree
Nonesuch Records
An all new, all old-sounding Country set from acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Molly Tuttle. Good vibes.
We announced two new Dinked Editions this week.
Mush
Down Tools
Memphis Industries
Dinked Edition 183
A wonky and grooving return from the Leeds art-rock group.
Vintage Crop
Kibitzer
Upset The Rhythm
Geelong’s favourite sons return this summer with their much-anticipated fourth album. We love this band, jacked up and super fun!
Gentle Sinners
These Actions Cannot Be Undone
Rock Action
A new project by James Graham of The Twilight Sad and Aidan Moffat of Arab Strap!
Also announced this week, forthcoming releases from; Kokoroko, 700 Bliss, Cave In, Liam Gallagher, Flasher, Lucius, The Box Masters, MUNA, Bob Moses, Sniffany and the Nits, Daniel Villarreal, Blood, Hollie Cook, Bait, M Huncho, Muse and Arooj Aftab.
We also have an excellent set of reissues to include a couple of choice Terry Allen and the Panhandle Mystery Band LPs via Paradise of Bachelors, Neil Young's Official Release Series Vol.4, The Silvertones, DADAWAH, ALT and Frightened Rabbit.
Worth flagging that we are starting to run low on Douglas MacIntyre and Grant McPhee's Hungry Beat book, that one is a scorcher!
