Really strong first listen. I loved a lot of the record. Can't wait to give it a few more spins and let it open up a bit more.

The title track feels like a Lucy Dacus song, especially lyrically. Love seeing the influence of Boygenius slipping in.

Fontaines DC teasing/announcing a new record called Dopamine Chamber for release in 2026!

insane amount of good albums this year, recently heard about Cult of Luna, Mastodon and (fingers crossed) Chvrches too

It's been a pretty strong year for sure.

Chat Pile
Queens of the Stone Age
Westside Cowboy
Julia Jacklin
Ty Segall
The War On Drugs
Beck
Fontaines DC
Mastodon
Alabama Shakes

Still plenty of good stuff to come.

hoping to love the Chat Pile, I wasn't super into the last one but their debut is fantastic

Give the new record by Truck Violence a go - you'll probably like it.

I'm not sure if anyone here is into dancey pop shit, but if you are, the new Icona Pop, "Ritual", is a ton of fun and gorgeously atmospheric in places in a 90s trance way

Orville Peck's new stuff is good as always, looking forward to that one

I never thought I'd find myself enjoying an Enter Shikari album this much but here we are

VERY much looking forward to the new Cult of Luna

The first single from the new Fontaines DC record is very satisfying.

tis

More new songs streaming from Beck, Gang of Youths and Chat Pile.

Not to forget that FOV exclusive song Dimly Lit Cadaver from the mighty Earth Tongue, my favourite NZ two piece. They are so fucking good.

I'm sorry, I thought you said GANG OF YOUTHS!
