Ohh very promising !!

Looking forward to listen to it

looking forward to The Smile, Wild Pink, and I’ve got a little interest in that Geordie Greep album.

oh, and The Hard Quartet.

The Greep material I've heard is a little too much - I can't imagine listening to that daily.

I haven't had a lot of time with The Hard Quartet record but what I've heard sounds terrific, the first four or five tracks are pretty much faultless. Basically a can't miss given the pedigree of the players.

yeah, I don’t think Greep would be a daily listen. Too anxious for my liking. Just a sprinkle.

Tour of Australia announced today, bought my ticket five minutes ago.

There are also new albums from Godspeed You! Black Emperor and A Place To Bury Strangers out today - busy week for new music.

i'm digging this Hard Quartet album.

it might as well be a Jicks record.

This record is super compelling. I really enjoyed that first listen. Can't wait to give it more love.

Manning Fireworks is... Not good. It's time to admit that Lederman just isn't for me.

It makes me really regret not seeing his show last time he was in town. Won't make that mistake twice.

No love for Wristwatch?

I'd have to go back and listen to remember which one that is and what it sounds like. Nothing jumped out at my, though.

Over the last couple weeks I've been listening to a lot of Charly Bliss, and their latest album particularly. Really fresh power pop with super catchy melodies and some moments of real emotional poignancy. Eva's voice is kind of a barrier for entry for some but I've always liked weird voices.

Listened to this today. I can’t quite place where this seems so familiar but I enjoyed it.

Listened to half of Wild Pink ´s new album and yes, pretty cool

Almost through Billy Strings’ Highway Prayers. I usually have a hard time listening to his studio albums but this one is really nice. Less pure traditional bluegrass, and while not as wild as his live album from this year, there’s a lot more range in this than I was expecting.

Not sue how but i listened to Tony Vaz´s first album called Pretty Side of the Ugly Life, it has a Alex G vibe and its a pleasant listen.
