Previous Albums Of The Day

No.1587 26/01/2021

The 2nd LP by British post-punk band Shame, Drunk Tank Pink, is a more accomplished than their debut Songs of Praise. An LP to turn up to eleven from one of the most exciting bands around at the moment. Intense LP.

No.1239 26/01/2020

The third album by the American dream pop duo Beach House, Teen Dream is 10 years old today! The LP was a critic’s favourite back in 2010. Fantastic arrangements and melodies, wonderful vocals from Victoria Legrand. Love Norway and Lover of Mine.

No.873 26/01/2019

Last year Klaus Passegger reached out to me regarding one of his songs. I liked what I heard, and waited for an album, which has now seen the light of day, called Reconnected. Klaus describes his sound as guitar driven instrumental rock in the style of Steve Vai. Give it a listen. klauspassegger.com

No.508 26/01/2018

The Nick Lowe album Dig My Mood is 20 years old today. I hear so much influence in Dig My Mood from Johnny Cash, to Stax Records, to Bowie and country music. Lowe is an artist that listens, considers and interprets in his own unique way. Love You Inspire Me. A fan of Mr Lowe? nicklowe.com

No.143 26/01/2017

Sometimes by City and Colour is one of my all-time favourites. The LP contains songs of heartbreak and personal experiences, delivered with Dallas Green’s angelic voice and hypnotic acoustic guitar. So far removed from Green’s other band Alexisonfire’s post-hardcore sound. cityandcolour.com
