The new Laura Marling album Song For Our Daughter is the perfect listen for the current situation in which we find ourselves. A simple, poignant and timely release from a perhaps underrated song-writer. Have you guys checked it out yet? |

The minimal electronic music artist Christian Fennesz, known simply as Fennesz has a new album, Agora. One man, a laptop and headphones. An album of swirling, atmospheric and static. I listened to this on the way back from a gig…the perfect remedy for re-adjusting hearing! |

The band Hookworms from Leeds, England released their 3rd LP, called Microshift. The process was a battle, dealing with mental illnesses, studio floods and heavens know what else. The result is intense, yet more mainstream than earlier work. Very enjoyable! |

The new Mark Lanegan album Gargoyle. Awesomly dark and brooding. Love Deaths Head Tattoo, Emperor and Good bye to Beauty. |
