Records of the week
A strong week of new releases, from Soul Jazz Records’ long-deleted Brown Spirits reissues and vital early X-Ray Spex demos, to the shimmering electronic drift of Visible Cloaks and the widescreen return of The Early Years. Future Islands celebrate twenty years with a collection of rarities and alternate versions, while Hannah Peel and Beibei Wang’s The Endless Dance blends synths, percussion and free-flowing rhythms inspired by the natural world and Chinese philosophy. Plus, a surprise new album from The Coral, drawing on vintage reggae and dub tapes while keeping their psychedelic warmth intact. Read →

Staff Picks
A few favourites from the racks this week: Daydream Nation still sounds like the moment underground guitar music cracked wide open; Generic turns punk into something bleak, repetitive and weirdly addictive; Heavyweight Dub Champion is all deep bass pressure and blown-out echo; and People In Sorrow remains one of spiritual jazz’s most patient and devastating recordings.
