Sucker free city

Steve Queralt’s Swallow drifts like a twilight shoegaze diary, half-remembered and fully felt. Wu-Tang & Mathematics’ Black Samson delivers pulpy storytelling and razor-sharp boom-bap in full cinematic style with all the remaining members in place. Cosey Fanni Tutti’s 2t2 pulses with ghostly textures, sculpting memory into metallic ambience. Phantom Island finds King Gizzard in dub-soaked, blissed-out jam mode, like Neu! washed in warm saltwater. Holden & Zimpel’s The Universe Will Take Care Of You blends jazz minimalism with spiritual drift, meditative but restless. The Budos Band’s VII brings molten soul-funk with heavy grooves and scorched brass, like a chase scene gone psychedelic. Not pictured but also out today; Lindstrøm’s Sirius Syntoms is a glistening return to cosmic disco, full of shimmer, propulsion and joy. Comet Gain’s Letters To Ordinary Outsiders feels like a scrapbook of lost youth and indiepop fury, scrappy and sincere.
