Yo La Tengo – This Stupid World [BUY/INFO] 40 years in and indie rock’s quietest loud band have released one of their leanest and most concise records in years.

Modern Nature – No Fixed Point In Space [BUY/INFO] No Fixed Point In Space, the third full-length album by Jack Cooper’s Modern Nature, takes the palette of sound and themes that were honed on 2021’s Island Of Noise and launches them into an expansive world of openness and vivid technicolour. Certain moorings - woodwind, percussion, strings and Cooper’s...

Andrew Hung is an artist known for his collaborations (Fuck Buttons, Beth Orton), film soundtracks (The Greasy Strangler, An Evening with Beverly Luff Linn) and his own music (Realisationship, Devastations).

As another year of ups and downs stutters to an end I've been trying to wrangle some of the best music that's been released in our (near) 9 years in to a definitive order. Of course, putting an objective art form in to an order of 'best' is a fools errand, so I make no claims that one is better than another, just these are records I love.
