This Week's Releases

Arctic Monkeys - AM (Domino/EMI)

The indie rock faves mix it up a bit on their new record. While the sound is still very much classic Arctic Monkeys, the better tracks are the ones that venture into different territory for the band. Looks like they've conquered their previous black and white style of breakneck fast thrashing or down tempo middling.

London Grammar - If You Wait (Dew Process/Universal)

The buzz surrounding London Grammar is big. The comparisons to The xx have been thrown around numerous times and they're hard to deny but this is an intriguing, charming release it its own right. You will definitely be hearing more about these three in the very near future.

Summer Flake - You Can Have It All (Rice Is Nice)

If you're looking for a refreshing take on a indie, grunge-esque sound, look no further than Summer Flake, real name Steph Crase. The former No Through Road and Batrider member has delivered her debut solo release and we've been streaming it all week on theMusic for your listening pleasure.

Violent Soho - Hungry Ghost (Liberation)

The Brissy band give us their first album in three years and their first of all-new material in five, so it's safe to say a whole lot of people are keen to hear Hungry Ghost. Their sound is as refined as ever and this appears to be the record that will put to bed any notion that they're a one-trick pony.
