First Watch: Rhye ‘The Fall’

I featured this band not too long ago and now there’s a lovely video to a very sexy track. I really am in love with Rhye. Album coming in 2013, single out November 12th.

First Watch: Karin Park ‘Thousand Loaded Guns’

Im surprised with myself for not mentioning Karin Park on this site before, because I do love her. She ticks all my boxes. This is her new song, it’s all Scandinavian and epic, just the way I like it. The voice is a little Fever Ray, don’t you think?

First Watch: Everything Everything ‘Cough Cough’

This is literally hot off the press, having been made record of the week by BBC Radio 1‘s Zane Lowe just now. The idiosyncratic and innovative sonic force that is Everything Everything are back with their follow up album to 2010’s debut, ‘Man Alive’.

Mad, tribal, epic and brilliant is how I’d describe their new single, ‘Cough Cough’ out October 14th. New album ‘Arc’ out January 14th 2013.

First Watch: Patrick Wolf ‘Sundark and Riverlight’

One of my favourite kids, Patrick Wolf, is back with a new album. ‘Sundark & Riverlight’ celebrates 10 years of Wolf making music and consists of re-recordings new arrangements and updated lyrics of his songs from his last five albums. Totally self produced and arranged, the songs are grouped into two stories, “Sundark” an album of more his more solitary darker material and “Riverlight” songs of hope and relationship.
