IpecacReleased 09.05.25And then somehow 20 years have passed and everything is much worse and here are Mclusky, picking up exactly where they left off (like the second [Rec] movie), roaring out of the gate with Unpopular Parts Of A Pig like, I dunno, vaporwave never happened. It’s not entirely business as usual –there’s an unlikely skank to Cops & Coppers, The Digger You Deep has a stoner rock riff, Not All Steeplejacks is taut, lurching, menacing.

KrankyReleased: 02.05.25Canadian sound artist/video game soundtracker/ambient composer loscil has released around 20 albums for the wonderful Kranky label, spanning the 21st century thus far and repeatedly taking the listener to some remarkable places (often literally – there’s a strong sense of location in much of his work).

Wrong Speed RecordsReleased: 04.04.25Despite being a lifer (20 years of music in various incarnations), Thomas House hit a bit of a wall in recent years – stopped playing live, left bands – and hunkered down in Zaragoza. But he kept creating, kept sending music to his Wrong Speed pals, and here’s the result – 45 tracks for his 45th birthday. And it’s remarkable, a triple album of absurd variety and some really killer songs, mostly recorded solo and often in times of difficulty.

Fire RecordsReleased: 04.04.25Almost 50 years into their drunken, spirited campaign against the forces of capital, Mekons are also the only band certain to survive the increasingly imminent nuclear war. This was one recorded in a fairly ad hoc fashion in Valencia, with a thread running through the lyrics about colonialism, imperialism, slavery, seafaring and love in the face of horror.

Thrill Jockey Released: 21.03.25more eaze and claire rousay have made several records together before, reconnecting from time to time as they collaborate and experiment widely. No Floor might be their best. It’s Americana of sorts, and with its ambient stretches and shimmering steel guitar, some of it would sit comfortably alongside artists like SUSS and Chuck Johnson.
