avid Bowie – No Plan EP
Three tracks from the Blackstar sessions that didn't make it onto the album finally get a stand alone release with the CD out on Friday and the vinyl version following in April. Good enough in their own right and given additional heft with the inclusion of Lazarus.
David Bowie – No Plan
Brian Jonestown Massacre – Don't Get Lost
Sixteenth album from Anton Newcombe – one of the most prolific men in rock Regular band members are joined byEmil Nikolaisen from Serena-Maneesh and Pete Fraser (The Pogues/New Young Pony Club) on saxophone with vocal contributions from Tim Burgess (Charlatans), Tess Parks and Shaun Rivers. Expect some divergence from the house style of shoegaze/psychedelia.

Dirty Projectors – Dirty Projectors
Seventh album from Dirty Projectors includes ‘Up In Hudson’, their elegy to the Obama years, the indie rock generation and to a relationship. Over the course of nine verses and almost eight minutes, the lyrics locate David Longstreth & his band in the recent past like a millennial Blood On The Tracks.
Dirty Projectors – Up In The Hudson
D.O.A. – Fucked Up Donald
Irresistible reworking of their 1981 pithy classic anti-Reagan number.
