tUnE-yArDs – I Can Feel You Creep Into My Private Life
Officially now a duo, Merrill Garbus is joined by long-time collaborator Nate Brenner on this exploration of race, politics, intersectional feminism and environmental prophecies all to the tune of their upbeat and decidedly earwormy dance music.

The Skids - Burning Cities
Following on from last year's rollicking comeback tour, Dunfermline's finest return with their first album in a mere 37 years. Jobson's voice is as strong as ever and the combination of Bruce and Jamie Watson create a sound close to that of the late Stuart Adamson.
The Skids - Burning Cities
First Aid Kit - Ruins
Fourth album from Klara and Johanna Söderberg maintains their winning formula of deft arrangements built around their entrancing close harmonies. The songs here are folk-based with the odd foray into something more grandiose.
First Aid Kit - Fireworks
The Go! Team – Semicircle
Those wide-eyed optimists are back with an album inspired by the notion of a school marching band gone rogue, chucking away their sheet music to blast out Northern soul stompers or Japanese indie-pop swooners or old-school hip-hop jams. Still sounds pretty much like The Go! Team.
