CHAI "WINK" (SUB POP) SP1420 CASS/ LP/ CDMay 21 street date. Since breaking out in 2018, CHAI have been associated with explosive joy. At the core of theirmusic, CHAI have upheld a stated mission to deconstruct the standards of beauty and cuteness that can be sooppressive in Japan. Like all musicians, CHAI spent 2020 forced to rethink the fabric of their work and lives. ButCHAI took this as an opportunity to shake up their process and bring their music somewhere thrillingly new.Having previously used their maximalist recordings to capture the exuberance of their live shows, with theaudiences' reactions in mind, CHAI instead focused on crafting the slightly-subtler and more introspective kinds ofsongs they enjoy listening to at home. Their third full-length and first for Sub Pop, "WINK" contains CHAI'smellowest and most minimal music, and also their most affecting and exciting songwriting by far. CHAI drawR&B and hip-hop into their mix of dance-punk and pop-rock, all while remaining undeniably CHAI.

DINOSAUR JR. "Sweep It Into Space" (JAGJAGUWAR) JAG366 LP/ CDDINOSAUR JR. "Sweep It Into Space (JAGJAGUWAR) JAG366LPC1 LP

(translucent purple ripple)"April 23 street date. Here is "Sweep It Into Space", the fifth new studio album cut by Dinosaur Jr.. during the 13thyear of their rebirth. Originally scheduled for issue in mid 2020, this record's temporal trajectory was thwarted bythe coming of the Plague. But it would take more than a mere Plague to tamp down the exquisite fury of this triowhen they are fully dialed-in. And "Sweep It Into Space" is a masterpiece of zoned dialing. The only extra musicianused this time with Kurt Vile, who co-produced the album. As is typical, Lou Barlow writes and sings two of thealbum's dozen tunes and Murph's pure-Flinstonian drumming drives the record like a go cart from Hell. But thereare very few moments where you wouldn't know you were hearing Dinosaur Jr. in blindfolded needle drop. Theyhave a signature sound as sure as the Stooges or Sonic Youth or Discharge ever did. Theycontinue to expand their personal universe with "Sweep It Into Space", without ever losing their central core.

Feeling Figures emerges with a confident strut fit for a Cinnamon Girl on side A. “ Stareat the flowers and pull the weeds”. Try. Try not to let it get to your head. Try is an introspective foot print,mellow melodics and a math problem for an ending. On the flip is Never in Time. “Playing Tetris in the heart of acul-de-sac, the pieces that fit ain’t coming back”. bouncy cloud staring swells, fuzz caterwauls and we’re on to thenext statement. Person of Tomorrow: the sure fire hit, chromatically repugnant and spacially tight-wound. I thinkthe photo used on the cover is a storyboard. Heart or Brain, what do you value? Figure it out soon.

FLY PAN AM "Frontera (180g)" (CONSTELLATI CST155 CD/ LPMay 21 street date. Fly Pan Am have composed some of their most direct, visceral and immediately satisfyingmusic for the acclaimed modern dance piece "Frontera" by Montréal-based troupe Animals Of Distinction.Juxtaposing stern foreboding electronics and minimalist motorik avant-rock, the "Frontera" studio album superblycaptures the bristling, sculpted, intensely evocative instrumental pieces that Fly Pan Am developed in closeconception and collaboration with the dancers. The "Frontera" recordings track faithfully to the narrative of theoriginal work, where eight movements (featuring a company of 10 dancers) flow from controlled chaos and tenselychoreographed kinetics to slow, wrenchingly austere set pieces. This also music stands powerfully andexceptionally well on its own, resonating with the themes of the devastating dance piece. Deluxe 180g vinylincludes artworked inner and 6-panel fold-out insert featuring photographic stills from the original dance production.

GUIDED BY VOICES "Earth Man Blues" (GUIDED BY GBVI103 CD/ LPApril 30 street date. Is it really a musical?! The 33rd Guided By Voices album, "Earth Man Blues", is a magicalcinematic rock album, full of dramatic and surreal twists and turns. Lyrics and liner notes trace the growth of youngHarold Admore Harold through a coming of age and a reckoning with darkness. Vivid scenes appear: snapshots ofyouth, fantastical nightmares, unknown worlds. The music hasn't softened a bit. One will hear the impossiblyperfect melodies and word play that you expect from Robert Pollard, with the band playing at peak-heavy. DougGillard's brilliant guitar playing explodes out of the speakers. The rhythm section of Kevin March and Mark Shue,always strong and reliable, has grown into a breathing composite organism. Along with Bobby Bare, Jr on rhythmguitar, they drive the songs and make one's head shake. Producer Travis Harrison ties the talents of the bandtogether, once again recorded remotely and individually, pandemic-style.

HATFIELD, JULIANA "Blood" (AMERICAN ALR0054 CD/ LPHATFIELD, JULIANA "Blood (indie exclusive- (AMERICAN ALR00540 LP

black with red splatter vinyl"May 14 street date. "Blood" is Juliana Hatfield's 19th solo studio album of originals, and a deep dive into the darkside. The album is a brutal and critical look at modern human psychology and behavior; at personal and societalsickness. "I think these songs are a reaction to how seriously and negatively a lot of people have been affected by thepast four years," says Juliana. "But it's fun, musically. There's a lot of playing around. I didn't really have a planwhen I started this project". "Chunks" and "Had A Dream" are gritty and abrasive while "Mouthful of Blood" and"Gorgon" are groovy and ultra-melodic. All of it is eminently hummable and thought-provoking. Sophisticated butcatchy. Challenging but danceable.

ICEAGE "Seek Shelter" (MEXICAN MEX290 CD/ LPICEAGE "Seek Shelter (indie (MEXICAN MEX290C LP

exclusive-clear orange)"May 7 street date. With each new release, Elias Bender Rønnenfelt, Jakob Tvilling Pless, Johan Surrballe Wiethand Dan Kjær Nielsen refigure the contours of a typical Iceage song. This is especially true of "Seek Shelter", theirfifth LP and first for Mexican Summer. Enrolling Sonic Boom (Pete Kember of Spacemen 3) to produce the recordand an additional guitarist in the form of Casper Morilla Fernandez, "Seek Shelter" sees Iceage's propulsivemomentum pushing them in new, expansive, ecstatic directions. A decade on from their first record, Iceage continueto harness their lives together through music. This journey, in music and life, has never progressed in a linearfashion. What precisely makes an Iceage song is still a mysterious thing, and the band wishes to maintain thisprotean quality. With "Seek Shelter", they've managed to hold onto this core of presence and risk while writingtheir most ambitious songs.

MAN ON MAN "MAN ON MAN" (POLYVINYL) PRC432 CD/ LPMay 7 street date. MAN ON MAN (also M.O.M.) is a new gay lover band made up of Joey Holman (HOLMAN)and Roddy Bottum (Faith No More, Imperial Teen, CRICKETS, Nastie Band). Their upcoming self-titled recordis infused with indie-rock distortion and soaked in gay pop confidence while still maintaining the dry acerbic senseof humour they both share. MAN ON MAN's music transcends both genre or decade, creating a timeless appeal forso many kinds of listening. The varied influences and textures of the record are a meditation on the myriad ofemotions of lockdown, as well as this particular moment in their own lives, collectively and independently. Theshoegaze whirlpools of "Stohner" transition into the square wave synths of "1983" with ease, while tracks like "It'sSo Fun (To Be Gay)" open us up to a new type of queer anthem for the 2020s.

MORCHEEBA "Blackest Blue" (FLY AGARIC) FAR009CD CDMORCHEEBA "Blackest Blue (black vinyl) (FLY AGARIC) FAR009LP LPMORCHEEBA "Blackest Blue (indie (FLY AGARIC) FAR009LPB LP

exclusive-blue vinyl)"

MORCHEEBA "Blackest Blue (indie (FLY AGARIC) FAR009LPW LPexclusive-white vinyl+bonus 7-i"

May 14 street date. Pioneers of the British music scene, ‘Blackest Blue’ will be the Morcheeba's 10th studio albumin a discography that spans three decades. ‘Blackest Blue’ is a refined 10 track album that fuses previousincarnations and sound of the band - such as downbeat, chill, electro-pop, and soul - into one cohesive record thatdives deep into the soul of the band's genre-mashing musical heritage. As usual, the band didn't approach the albumwith any pre-conceptions, and instead created an organic journey that represents everything great about Morcheeba.Skye Edwards' lyrics are primarily focused on positivity and overcoming personal adversity that lies within. Thealbum includes features with Duke Garwood (known for his work with Mark Lanegan, amongst others) and BradBarr (The Slip, The Barr Brothers). Morcheeba's global reach is impressive, taking them to every corner of theworld. Their signature chilled electronic/organic sound has been border-hopping ever since the London-based bandemerged as a household name.

PINK NOISE "Economy Of Love" (CELLULOID CLR03 LPMarch 12 street date. The Pink Noise has germinated since 2007, both in the mind of lead cynicist Mark Sauner aswell as through a slew of excellent records on such fine imprints as Sacred Bones, Skrot Up, Almost Ready andBennifer Editions (to name but a few). The narrative arc over the course of these records is in direct conflict with theexternal trends and slick clamour of the millennial smog encompassing our collective psyche and has garneredacclaim from such discerning cognoscenti as Byron Coley, Thurston Moore and Rich Kroneiss. On their 8th LP,Economy of Love, The Pink Noise cash in their cheap Casios for robust production and shed some angular affect infavour of confident, sprawling, palpable cool. Sauner’s brand of observational diligence is equal parts personal andpunishing as he saunters through a grocery list of emotional turmoil, while Graeme Langdon’s aerobic synth andguitar workouts bring the listener to a sweat. Loopy rubber funk and sly electronic maneuvering colour these songsin a neon palate and bathe them in fluorescent lighting. Street- wise ruminations on love, friendship and thenegative space that is left in their absence. Alienation. Add to the mix the expert musicianship of Simone TB, TaraDesmond, Garrett Johnson, and Gabby Smith, and the Pink Noise are elevated from bedroom cacophony tosocially distant supergroup. FFO: Pere Ubu, Happy Mondays, Television Personalities

April 23 street date. Dead-eyed post-punk from Olympia's reigning noise-niks.

V/A "Directions In Music (BGP) BGP2313 LP1969-1973 (2LP)"

V/A "Directions In Music (BGP) CDBGPD313 CD1969-1973"

April 2 street date. In 1970 Miles Davis released "Bitches Brew", which crystalised the trumpeter and bandleader'sexperiments in rhythm, electronics and musical structure which he had been building on over the previous threeyears. The album has since become one of the most influential in musical history. Miles was the master bandleaderand his LP's at the time declared that these were his ‘Directions In Music’, but he forged them with the help of ahand-picked group of musicians who proved themselves good enough to share his space on stage and in the studio.This compilation looks at the records that they made around the time they played with Miles and how they fed intoor were fed by their time in his group. So we have Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul with versions of tracks they cutwith Miles, Herbie Hancock's journey into the electronic instruments that Miles convinced him to play, and KeithJarrett's firm rejection of them. Lonnie Liston Smith borrows the Indian percussion from "On The Corner" for histake on electronic funk. Chick Corea, John McLaughlin and Gary Bartz all show their distinctive talents that wereallowed to shine in Miles' band. As a bonus, we have Miles' musicians alongside Betty Davis (his wife at the time)on a take of Cream’s ‘Politician Man’ and Miles' 1970 group live at The Cellar Door on Joe Zawinul'sDirections’ (previously unavailable on vinyl).

VEGA, ALAN "Mutator" (SACRED SBR271 CD/ LPVEGA, ALAN "Mutator (dark red)" (SACRED SBR271LPC1 LP

April 23 street date. "Mutator" is the first release in the Alan Vega Vault series on Sacred Bones, collecting rare andunreleased archival recordings. Alan Vega's name is synonymous with unfettered, tireless creativity. Beginning inthe late 1950s, when he was a fine art student at Brooklyn College, through his years playing in Suicide, and allthe way up until his death in 2016, Vega was constantly creating. That process naturally led to a wealth of materialthat didn't see the light of day immediately when it was recorded, which came to be known as the Vega Vault."Mutator" was recorded alongside Vega's longtime collaborator Liz Lamere at his NYC studio from 1995-1996, andit serves as a document of a particularly fertile time in his creative life. At the time of the "Mutator" sessions, Vegawas massively inspired by what was happening in the streets of New York - not only the hip hop scenes that wereexploding throughout the outer boroughs, but also the literal sounds of the streets, the traffic noise and industrialambience of city living. That influence trickled into the sounds he and Lamere captured in those sessions.

Enter two Garfield brothers, these raised-right young men who, as legends maintain, foundsome dusty instruments behind a sleek vacuum in a remote corner of their mom's garage. It sparked a bright ideaand another quest. They drew inspiration from history. With the instruments, they banged and wailed and fashioneda crude and joyful noise, as sudden and pure as a thunderclap. Just as quickly as Electraluxx rose, they stoppedmid-stride and left us puzzling: wherefore art thou, Electraluxx? Which leads us to right now. Today, all the dotshave reconnected and the brothers are back apace. During their long tenure in the wilderness, they have located alife-giving wellspring in Jersey tap-water. They also found it in the hum of a thrift store amps and emanating frombusted car-door speakers. Extolling the frabjous delights of slot cars and roller skates, in heel-kicking dances.C'mon, put the top down, feel the wind and sun, point the nose towards "no particular place to go" and let 'er rip.As always, turn the volume UP.

ELEPHANT MICAH "Vague Tidings" (WESTERN WV214 CD/ LPApril 9 street date. The raw inspiration for "Vague Tidings", Elephant Micah's third effort for Western Vinyl, comesfrom a DIY tour of the 49th state. It was a trip that went off the beaten path - sometimes a bit too far for comfort.Now, over a decade later, listeners find songwriter-producer Joseph O'Connell stationed at a creaky spinet piano,singing about the Alaskan sky. Throughout, his lyrics take a new angle on a pet theme: human encounters with thenatural world. "Vague Tidings" places these encounters in the American West and, at times, in its sci-fi corollary,outer space. Its imagery draws from the allure of Alaska, the idea of Western prosperity, and the human relationshipto wilderness more broadly. Often, O'Connell sings about the goal of capturing and commodifying nature. In poeticsketches of resource extraction industries and dark sky tourism, frontier lust runs amok. Pipelines catch fire and starsdisappear, all to the tune of a stark, uncanny Americana.

Before the year's end, a second 45 "Enemies" andthe "TV Tube Heart" long-player had appeared. Although the second single was on there, the debut was recorded inan altogether more relaxed style, presaging that there would be more to the Radiators than three chords and apolemic. In fact, they were obviously more sophisticated players than some of their contemporaries. The album was a full-on assault on all that any self-respecting youth would find wrong about the world at the time. All bandmembers contributed to the songs, but it was Philip Chevron's acerbic, angry, pointed and literary lyrics that gavethe band such an edge. Limited to 500 copies.

Since theirfirst album 'The Return Of Durutti Column' (released on Factory in 1980), the guitarist, pianist and composer ViniReilly has published a series of remarkable albums that filled the gap between new wave and ambient music. Reillyand Bruce Mitchell (who’s been working with such major artists like Simply Red and Rod Stewart) represented thefuture of the Manchester scene moving forward from the forerunners (Joy Division, A Certain Ratio, etc.) to thenew musical heroes (Happy Monday, Stone Roses and the likes). "Dry' is conceived as a new journey among Viniinventions, through rarefied moods and subterranean streams of sound. The fifteen songs (lasting fifty-five minutes)have been recorded in Manchester in 1990, Vini sits in on guitar and piano, while Mitchell is on electronic andacoustic percussion, other instruments such as the clarinet (played by Zinnia Mitchell-Williams, Bruce's daughter),harmonica, viola and keyboards are also featured on the session. Here, once again, Durutti Column 's music couldbe defined as half-way between melancholy rock and 'progressive' New Age.

The album offers even the re-issue ofthe mini album Greetings Three, a very important goal for the band and the label Materiali Sonori. In fact, the fourtracks included on this record - released in 1985 - have been explicitly dedicated to Italy, Tuscany and to newItalian friends. Along with Vini Reilly you will find the talent of Bruce Mitchell (drums) and John Metcalfe (violin)on display.

JOHNSTON, JAMES & "We Travel Time" (GOD GOD073CD CDSTEVE GULLIC

April 2 street date. After working together on an art show in late 2019, the idea of making music again immediatelyresurfaced. Without any firm strategy, James Johnston and Steve Gullick began recording, unprompted, drawingupon a shared love of noise, folk, and classical. After the first tracks began to evolve, however, they knew they'dunearthed something compelling and fresh, not to mention unexpectedly mysterious. This became "We TravelTime". The result is a deceptively crafted album that slowly reveals - and, more importantly, embraces - beauty inits cracks. Piano, voice, violin and guitar create a drifting haze, with the focus on these acoustic elements forging animagined soundtrack which offers echoes of Big Star, Nico, Lee Hazlewood and Palace Brothers, as well as thegentle, haunting influence of contemporary minimal classical. Ambient sounds - birds, rain, cars, clocks, distantvoices - also drift in and out, melting into the music's fabric via windows left open during the early 2020 heatwave.

Whether it's echo-laden pronouncements on ourworst instincts for techno addiction (‘Digital Colony’) or odes to modernist artists Paul Nash (‘Marsh Personage’)each track is as desperate as it is restrained by the same conditions.

THIRTY POUNDS OF "whence, the" (ARMELLODIE) ARM78LP LPBONE

April 2 street date. "whence, the" is the sixth full-length album by Thirty Pounds of Bone and the third in a seriesof records that play deliberately with the affordances and problems of studio recording. 2015's ‘The Taxidermist’was awash with huge, constructed ensemble pieces, 2019's critically-acclaimed, ‘Still Every Year They Went’ wasrecorded live, at sea, on a commercial fishing boat, and this last takes Johny Lamb's fascination with analoguesynths further than before using Eurorack modular synths as the bedrock for each song. The result of working in thisway is of course, that many of the parts on the record are all but impossible to recreate; the nature of the patchesbeing built in the moment, captured, and undocumented. This time around Johny has focused on the tiny details ofsadness. Johny's lyricism and composition remain oblique but touching, and these songs of little moments ofsadness, regret and grief are built to remain small. They are paradoxically content in their sorrow and shouldperhaps be kept as companions to similar feelings.

Heralded as "a power-pop genius" by BBC Radio Scotland's Vic Galloway,Yip Man's talent for hooks and ability to sculpt complex rhythm and harmony into digestible chunks of unashamedpop is his herculean strength. Three albums in, Nero is a well-seasoned songwriter and "Cock Of The North" isfurther evidence that this is Yip Man at the top of his game; stuffed full of structural twists and turns, razor-sharpriffs, and deeply satisfying choruses. Be advised to spend some time in Yip Man's world, a glorious mix of pathos,empathy, tragicomedy and, importantly, fun.

BLACK SPIDERS "Black Spiders" (DARK RIDERS) DRCD21006 CDApril 2 street date. Back in June of 2017, Sheffield rock beasts Black Spiders waved goodbye to an army of loyalfans with some sonically charged shows before retreating into the shadows. The seeds of the Black Spiders returnwere planted last summer, when singer and guitarist Pete Spiby began taking to guitarist Ozzy Lister to startwriting new material and before they knew it, they had amassed the best part of 40 songs in a very short period oftime which they whittled down. With former drummer ‘Tiger’ Si Atkinson unavailable to play, with a week ortwo of grooming, the band took a chance on Planet Rock DJ Wyatt Wendel to occupy the drum stool. BlackSpiders have crafted an album that features 13 tracks of high-energy, feel-good rock 'n' roll contrasted by demonicdoom that despite the disjointed, isolated way it was recorded, sounds like a band firing on all cylinders.

Immediately recognizable as Kankar but bolstered on every level -songwriting, performance, production - "Dunkle Millennia" literally bristles with an electricity that's undeniable.For a band still (proudly) black metal, the Kankar of now here evince an artistry that spans decades and even genres;one can detect trace elements of classic death metal, pagan metal, traditional metal, and even rock 'n' roll within thealbum's succinct-yet-expansive 45-minute runtime, and yet all of it's spliced and diced in a most fluid manner, andnot once ever schizophrenic. In fact, the muscular-yet-finessed interplay between vocalist/guitarist/bassist Stríð anddrummer Plágan suggests an almost symbiotic relationship, each ever-unfolding passage walking/surging down athorny path but with the route known only to Kankar.

After a number of years of plain sailing, by the end of 1969, having recently played bothWoodstock and, at the end of the year, the disastrous Altamont Festival, Jefferson Airplane were somewhatmentally and physically exhausted. The only casualty however was Spencer Dryden, who was dismissed from theband in February 1970, as he was deeply disturbed by the events at Altamont and burned out from four years on theacid-merry-go-round. One of the finest shows Airplane performed in the first half of 1970 was played at StonyBrook University, in Stony Brook, NY, on March 1st that year, and which found the group completely back onform, playing as they did perhaps their finest show since Woodstock almost a year before.
