Alone Aboard the Ark is an album that moves The Leisure Society forwards, outwards, and upwards, as a band that continues to grow into their story.

On this mini-album the band take a sidestep away from dance floor urgency into a deeper vortex of sound, creating a hypnotising state in which to immerse yourself further into their kaleidoscopic world.

Tom Williams and the Boat return with their second album, and there’s not a song about the M25 in sight.

An entirely a cappella album from The Futureheads – is it all gimmick or all good?

An album tied together with the neat bow of Peter’s trademark attention to detail; with its intricacies and subtleties this is not one to have on in the background. A masterclass in music-making.

Cloud Nothings return with their third album, Attack on Memory. But does it erase all traces of what’s gone before it?

A handsome, middle-class, 20-something young man with a touch of enigma about him? Doing dubstep? With a somewhat ‘brave and interesting’ cover version? Stop me if you’ve heard this before….
