6. California Stars | Mermaid Avenue
The first collaboration between Billy Bragg and Wilco is superb. The high point of a fine album.

🎤 Pet Shop Boys
Inexplicably left this off the shortlist…my chronology clearly all over the shop.
One of 3 certainties for my 5.

Deary | Seabird / Alfie
Throughly enjoying the new songs by Deary, Seabird in particular. Really dreamy stuff…with 2 cracking EPs in the bag already, the new album is one I am really looking forward to.

Asgeir | Julia
It’s a beautiful Sunday morning, & this album is a perfect accompaniment.
The more it spins, the more I think it might be the best thing he has released so far. Gorgeous from start to finish.

8. Love is Everywhere (Beware) | Ode To Joy
“We wanted to make really, really small music gigantic.”
Ode to Joy is excellent: patient songs full of small invention. Just listen to Nels Cline’s blindingly great guitar lines.

Big shout out to the music connoisseurs @paulwonvinyl.bsky.social & @shapeslikepeople.bsky.social for their plugs on the stupendous The Besnard Lakes.
Firmly established as one of my favourite recent discoveries…fully onboard the Besnard Lakes train now.
Such brilliant news. Our friends at QFT have created a beautiful space but more than that, the programming is outstanding as is their willingness to explore using the cinema is different ways.
A true treasure.

🎤 The Besnard Lakes
The rugby, The Besnard Lakes & a locally brewed NEIPA for company.
Just as well I don’t work in a bar though…look at the state of that pour😬

Rare sunny day in Northern Ireland edition😎
Tough week Shane….fingers crossed the test results come back positive.
I didn’t realise you had a new track out…will give it a listen😊
Delighted to hear it was a great gig Eoin.
Cracking setlist too…all the big hitters made an appearance 😊👌
Brilliant. Great to hear Shane. Hope all is well with you.
😂
Music & Guinness…Maslow’s hierarchy of needs right there😉
Glad you had such a good night Vincent.
Delighted to hear it Shane…I imagine you will enjoy Cousin also.
Were there any songs in particular you enjoyed?

9. You & I | Wilco
I don’t love the self-referential Wilco album, but this is a wonderful track.
m.youtube.com/watch?v=HYhQ...
It’s a brilliant way to start the album…lyrically it is right up with my favourite Wilco songs😊
“Take off your band-aid, 'cause I don't believe in touchdowns
What was I thinking when we said hello?”
Hey Michael

10. I Am Trying To Break Your Heart | YHF
“I am an American aquarium drinker
I assassin down the avenue”.
The experimental and iconic YHF starts as it means to go on with this 7 min monolith.

Will do Chris😊👍
I like it probably more than that Chris….Meant to Be is the best song they have recorded for quite some time to my ears.
I’ve enjoyed it more than any other album since The Whole Love, without scaling those heights.
HSCS is an excellent EP. Leaves a real impression for only having 6 songs.
What did you make of Cousin out of interest?
I still haven’t listened to Twilight Override…what do you make of it Chris?
Totally agree Chris
Oh wow…what a gig! Yeah, total masterpiece!

💿 Expert in a Dying Field
🎤 The Beths
Are The Beths one of the best indie-pop acts around?
Reckon they are one of the best acts around these days full stop.
Insecure lyrics wrapped by fabulous hooks, instantly hummable, totally infectious melodies. This is a superb album.
