Flock is apparently more pop-focused than its predecessors, and also influenced by Lebanese and Russian music. Weaver was once a performer of folk bent, but since 2014’s superb Hawkwind-sampling breakthrough album The Silver Globe, she’s pursued an ambitious, idiosyncratic modern take on psychedelia: last year she was both sampled by Coldplay and tapped to remix Paul Weller. Together in Static – the name of a beatless track Avery premiered during a recent Radio 1 mix – features more new music, premiered at a seated, socially-distanced concert at London’s Hackney Church on 13 February, followed by an album “a matter of weeks later”.

Tyron apparently offers more introspection – James Blake makes a guest appearance – amid the noisy punk/grime aggro.Įxperimental. The couple of years since the release of Slowthai’s punkily fantastic debut Nothing Great About Britain have been turbulent ones for the rapper: critical acclaim and commercial success mixed with controversy over both his performance at the Mercury prize holding an effigy of Boris Johnson’s severed head and his behaviour at the subsequent NME awards.

Frontman Dave Grohl has variously described it as “a party album”, “different to anything we’ve ever done” – single Shame Shame’s clattering drums and pizzicato strings certainly sounded unlike previous Foo Fighters tracks – and featuring “choruses that 50-fucking-thousand people are going to sing”. Recorded in a reportedly haunted house in California, Medicine at Midnight was completed in February last year, but delayed by the onset of Covid-19. Photograph: Danny Cinch Foo Fighters – Medicine at Midnight The string of singles she’s released over the past two years have been fabulous – there’s a keen pop sensibility lurking amid the acoustic guitar and breakbeat-led angst. The first time the Guardian featured Arlo Parks, it suggested her music was “emo 2.0”, a neat label to give her brand of confessional lyrics (the feature came on the heels of an EP called Super Sad Generation, a title that wasn’t meant knowingly) and stark, intimate delivery. And Saku, one of three singles already taken from its follow-up, was one of 2020’s low-key delights: a dreamy collaboration with singer-songwriter Clara La San that stirred influences from IDM, footwork and 90s R&B into their sound.Ģ2 January Arlo Parks – Collapsed in Sunbeams

It’s been a full three years since Blake’s last album, Overgrown, but, if “Timeless” is any indicator, Radio Silence will be well worth the wait.The title of Sleaford Mods’ sixth album is apparently an oblique reference to the fatalities in the first wave of coronavirus: “Human lives are always expendable to the elites,” in the words of vocalist Jason Williamson, “we’re in a constant state of being spare ribs.” The presence of a track called Shortcummings suggest events of the last 12 months figure heavily, although lead single Mork n Mindy offered a grim look back at 80s childhood.īelfast duo Bicep’s eponymous 2017 debut was an impressively eclectic gem that shifted them away from their deep house roots into breakbeats, electro and drum’n’bass: in scope and ambition, it recalled the blockbusting dance albums of the 90s by Orbital or Leftfield. Deep, moody bass lays the foundation for alluringly sparse chords and melodic textures, as the song builds from a bare drum beat to an enchanting haze of siren calls and aching layered vocals. Not content to tease his listeners with just news, however, Blake also debuted a new single from the upcoming release, entitled “Timeless.” Full of the singer/producer’s signature, haunting falsetto, the piece is everything fans could hope for in a James Blake track. And, while he didn’t give a release date, James did let on that the new record will house a wealth of material, boasting 18 tracks, one of which is set to be over 20 minutes long. Blake has already used his radio show as an outlet to give fans a taste of what the album will sound like, premiering “ Modern Soul” and a host of other songs that may or may not be included.
