As ever, all the tracks that make it onto the playlist are aces in my book but if I absolutely, positively had to pick no more than five to check out this week, it’d be these.

If you’re looking for new albums, all the new long-players I’ve spotted from emerging, independent, and DIY artists are here

SINGLE

sleepazoid – NEW AGE

Absolutely hitting their top speed right now, sleepazoid keep their throttles open wide on this latest blast of sharp noise, loudly confident and screaming through the sky.

TAKEN FROM THE ALBUM ‘Love and feel love’

Great Job! – In Waves

Great Job! lean fully into matters of the heart here – and on the rest of their new album – and what we lose in wonky humour we gain in emotional heft and impact. Giant hearts, beating like drums.

SINGLE

Clay J Gladstone – Sunflower

Born from tragedy, full of catharsis and rage and terrible, terrible sadness, this is as heavy in sound as it is in heart. Screams and roars and floods of tears, as hard to listen to as I can only imagine it was to make.

FROM THE EP ‘The BEAST’

Little Quirks – The Beast

The title track of the excellent EP, this little gremlin dances wildly and gently pounds on your skull with big shiny hammers made of pop and harmony.

TAKEN FROM THE ALBUM ‘FACE TO THE FLYWIRE’

Platonic Sex – Sun Goes Down

Platonic Sex close their brilliant album with this track, and although it’s named for sunsets, it feels more like the other end of the day, darkness gradually split open by blinding, warming light.
