STREAM: new albums by Liars and Japandroids

  • 0

Just to keep things ticking over whilst I finish up a couple of features for later in the week, Monday seems to be "new album stream day" and today sees two absolute stunners.
First of all, the sixth album from the consistently evolving Liars 'WIXIW' is streaming over at NPR.
Also, at the same site, Japandroids second full length 'Celebration Rock' is streaming ahead of its proper release next week.
Enjoy!

LISTEN: Japandroids - The House That Heaven Built/ Jack The Ripper

I've been slightly under the weather this week, hence the lack of regular updates. Expect a couple of long posts around the weekend, probably a few gig reviews and a round-up of March albums. Meanwhile I was pleased to find a new tune from Japandroids doing the rounds. It's called 'The House That Heaven Built' and will be out in mid-May. The band will be touring the UK around then as well. On first listen I'm thinking "summer anthem", what do you reckon?

Now the flipside has emerged - here is their cover of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds 'Jack the Ripper'
