Buster Shuffle
Bis
Uplifting fifth album and first record in six years from 90's group, Kula Shaker
Exuberant latest studio album from punk pioneer and former Damned member, Brian James.

Corridor
Layabouts
Mellow second album of superb experimental rock from Gilbert, the project of London-based musician and Engineers drummer, Matthew Gilbert Linley
Wistful and enigmatic debut album from French band Maison Neuve, who sing in both English and French

Souvaris
Wild Mercury Sound
Arabrot

Intelligent and confident third album from Nottingham-based experimental and instrumental group, Souvaris
Dynamic debut single from surprisingly polished teenage guitar act, the Wild Mercury Sound
