Arctic Monkeys
Fluorescent Adolescent
Appealing latest single from bestselling Sheffield group the Arctic Monkeys
Annuals
Be He Me
Debut album from British group Annuals, which if one can get beyond initial Arcade Fire comparisons, proves to be thoroughly convincing
Jackson Analogue
And Then, Nothing
Summery 1960's influenced rock 'n' roll on likeable debut album from the Isle of Wight's most recent export, the Jackson Analogue
Hold Steady
Chips Ahoy
Catchy vinyl only latest single from the much acclaimed Hold Steady
Jesse Malin
Love Streams
Overtly polished, but thoroughly disappointing latest single from much hyped New York singer songwriter Jesse Malin
Stills
Without Feathers
Rewarding second album from the Stills, which finds them moving away from their art rock roots and developing a country sound
Pigeon Detectives
Wait for me
Fast paced but versatile debut album from hard touring Leeds-based band the Pigeon Detectives, who are currently NME's flavour of the month
Pull Tiger Tail
Hurricanes
Catchy, but uninnovative and formulaic latest single from the much hyped Pull Tiger Tail
Parka
If You Wanna
Over safe and dull latest single from Glasgow-based group, Jeepster
