Headphone delight that. Lovely.

I never thought I’d ever say this again but the new the Cure album is pretty great. Sonically solid, lyrically mature misery and not one of those high pitched squeals.

Great, innit? Cool that Opal Tapes is still a thing.

I haven't yet had time to read the entire thread - only the last few pages - so apologies if it's already been mentioned, but the new Kit Sebastian album is a belter.

That's pretty great. The last thing I listened to with Beins was his collaboration with Nuemann on the 2002 album Lidingö on Erstwhile.

It's really good. Like not just "the best since Disintegration" good maybe even as good as their best records. 8 songs, 50 minutes, they haven't made a record with this little fat or filler since Pornography or Head On The Door.
