![]() Idles’ second album ‘Joy as an act of resistance’ is due out 31st August on Partisan Records.ĭay Wave doing what they do best here – releasing tracks with Summer vibes. It’s not been long since Idles put out the hugely catchy pro-immigrant anthem ‘Danny Nedelko’ and they’ve quickly followed it up with this – a song that Joe Talbot from the band wrote to encourage conversations around gender roles. Catch him playing live for his album launch at The Shacklewell Arms (London) on 16th August. ‘Crow’ is an amalgamation of crashing cymbals and ethereal vocals with a wonderfully crafted video to suit. Hilang Child is the moniker of Londoner Ed Riman whose debut album ‘Years’ is out on Bella Union on 10th August. I challenge you to listen to this song without hearing them scream ‘Joe Cole’. The video however appears to put this idea to bed as it features a star-studded cast including Blur’s Dave Rowntree and Royal Blood’s Ben Thatcher, all auditioning to be the band’s new drummer. The latest offering from Slaves, released just a matter of days after the band seemingly announced that they were splitting up. In the meantime, check out the video for lead single ‘The Rover’ too, directed by Gerardo Naranjo (Narcos). More post punk goodness on this, the band’s second single from upcoming album ‘Marauder’ - due out at the end of August. See below for some of my favourites from the past month. We’re smack bang in the middle of festival season but that hasn’t stopped some artists from releasing great tracks alongside their busy touring schedules.

Much like IDLES with their single ‘Samaritans’, Sam Fender too is addressing the stigma around mental health in young men, with this beautiful track. The band release their first album in seven years on Alcopop! So you know it’ll be good. This track pretty much does what it says on the tin, with lead singer Eddie Argos repetitively exclaiming ‘I don’t want to go home yet, there’s still some people I haven’t met’. Īrt Brut – ‘Wham! Bang! Pow! Let’s Rock Out’ This is an instant dancefloor filler from Black Honey, to be featured on their self-titled debut album due out at the end of this month.
