New Tides From Nebula single:

There's an album on the way too but no date yet.

 

God Is An Astronaut - Embers

Am I alone in not caring about almost all of their output in the last decade? Basically ever since they changed the font they use on their album covers they've done mostly nothing for me, and that can't be a coincidence. Bring back the old font, dickheads.

 

I liked Epitaph and Ghost Tapes a lot, but it has been a while since I’ve listened to them

Think I’m gonna revisit some of their stuff soon and check out the new one

 

Instant Rewards out November 8th

 

New Glacier. More on the Post Metal side of things. And wow this so good.

 

If we don't get an album announcement along with this, I'm gonna lose my goddamn mind.

 

Platonick Dive - Take A Deep Breath

RIYL: A Sudden Burst of Colour, Bells, The American Dollar

 

New Secret Gardens single:

Album out October 25th

 

New single from A Burial at Sea, featuring Peter Broderick:

 

Woe

 

I'm so ready to be completely incensed by the gap between this and the actual release date but fuuuuuuuuck it's finally (sort of) happening.

Edit: Apparently it's coming out in November according to the group doing promo for their Nottingham show this week.

 

Shoegaze was raved so my dumbass listened to blackgaze (black metal shoegaze). Post-rock was Slint, so my dumbass listened to post-metal instead (Isis). I was too depressed to think, and I still am but now i luv music moar.

 

Overhead, The Albatross - This Is Like Love

I Leave You This out November 15th

 

Fucking FINALLY, let's goooooo!!

 

Slightly random rec incoming, but I just reminded myself of a decade+ old band called Friend? who sadly only ever released one EP and a single:

They are extremely similar to the short-lived Mr. Dog + Think, Thank, Thunk era of Overhead, The Albatross (which is to say, melodic and a bit mathy with strings). Even the production is similarly not super polished. It's really striking how alike all 4 of these releases are.

Which incidentally all came out in the same 2 year period.

Also they both happen to be Irish.

A bit suspicious now that I've typed it all out.

RIP Friend? in any case.

 

Augh the O,TA album is in my inbox rnnnnn

 

First thoughts?

I didn't like the last single so much so hoping the rest of the album is different.

 

I just heard the studio version of Paul Lynch for the first time and I am a wreck, this is fucking tremendous

 

To Life - Sepuelma

Really really serenely pretty, chill, neoclassical, minimalist-ish, folky, vaguely post-rock adjacent

 

One last single before the album:

 

It's the closer. Avoid if you care about that kinda thing.

Album is incredible, easy top 5 aoty

 

Having already heard the outro via the many live clips they've posted in the past year or so, I never in a million goddamn years would've expected this song to sound the way it does. Possibly a bigger curveball than the last single tbh. It's fucking dope as hell.
