Pop & Rock Vinyl New Releases

With ‘Road to Freedom’, The Last Internationale
deliver a powerful, visceral new album that is
resolutely driven by a desire for freedom.
Led by Delila Paz’s intense vocals and Edgey
Pires’s guitars, the band delivers ten tracks that
blend fiery rock, blues-rock and hard rock energy.
From anger and resistance to love, grief and hope,
‘Road to Freedom’ captures a world in motion and
the need to stand strong in the face of everything
that seeks to silence us.
A politically engaged yet deeply human album, it
transforms the tensions of our world into organic,
direct music made for the stage.

A haunting, cinematic journey into a village that exists beyond time
and place, ‘Requiem For A Village’ is Steven Wilson’s most intimate
and imaginative work yet.
Blending dark folk, rock and electronica, the album unfolds as a
continuous 54-minute ‘film for the ears’, populated by strange
archetypes and eerie folklore.
The album is narrated by David Tennant and written with Andy
Partridge (XTC).
Steven Wilson is one of contemporary music’s definitive auteurs. A
six-time GRAMMY nominee and founding member of Porcupine Tree,
Wilson’s last three solo albums have all been Top 5 in the UK. His
most recent albums have garnered career best reviews, including one
that noted Wilson had somehow pulled off the unusual trick of being
able to do whatever he wants, whilst still achieving a level of
commercial success.
A pioneer in the world of spatial audio, Wilson has recently remixed
New Order, The Who, King Crimson, Suede, XTC and Tears For
Fears among many others.

FOIE GRAS, Destroy Boys' fifth album, feels like the record the band has been working toward all along. It's bigger, stranger, and more confident than what came before, without losing the immediacy that got them started. FOIE GRAS was built out of a series of risks that ultimately produced the band's most cohesive, ambitious, and best work yet. Those risks began with the title. Alexia Roditis (vocals/guitar), Violet Mayugba (backing vocals, guitar), Narsai Malik (drums), and David Orozco (bass) landed on FOIE GRAS while touring Europe, passing names around with the same openness that defined the making of the record. Roditis and Mayugba formed the band when they were 15, playing DIY shows around Sacramento while still in high school. Over the past decade, Destroy Boys have grown from those house shows into an international touring band, opening for Blink-182, Pierce the Veil, and Rise Against. Their songs have gotten harder to pin down, too: punk remains the foundation, but alternative, grunge, pop, postpunk, Britpop, bossa nova, and jazz all find their way in. Produced by Zach Tuch (Knocked Loose, Touche Amore), with additional contributions from Frank Iero, FOIE GRAS pushes that restlessness further. It's the sound of a band finally giving itself permission to follow its instincts, no matter the risk-and, in the process, making its best record yet.

"As sharp as I sing, it still soothes you, doesn't it? Like a lick of ice cream?" sings Thao Nguyen on her Kill Rock Stars debut, We Brave Bee Stings and All. Whether it's intentional or not, the line describes her sound perfectly. Nguyen's rich, breathy voice -- and the way she croons, yelps, and drawls with it -- recalls Cat Power, Fiona Apple, and Sinéad O'Connor. However, these comparisons suggest that Thao is a searing, intense artist when nothing could be further from the truth: her country-tinged indie folk-pop is playfully observant, mischievous with just a hint of vulnerability. By playing against type and putting a voice that seems tailor-made for brooding into songs that are sunny and sweet, Nguyen carves out her own intriguing territory among indie folk songstresses.

On We Brave Bee Stings and All's first two songs. "Beat (Health, Life and Fire)" builds brass, ukulele, and piano to an urgent but joyous peak, while "Bag of Hammers" is as rambling as it is catchy. The interplay between Nguyen and her band, the Get Down Stay Down, is more intuitive than ever, and the album's fuller sound (courtesy of producer Tucker Martine) complements her more fully formed songs.

In fact, most of the album is so cheery that it's a good thing Nguyen's voice isn't delicate, or her music might be sickly sweet instead of fresh and engaging. Fortunately, "Feet Asleep"'s Dixieland moxie and "Geography"'s jazzy flourishes help keep the album from sounding too predictable. Even if this isn't Thao's first album, We Brave Bee Stings and All is a fine introduction to her music.

Mit „Wax“ schlagen die schwedischen Rocker Åskväder ein neues Kapitel auf: Erstmals ist Saga Flygare Täll als Sängerin und Gitarristin dabei. Das dritte Album verbindet bluesige Riffs, skandinavische Rock-Energie und große Hooks und richtet sich an Fans von The Hellacopters, Thundermother und Turbonegro. Begleitet wird der Release von einer umfangreichen europäischen Marketingkampagne und mehreren Musikvideos.

Mit „GAMER“ veröffentlicht CG5 sein bislang ambitioniertestes Album. Zwischen Pop, Rock und elektronischen Einflüssen widmet sich der YouTube-Star Gaming, Internetkultur und Fantasie und verbindet hymnische Hooks mit cineastischer Produktion und seinem charakteristischen, energiegeladenen Storytelling.

From the fires and floods of the Australian bush on her debut, Soon, which Phil Elverum reissued via his label, P.W. Elverum & Sun, tiarn now takes us to the shores of the Pacific Ocean where classical and electronic arrangements move with an ever-present longing for connection and nature. Stretton has weaved a new world, set on the brink of night, when the world is soft and suspended in blue. Living in isolation near the ocean, overlooking the winter migration of whales, Stretton would regularly swim during the brief 20-minute period known as the blue hour. Ideas would come to her in the icy salt water, and walking home in the dark, she would carry melodies back to record that night. At its heart, tiarn reflects ecological grief and the search for connection in a changing world. tiarn is also inspired by a piece of home camera footage Stretton found of her family in Japan where they lived in the ‘90s before she was born.

It shows the distant mountains, and Stretton’s young family looking over the valley in the soft static of one summer evening. Decades later, using the untouched synth her parents had bought in Tokyo in 1991, Stretton began recording music directly to that footage, letting the images dictate the melody. Voices, insects, weather, movement, and the ambient sounds of the valley are woven throughout the record itself, blurring the line between documentation and composition. The result is an album that feels less created than uncovered — something remembered rather than made. Stretton’s work continues to carve a singular path in contemporary music, balancing environmental awareness, experimental composition, and deeply personal storytelling.

Royal Blood, eine der wichtigsten britischen Rockbands ihrer Generation, melden sich heute mit der explosiven neuen Single „Ten Over Ten“ zurück und kündigen ihr lang ersehntes fünftes Studioalbum „Dead Company“ an, das am 6. November bei Warner Records erscheint. „Dead Company“ leitet ein kraftvolles neues Kapitel für das Duo ein, das zuletzt 2023 ein Album veröffentlichte. Nach einer Auszeit vom Rampenlicht gingen Mike Kerr und Ben Thatcher 2025 ins Studio – ohne Deadline, ohne Ablenkungen und mit einem einfachen Ziel: herauszufinden, was mit zwei Personen, 12 Tönen und unendlichen Möglichkeiten machbar ist. Von Royal Blood selbst produziert – oder vielmehr „anti-produziert“ – war es ihr Anliegen, ein Album zu schaffen, das so roh, menschlich und gewaltig wie möglich klingt. „Dead Company“ reduziert alles auf den Kern. Unmittelbar und kompromisslos zeigt es Royal Blood von ihrer kraftvollsten Seite. Die Band ergänzt: „Nachdem wir den Motor von Royal Blood für ein paar Jahre im Leerlauf hatten, haben wir die Drehzahl wieder hochgejagt und spielen mit diesem Album schneller und härter denn je. Geschrieben und aufgenommen mit Blick auf die Bühne, können wir es kaum erwarten, die Songs jahrelang live zu spielen.“ Der erste enthüllte Track, „Ten Over Ten“, ist ein bedrohliches Wüstenrock-Monster im Stil von Motörhead. Text und Vibe wurden dadurch inspiriert, dass der Frontmann für einen Marathon trainierte – es dreht sich somit alles um Ausdauer und das Überwinden der eigenen Grenzen.
