Palma Violets - '180'
Palma Violets have only been kicking around for a couple of years, and the London quartet’s first release, 180, is definitely one worth hearing.

Foals - 'Holy Fire'
There is probably nothing more agitating in an album than one that can showcase a song that could potentially be one of your favourites for the year, and then only minutes later deliver something that you actually despise.

Unknown Mortal Orchestra - "II"
To most listeners, the sound will seem immediately engaging, but part the way through the lack of finding catching points outside of their lo-fi niche will lead to a loss of interest; often forcing 'II' to pleasant background music.
Birds Of Tokyo - 'This Fire EP'
This Fire, the latest EP from Ian Kenny’s pop/rock band Birds of Tokyo further explores the softer side of alt-rock, indicating the full transformation of the band from conventional rock to a more mature and well crafted atmospheric sound.
Gallows - 'Gallows'
Some of the more progressive tracks highlight where they may be headed, and the old school tracks, where they have been. A self-titled album defining the path of the band.
