Ye Nuns - Shut Up
I've been aware of these for some time, an all-female tribute to The Monks - the GIs based in Germany who made garage rock back in the early 60s. I don't normally go for tribute acts, but these are exceptional.
Bizarre - Barcode Warrior
Estonian shoegaze, a long-awaited third album made up of tracks recorded in 1997 and '98. Necro is out on June 4.
Kagoule - Bad Saliva
New one from the forthcoming LP Strange Entertainment, their first release for new label Alcopop!
Plaza - In The Know
From Hartlepool, these.
Modern Day Dukes - Tourist
The latest single from the Sheffield/Leeds noisemakers.
The Plainviews - Bladerunner
Featuring two of Idles and one of The St Pierre Snake Invasion, this is terrific. The EP A Million Different Ways Of Saying Nothing was recorded a couple of years ago, but in true DIY fashion, life got in the way and only now have they found time for a release. Worth the wait.
Don Gonzo - Worship The Breeze
Don Gonzo - Quit Ya Job (recorded live at The Parish)
A couple of tracks from our friends Don Gonzo. The former is the new single and they're playing Northern Quarter soon. Check your local listings.
Doe Pickle - Company Man
Also from Huddersfield and also friends of the show, this is off last year's Butty Time EP.
Crooked Teeth - Mountain Song
New single from the electro-poppers from Glasgow but now based in that London.
Ay Wing - Strange
More of that sort of thing by Berlin-based Swede Ay Wing off her forthcoming Ice Cream Dream EP,
Ennor - Wave After Wave
Cornwall folk-rock now.
Those Unfortunates - Hornsey Automatic FC
Following the Two Songs About Buses EP comes Two Songs About Football.
In Her Eye - Closer To Me
From Milan, this is off the album Change out on June 1.
Cup - Magic Planet
Cup is New Yorker Tym Wojcik and this is off the new album Jitter Visions.
I Can, I Can't - Gravity
And finally, a duo from Worcester with a track from the EP Let Me Die which came out 10 days ago.
