Jon Hopkins - Singularity: beautifully crafted stuff that goes bleep bloop that Mrs_bob can't stand.
GoGo Penguin- Man Made Object: Imagine 90s piano-led trance, but it's a jazz piano trio. Now imagine it's waaaay better that description makes it sound. To our mutual surprise, Mrs_bob *did* like A Humdrum Star...
Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit- Reunions: Listened to this over the weekend because Mrs_bob definitely does like this sort of thing. It's a bit good, isn't it? (in other news: water is wet, the Pope is a Catholic, bears shit in the woods etc)
Also bought recently:
Everything Everything- Re-animator: I really rate these. Always something musically interesting going on, and somehow the utterly bizarre lyrics make sense and are often clearly about something.
Del Amitri- Fatal Mistakes: Not dead after all, but doing what they've always done well, well. Songs about a sad Scottish bloke drinking alone in a hotel bar, songs about ex-girlfriends with a twist at the end about who dumped who, all that good stuff.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
WAY better than the description sounds
Cheers @english_bob
I feel like I'm a long way behind the curve on actually listening to and appreciating Jason Isbell. I've known his name for ages, but never actually paid proper attention. Really good stuff, with some interesting guitar tones lurking in what sounds superficially like a very traditional country-rock album.
Trance-but-it's-a-jazz-trio sounds like the worst idea ever, and if they'd actually set out to do that it would almost certainly sound fucking terrible, but somehow that's how a lot of the more uptempo tunes end up sounding to my ears.

You can hear the Loudness war in full effect, but production is excellent, and content surprisingly consistent.
There's a rumour it's a hoax.
