#NowPlaying 🎶 "Leave It In The Past" from "388" by The Coral, 2026-05-21 💿 🎉

Treated myself to a @thecoral.bsky.social record and a @drewmillward.bsky.social print. #MusicSky

Gets better with every listen❤️💚💛

The Coral joining the conversation between the Impressions, the Gaylads and the Wailers wasn’t what I had on my list of utterly essential things but here we are. The ability and balls to pull it off as sensational as it is surprising. Go seek.🌞

Sounds like the sound of the summer #NowPlaying

Really enjoying 388 the new album from The Coral This one fits the current scene perfectly #np youtu.be/NzWHzzEH5eY?...

#NowPlaying You are all correct, this is great. I love the 60s ska style production. It gives me the same vibes that Cornershop's England is a Garden gave me in 2020. @jamesskelly.bsky.social you're a legend, mate x

A lovely playlist full of lovely tunes.

To accompany ‘388’, we’ve put together this Spotify playlist of tunes we were listening to while making the album Listen to ‘Catcher Spirit’ here: open.spotify.com/playlist/2ZX...

Arthur Miller & Marilyn Monroe, with New York’s Queensboro Bridge in the background, 1957, by Sam Shaw.

Quite rough but enjoyable.

Really sad news, hearing that the mighty Steve Barrow has passed. Partnered the Daddy Kool shops in the 70’s and compiled 100’s of essential sets. When he co-founded Blood & Fire in 1993, he transformed the reggae music business, making sure those players got their due. A knowledgeable, kind soul

Difficult to understate how important those Blood & Fire releases where in the 90s; repackaging reggae with the care and respect it deserved and making reggae albums and compilations look like beautiful desirable objects. I bought them for the sleeves and was awed and educated in the process.

The new Coral album is very, very good.

The Coral - 388 (2026) I know I say this every time, but they just get better. It's uncanny. #NowPlaying

Had the new Coral album for nearly a week. It's fantastic and the biggest compliment I can give it is when I listen to it, it sounds like I've been listening to it for years. I don't know if I've worded that right, but it's definitely a positive

They are going to be sick of me posting about this, but I can't get enough of this new @thecoral.bsky.social album! Love how it sounds, love how it was released, love everything about it. #NowPlaying The Coral 388

Ooft, the new Coral album really is That Good. It's probably the most That Good album I've heard since the last album I thought was That Good, which was probably the Mountain Goats. Also very good music for wandering about in the sunshine.

@jamesskelly.bsky.social what a record this is! You and Me (and the Beautiful Sea) is just gorgeous. Everything I love about the band. Spot on with the weather too.

More proof 🌞🔊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Why the coral are one of my Top bands

Happy 77th birthday to Lloyd Parks. Amongst many career highlights, Lloyd was the bass player at Joe Gibbs studio in the 1970s. He played on all the hits including Two Sevens Clash, Uptown Top Ranking and this mighty 12"... youtu.be/28ly3VFsWfU?... #reggae #reggaesky #vinylsky #vinyl #musicsky

Goes well with this Bank Holiday sunshine.

1963. The Flintstones at one point included Terry Marshall, son of amplification legend Jim. Terry played sax, whereas dad had been a drummer in big bands

#NowPlaying #MusicSky Coral Island | The Coral Been enjoying their excellent new back-to-basics album, so 1st time in a while giving their conceptual magnum opus a spin. Really is a superb double album & more than justifies its running length. James is 1 of my favourite vocalists these days.

She’s an excellent performer. Had tickets for her 600 capacity show at The Garage in Islington but the show was eventually held at Koko with 1,500 capacity. Enjoy that small intimate gig.

Collecting starlight.

The new LP by The Coral really is as special as everyone says. 388 contains songs so good that they sound like old friends the first time you hear them. Some boast a gentle rocksteady lilt, while others are sweet soul gems made for a lowrider rolling down Whittier in East LA ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Coral 388 The band skillfully explore some new sounds like rocksteady, doo wop, and Ethiopian jazz on this excellent album, their 13th.

Pod from today, with Chris, myself and @chrisbascombe.bsky.social theliverpoolway.podbean.com/e/liverpool-...

I listened to the new Coral album on repeat last night in A&E (my son dislocated his shoulder trying to do a handstand. He's 21.) Anyway... My god, it's beautiful. It's back on today in the sun and is even better outside a hospital corridor. Nostalgic and new, full of the loveliest sounds. Pure joy.

Superb new album, out last week, and perfect summer listening The Coral - 388

This also feels fitting for today

An utterly delightful record.

Please put on the new Coral Album. What is bluesky for if not saying put on the new Coral album it's good.

@thecoral.bsky.social have snuck out an album, & it’s an absolute doozy!🤩🤩🤩 Picks up almost seamlessly from where Coral Island left off, with its unique ‘brand new’ vintage sound. Doo Wop & Blue Beat, sits happily alongside the unmistakable Coral brand…Is right!👌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ open.spotify.com/album/7edG5y...

An excellent choice for a sunny Sunday at the beach............. The Coral 🎧 388 open.spotify.com/album/7edG5y...

Sunny garden, ice cold beer and the brand new #TheCoral LP in my lugholes. Absolutely ideal sounds for my situation, it's soundtracking the sun to perfection. @jamesskelly.bsky.social , it's brilliant.

The lads are back with my fave since ‘Coral Island’ this one feels like it will sit nicely alongside other low key faves ‘Roots & Echoes’ and ‘Invisble Invasion’. Boss.

I wonder how long The Coral had this surprise new album in the can just waiting for a sunny bank holiday weekend to release it in to. open.spotify.com/album/7edG5y...

Playing the ace new Coral album reminds me that I review the ace new Coral album in the ace new @mojomagazine.bsky.social.

Always a good day when a new album from The Coral arrives! And the sun is shining!! 😎👍🏻☀️
