🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣3️⃣ >> The Cure - Songs Of A Lost World Robert Smith's band of Goth (not Goth) miseries return after a long hiatus to wow the world with a superb new album. Easily their best since [insert your last fave Cure album here]. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣4️⃣ >> Erotic Secrets Of Pompeii - Mondo Maleficum Headonistic occultists, worshiping at the maleficent altar of rock n roll while leading their disciples to the Aeon of Horus. I am the evil one indeed!! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣5️⃣ >> Sahra Halgan - Hiddo Dhawr Bit of a curve ball this one. The title translates as "Promote Culture" in the singers native Somalian language. As for the music.... Just wow, totally infectious!! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣6️⃣ >> Hauspoints - Eel Feeling Art-rockin' post-punk for dancefloor kids and beard-strokin' audiophiles alike. Lyrics that make you think, scratch your head or laugh out loud in equal measure. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024 @crackedankles.bsky.social

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣7️⃣ >> British Birds - In Search Of Mr Rykyn Combining 60s pastoral psych, a dash of Gomez and a splash of The Bees; this album still manages to sound original, new and fresh. Brilliant fun live too. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣8️⃣ >> Michael - Nite Salad Packed full of doom-laden brain-liquifying punk noise that accompanies burroughsesque cut-up, Edward Lear on meth style lyrical genius. Play very loud!!! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024 @crackedankles.bsky.social

Two biggest sellers back in stock for Christmas! Come give us a visit - Open till 5pm today! Preston BID Blog Preston Visit Preston Lancashire Post Lancashire Telegraph Fontaines D.C. The Cure Preston Hub

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣9️⃣ >> Plantoid - Terrapath I took a punt on this based on the sleeve art and wasn't disappointed. A new twist on Gongesque jazzy prog-rock from a young Brighton based outfit. Incredible live! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣0️⃣ >> Fontaines DC - Romance Destined for greatness. On their 4th album they've really stepped it up in terms of song writing and production although I do miss the youthful raw energy of their debut. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣1️⃣ >> Bob Vylan - Humble As The Sun Another brilliant LP with a maturing sound. Lyrics still rapier sharp daggers to the establishment heart, but possibly lost some of the shock of earlier efforts. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣2️⃣ >> Hawklords - Relativity Hawklords 11th album since reanimation in 2012 and for me it's their best!! Now just a trio, they still make powerful and exhilarating space-rock'n'roll with a punky edge. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣3️⃣ >> Gurriers - Come And See Another exciting young Irish band making excellent post-punk noise. Rawer, more visceral than say the Fontaine's but also there's an intelligence that belies their years #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣4️⃣ >> Amyl &The Sniffers - Cartoon Darkness The antipodean punks really hit their stride on this album. Still, loud, raucous and irreverent for the most part, but also showing signs that their sound is steadily maturing. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣5️⃣ >> Thank - I Have A Physical Body That Can Be Harmed Like their debut this is packed full of noisy, shouty & abrasive post-punk. Underneath the blood and thunder though lies plenty of funky art-rock and danceable groves. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣6️⃣ >> Big Special - Postindustrial Hometown Blues Hard talking, street smart realism and dark humour are delivered over funky post punk beats or as straight-up gritty poetry. A compelling listen. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣8️⃣ >> Thee Alcoholics - Feedback Thunderous cacophony of relentless noisy art-rock with squalls of feedback chucked in. Nice chilled listening for a hungover Sunday morning? Definitely not. Play loud. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 1️⃣9️⃣ >> Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Wild God The antipodean troubadours return with their 18th album and it's a belter. A relatively upbeat effort as these things go, but still plenty of emotional drama! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 2️⃣0️⃣ >> Melts - Field Theory Dublin's Melts return with a 2nd album combining psych-rock, electronics, and pulsating beats with often mesmerising, trance inducing results. Blanging!! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 2️⃣2️⃣ >> Crows - Reason Enough On their 3rd LP the indie rockers have honed their brooding dark sound into a series of gothic psychedelic triumphs. Warning: contains serious tunes and riffage!! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 2️⃣3️⃣ >> Lip Critic - Hex Dealer The New York electronic punk quartet deliver a debut packed with brain pummelling beats, samples and squalls of electronic noise is it dance music or hardcore punk? Who cares!! 🔥🔥🔥 #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 2️⃣4️⃣ >> Paul Weller - 66 His 17th solo album and one his best. As he hits 66 years old he's in an understably reflective mood, but still able to hit a groove when required. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨🚨 . 2️⃣5️⃣ >> Dragged Up - High On Ripple . What the Velvet Underground might have sounded like if they'd been dragged up around the Buckfast dens of Glasgow instead of New York's sleazy bars.... possibly not, but hey! 🤷‍♂️😂 #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨🚨 2️⃣6️⃣ >> Arrested Development - Bullets In The Chamber I'm not a huge rap fan, but I've always got time for these guys and their messages of positivity, truth & justice, self-determination and political consciousness. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 2️⃣8️⃣ >> Objections - Optimistic Sizing Leeds power-trio deliver cerebral arty Post-Punk full of unexpected twists and turns to keep you on your toes. Guitar, bass & drums augmented with occasional bursts of electronic noise. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 2️⃣9️⃣ >> Primal Scream - Come Ahead Their twelfth album sees them take a funky & soulful direction, with elements of that oh-so cool philly-sound and fatback beats. Band politricks aside this is a decent effort. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣1️⃣ >> Loose Articles - Scream If You Wanna Go Faster Long awaited debut from Manchester's boisterous (girlsterous?) punks. Plenty to enjoy on this album as they lead the new wave of riotgrrrl punks #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣2️⃣ >> The The - Ensoulment The long awaited return of The The picks up pretty much where they left off 24 years ago with Matt's distinctive vocal delivery and intellectual lyricism to the fore. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣4️⃣ >> Idles - Tangk For me their best album since 2017's debut Brutalism. Certainly their most experimental and expansive in terms of musical arrangement and production! 🔥 #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣5️⃣ >> The K's - I Wonder If The World Knows? Gritty street realism delivered with impassioned vocals and youthful energy over anthemic indie anthems and dancefloor fillers. Great debut LP. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣6️⃣ >> Folly Group - Down There! This had me hooked from the opener Big Ground, a real old school funk punk outing. The rest of the album sticks to a post punk theme but uses many varied styles. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣7️⃣ >> David Lance Callahan - Down To The Marshes Essentially a modern folk outing with a tinge of melancholic psychedelia. It's lyrically dark in parts, but compelling throughout. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

@tim-burgess.bsky.social today but last year.... @thebarrowland.bsky.social It was ruddy freezing outside but The Charlatans were on fire!!

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣8️⃣ >> Girls In Synthesis - Sublimation GIS return to spread bleak desolation on their 3rd LP proper or do they? Despite the subject matter these tracks seem more upbeat and dare I say it tuneful? 🤔 #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 3️⃣9️⃣ >> Porcine - Porcine Barnsley's finest's new line-up takes us back to a late 80s student bedsit for an album of lush, shoe-gazy, C86 guitar pop with shimmering ethereal vocals. Nice!! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 4️⃣0️⃣ >> Strip Search Tramp - B-Movie Disasters Sci-fi punk 'n' roll!! Their debut sees them combing energetic punk with spacy electronics, great tunes and a sense of humour to great effect. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024
