Thom's pick: Slowdive feels just as current and engaging as ever on this one, maybe just as timeless as Souvlaki. From start to finish, it's an absolute soundbath: warm, lush and soaked in melancholy. Damper
Chris' pick: This was a huge return for Crime in Stereo after a 13 year break. Glitchy soundscaping, catchy vocal hooks and attention to detail make this album a fully cohesive listening experience. Damper
Phil's pick: I've had this album on nonstop since it came out. Nick DePirro's guitar is truly incredible and Aric Improta makes excellent use of space as he weaves together layers of rhythm on drums. Damper
I got really into this album when I started my first job, which was night shifts. There's something about listening to math rock on repeat that either kills the song, or makes it a part of you. This definitely became a part of me and my late night productivity. anthracite
