Another three albums I have been listening to this past week or so, summed up by others on the net. Please add these sites to your reading lists, RSS feeds, sidebars, bookmarks etc.
Small Crush – Penelope
“Penelope is simply delightful. It’s catchy, raw, and just a fun listen. Whether you’re bopping along to the infectious tunes or getting lost in the dreamy shoegaze interludes, Penelope invites you to immerse yourself in its magic.”
Via The Indy Review
“Small Crush tackles the delicate intricacies of the human condition, weaving through deeply resonant themes like emotional resilience, self-doubt, and grappling with the passage of time.”

Penelope is out now via Asian Man Records.
Bleach Lab – Lost In A Rush Of Emptiness
“They’ve taken their time, found their feet, found their sound, and found the right way of recording the strongest collection they’ve written so far. This is an accomplished debut LP that sounds like it was created as a whole, from the stunning blurred photographs on the Bakerloo Underground line for the artwork to the cohesive and expansive eleven songs that make for a compelling and immersive listen”
Via God Is In The TV
“Lost In A Rush Of Emptiness is an impressive collection of ethereal cuts steeped in powerful emotions, that find their root in jangly indie-rock and textured instrumentation.”
“There’s a glorious dynamism to Bleach Lab on their debut album ‘Lost In A Rush of Emptiness’. It’s part ‘Luminous’-era Horrors – an expansive, celestial pilgrimage for the mind, body and soul”

Lost In A Rush Of Emptiness is out now via Nettwerk.
Foxlore – Noisserped
“‘Noisserped’ is an exploration of the depths of the human experience, touching on themes of love, loss, and the struggle to find meaning in a world that often seems bleak and unforgiving. With songs that range from introspective to anthemic, ‘Noisserped’ is both deeply personal and universally relatable.”
Via Scenestr
“Noisserped” as a whole plunges headfirst into the intricate dance of the human soul, baring the visceral pangs of love, the weight of loss, and the ceaseless search for purpose in a sometimes shadowy world. Its tracks pivot from hushed, heartfelt melodies to rousing refrains, sculpting “Noisserped” into a chronicle that speaks both to individual souls and the collective heart.”
