The Swedish pop star explores the intricacies of her femininity on her fifth album, Dirt Femme. “I believe masculine and feminine lives on a spectrum in all humans,” says Tove. There are so many more interesting nuances than most people want to accept. Songs on this album will contradict each other, will probably upset some of you, will make you want to dance, cry, fuck and drive your car really, really, fast.”

On their seventh album, the band pushes into some of its heaviest territory ever while also dialing in a return to the anthemic and memorable songwriting qualities that its earliest records exuded. From unrelenting rockers and mid-tempo melodic power ballads to all expansive and technically demanding progressive rockers. *Indie Exclusive Sun Yellow LP*

Producer Larry Klein pays tribute to his friend Leonard Cohen with an album that presents stunning new renditions of the legendary singer-songwriter's compositions performed by an extraordinary line-up of vocalists. The guest artists are backed by what Klein calls "a group of the most prescient and forward-looking musicians in the jazz world."

The first-ever career-spanning album from songwriter, musician, poet, novelist, and visual artist Leonard Cohen. Comprised of 17 tracks from Cohen’s expansive career, this anthology features an unreleased and unforgettable live performance of “Hallelujah” from the 2008 Glastonbury Festival. Inspired by the documentary, Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen a Journey, a Song.

Plains is Katie Crutchfield (Waxahatchee) alongside singer-songwriter Jess Williamson, and the band’s foundation is their Southern backgrounds. Encouraging each other to plunge into these shared roots, they’ve grabbed country and shaken it. Frank and redemptive, It’s a journey of small Texas towns and wide open spaces. *Indie Exclusive Pink Clear LP*

Re-issue of the band’s 2009 beyond nu-metal album. The straight reggae of "I'll Be Ready," the bluesy rhythm of "It Can't Rain Everyday," and the (gasp!) acoustic ballad "Tell Me Why" show that this was not a memory piece or a tribute to harder days. When Angels and Serpents Dance represents the strength of one of Christian rock's greatest assets. *Limited Edition Gold LP*

Apocalypse Love is an album that emanates from a dive bar jukebox in the back of your mind; with a playlist that bends between tub thumping doom-glam, Plastic Ono singalongs, cocktail-shaken space age pop, Morricone reverberations and lo-fi outsider acoustic-punk, with mariachi horns, theremins, drum machines and harmonies filtering through the infectious melodies. *Limited Edition Violet LP*

Cry With Tears celebrates the communal nature of polyphonic singing, reasserting the primacy of female voices in the southern Balkans while revitalizing the art and connecting memories of childhood with the immediacy of daily life. Produced by GRAMMY Award-winning producer, musicologist, archivist, and author Christopher C. King. *Indie Exclusive Maroon LP*

Lookman has untethered himself from any genre classifications on Ottoline. "I used to describe my music as postmodern blues," he says, "but these days I just describe it as lyrically-centred, genre-nonspecific music." Written during various lockdowns, the world's collective experience of isolation has informed large parts of the new album, thematically, but ironically it's his most collaborative to date.

Conjuring memories of first heartbreaks, small towns and cherished memories, Homecoming is the Texas band’s ninth studio album and marks their 20-year anniversary. The project is a renaissance for the band, keeping the sounds and traditions that have made them so beloved over the past two decades and delving into deeply personal topics sure to resonate with audiences around the world.

Twenty effortlessly straddles the divide between then and now, its songs casting a backwards glance at the days and years gone by, while also looking forward to the future. A collection of both brand new tracks and older ones written during the course of the band's life to date, the result is something of a paradox: this both is and isn't a new Early November record. *Indie Exclusive Pink & White Pinwheel LP*

Blue Rev captures Alvvays as they have always existed onstage: more urgent, more dense and noisier, cocooned in distorted guitars and smeared with synthesizers. There’s still the quiet pop and downtempo tunes, but this a brilliant and boisterous affair made for the sorely missed live setting. *Limited Edition Marbled Blue LP*

Under the Midnight Sun, with its smooth yet slashing swagger, is a return to The Cult’s original sound of the Post-Punk era. It’s a haunted plea for “a new language” couched in a reaffirmation of old glories. Those dark energies meld with the wisdom of age to create something fresh and powerful. *Indie Exclusive White LP*

Strange deals in elegantly volcanic indie rock, with a love of exultant hooks, and a soaring, soulful voice. There’s playfulness here, too, but the peak comes as he makes poetry of the big issues. Strange's earnestness is artful, and Farm To Table an uplifting triumph. *Indie Exclusive Yellow LP*

A Eulogy… feels like the pinnacle of this sort of hardcore, where innovation can afford to take a backseat to quaking, electrifying power when it’s carried out this well. It’s the best in its field, a dubbing which Counterparts shouldn’t be unfamiliar with, nor should they be expecting to lose anytime soon. *Indie Exclusive Orange/Red/Black Splatter LP*

Furious indie-pop anthems combine across the record with psych and prog influences, demonstrating the wealth of influences the band feed off and their deep musicality. Surrealist lyrics are as ever at the forefront, but the new album gives greater opportunity to explore bugged out guitar jams, and immersive journeys touching on krautrock territory.

For their first album as Gilla Band, (formerly Girl Band) the foursome has redrawn their own paradigm. Most Normal is like little you've heard before, a kaleidoscopic spectrum of noise put in service of broken pop songs, FX-strafed Avant-punk rollercoaster rides and passages of futurist dancefloor nihilism. Swans for the Black Midi generation.

Willow’s musical ambition has always been there, but here it’s matched by larger-than-life rock that borrows from multiple eras, creating something new. The emo-pop wild child’s idiosyncratic songwriting pairs with arena-headliner production, creating a soaring thrill ride, with the high drama of her lyrics and vocals matching the tumultuous music surrounding her.

47 minutes of the band’s trademark blend of death, black, thrash and sludge metal delivered with breathless intensity and an unrepentant bloodlust. Featuring the old school crossover flavored "Death From Above" with its guttural chorus, and the epic, chilling title track that is as haunting as it is heavy. Play it loud!

From the album’s frenetic opener, “In Extremis”, to the pensive, “Forest” and “Behind The Walls”, Digital Noise Alliance echoes Queensrÿche’s genre-defining albums while effortlessly moving from strength to strength. Immediate and thought-provoking. Quintessentially Queensrÿche. *Limited Edition Lilac 2xLP*

The undisputed harbinger of metal horror returns with a brand new slathering of terrifyingly grim and groovy anthems to get blood pumping and brains melting! Showcasing the band's 20-year career, Horrifier weaves a raucous blend of ballistic metal and macabre heavy rock that'll have new and diehard fans alike ascending from the depths.

The Wolf Bros’ (Weir, Don Was, Jay Land & Jeff Chimenti) second vinyl collection of recorded live material from Red Rocks show in June 2021. Featuring Greg Leisz on pedal steel, along with The Wolfpack: Alex Kelly, Brian Switzer, Adam Theis, Mads Tolling and Sheldon Brown. *Indie Exclusive Tie Dye LP*

Loose Future positions Andrews between Waxahatchee and Angel Olsen, a triumvirate of singer-songwriters finding new alleyways in and out of familiar territory. The 10 absorbing songs, perfectly warped like a heart that’s survived hurt, are testaments to remaining in motion. *Indie Exclusive Red LP*

Running the gamut of slacker sounds, bouncing between ’90s touchstones like Pavement and The Lemonheads, it’s the sort of record Beck might have made, if you swapped the hip-hop and delta blues of Odelay for midwestern emo and the sort of all-American indie that functions as “classic rock” for this cherubic cohort. *Indie Exclusive Green/Blue LP*

Town Mountain creates a collage of sound and scope within the same template of freedom found in the round-robin fashion of the musical institution that is The Band. Lines in the Levee is a bona fide workshop in their seamless blend of Americana, country, bluegrass and folk roots. *Indie Exclusive Orange LP*

Created as a celebration of Prine’s life and career, Vol. 2 features new renditions of some of Prine’s most beloved songs performed by Brandi Carlile, Tyler Childers, Iris DeMent, Emmylou Harris, Jason Isbell, Valerie June, Margo Price, Bonnie Raitt, Nathaniel Rateliff, Amanda Shires, Sturgill Simpson and John Paul White.

So much of Anywhere But Here could be the soundtrack to a 90s indie movie, but these songs stay in their own world; there is no drowning in influence here. Fueled by rapturous and disjointed guitar work and bittersweet lyricism, this record will easily be in the running for one of 2022’s best. *Indie Exclusive Opaque Seafoam LP*
