That was on 6 music. Really like it, hope the album is this good.

The new Julie Christmas record is absolutely fabulous.

https://juliechristmas.bandcamp.com/album/ridiculous-and-full-of-blood

She's probably best known (to me at least) for her collaborations with Cult of Luna but I think she's doing something pretty original herself. Highly recommend a listen for anyone into heavier music of any persuasion, but particularly post-metal types. 

There's also a fabulous live set from Hellfest to enjoy

Johnny Blue Skies (aka Sturgill Simpson) - Passage Du Desir (full album)

Good to revisit this thread. This album has got some interesting stuff going on. Hits some well worn touch points, while having its own thing going on.

Probably the best new band that nobody has ever heard of.

Charli XCX is pretty good isn't she?

Dua Lipa is a current favourite, for four or five years.

For someone deliberately obscure ermmm... The Mysterines?

Love Last Dinner Party as well of course.

Useful to know. Thanks.

Enjoying the new Efterklang songs. I'm looking forward to seeing them again in October - always brilliant live.

I think it might be a bit outside mine too! My tastes are more the Asterean and Kardashev end.

@Sporky

Have you come across a band called Agriculture?

I really liked the last Kardashev album, I didn't know they had a new one out.  I will check out Astrerean too.

I've been 'seeking inspiration' (aka looking for ideas to nick) for my current project from drum machine based music. My daughter put me on to this guy. Enjoying the vibe. Clearly not Last Dinner Party levels of wonderment - at least the name has a finality about it and is related to eating

I think they're one of the next bands to get the London music biz hype - well according to a member of a London band who isn't getting hyped

I get notifications from The state51 Factory YouTube channel, so I have known about them for over a year. It's quite an interesting channel with live performances from a wide range of obscure bands. Here's the Mary in the Junkyard performance.
