In more adventurous releases, post-rock legends Mogwai have their beautifully-titled Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will and other post-rock legends …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead offer Tao Of The Dead.

There’s also a new album from experimental folk-rockers Akron/Family called Akron/Family II: The Cosmic Birth And Journey of Shinju TNT.  

Good Vibes visitors Fenech Soler release their self-titled debut on Shock, NY hipster disco kids Hercules & Love Affair offer the new album Blue Songs and local electro producers The Potbelleez release album number two Destination Now.

To Wales, where pop-punk act Attack!Attack! (not to be confused with crabcore clowns Attack Attack!) release their second album The Latest Fashion and Super Furry Animals singer Gruff Rhys has a new solo album Hotel Shampoo.  

Aussie hip-hop producer Plutonic and Philly soulman G-Love team up on the blues-hop collaboration Moonshine Lemonade, Sydney psychedelic-pop manchild Guineafowl releases his proper debut Hello Anxiety and SixFtHick side project Gentle Ben and His Sensitive Side offers the new album Magnetic Island.
