Friday is release day. But what to listen to from the sheer endless sea of new records? Don't worry, the NBHAP staff is helping you with the decision. These are our Top 5 recommendations.
Every end of the month we are releasing a round up of reviews of recent releases that touched us the most. These are the personal reviews of hand-curated gems our team dug up (and the occasional chart topper). This time including Sudan Archives, Jockstrap, Sampa the Great, Rina Sawayama, Tamino, Julia, Julia, Khruangbin and Vieux Farka Touré, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Editors, and Nils Frahm.
After almost twenty years in the scene gloomy British post-punkers Editors aren't done yet evolving. With a recently introduced sixth band member their freshly released seventh album takes a surprising turn towards the dancefloor without losing the band's musical appeal. It's a thin line but they manage to dance on it. Longtime band supporter Norman Fleischer spoke with drummer Ed Lay a few days before the band started their European tour.
British indie rockers EDITORS present us a fancy remix for their latest single Sugar. Long time friend MATTHEW DEAR is responsible for giving the tune a certain eclectic groove. The original is taken from the band’s fourth album The Weight of Your Love which was released last summer.
