Alex Cameron - Oxy Music
Released 11th March 2022.
Alex Cameron has always been a great storyteller, finding his ways into the depths of the places where not many others are looking, and Oxy Music continues on that trajectory. It’s filled with stories of people who fall outside the system and exist in the grey areas of life. And much like 2017’s Forced Witness, Oxy Music is a work of fiction. In its design - its music, lyrics and tracklist - lies the journey a person can take, if the circumstances present themselves - down the road of heavy drug and alcohol abuse. Initially inspired by Nico Walker’s Cherry, Cameron was spurred into yet another commentary on American Life, this time about the opioid crisis that has taken over the country. Alex says about Oxy Music: “The album is a story, a work of fiction, mostly from the perspective of a man. Starved of meaningful purpose, confused about the state of the world, and in dire need of a reason to live - a person can, and according to the latest statistics, increasingly will, turn to opioids. This is one of those people.” While Oxy Music could be dark, it’s instead brighter and more buoyant than much of Cameron’s previous work, a shift in mood first seen across 2019’s Miami Memory. It’s told from a place of optimism and through the lens of Cameron, in the way that only he can tell it.

Released 17th October 2025 SK says: "TWIABP follow 2021's sprawling, proggy Illusory Walls with a complete volte face- a streamlined, punishing metalcore album with screamed vocals courtesy of guests from the likes of Full Of Hell and END (even chief vocalist David Bello, one of the scene's mellower singers, has a noticeably angrier delivery!) Still full of the strong imagery and thoughtful political critique that has always elevated the Connecticut band's work but foregrounding guitarist Chr...

Released 12th September 2025 SK says: 'Beats courtesy of star producer Paul Epworth give Baxter Dury fresh impetus and as close to a pop album as the London wordsmith can muster. The album's title-track spins a tale of being stood up in a bleak chain pub, cleverly contracted into more salubrious sounding environs, especially cooed in the Estuary accent of frequent collaborator JGrrey. "Return of the Sharp Heads" boasts a nightmarishly woozy bassline that his old man's sparring partner Norman ...

Released 29th August 2025 SK says: 'Another corker from the peppy Kiwi indie quartet led by Liz Stokes. 2022's Expert in a Dying Field pitched Stokes' witty, vulnerable songwriting against power pop guitar rhythms and irresistible vocal harmonies to stunning effect. Tackling similar themes here, there's a layer of subtle experimentation and a strong jangle influence that makes this one a different but just as sweet pleasure.' Written in Los Angeles and self- recorded in the band's hometown of...

Released 22nd August 2025 SK says: 'After rescuing the lockdown summer with 2020's I Feel Alive, Montreal's TOPS return with their first full-length since. There are elements of the sleek 80s pop members Marta Cikojevic and David Carriere explored on their excellent side project outing as Marci, but the album's stars are singer (and sometime flautist) Jane Penny and bassist Riley Fleck, who spearhead the tongue-in-cheek pivot to "evil TOPS" with icy, lovelorn vocals and rumbling low-end that ...
