New records to look out for – March 27

Here are some of the newly announced records that we’re looking forward to!

Phoxjaw – Royal Swan

Bristol’s Phoxjaw will finally be releasing their debut album Royal Swan on July 3 through Hassle Records.

The album takes you back to a medieval England as well as detailing tension in modern day Britain and was born from a cabin-fevered recording experience at Devil’s Bridge Cottage in rural Wales.

LÜT – Mersmak

Norwegian punks LÜT will release their new album Mersmak through Indie Recordings on September 25.

Markus Danjord said: “We went through highs and lows writing this album, and it was definitely a learning process which made the band stronger as a whole. As such; making this album has been a type of contemplation. We’re excited to have finished the ‘difficult second album’ and couldn’t have hoped for a better result. It’s great to finally be able to show the world what we’ve been working on,

Australians Ebonivory will release the first of their two-part album The Long Dream I on June 5 through Wild Thing Records.

Charlie Prowlett said: “We are absolutely beaming with excitement knowing that the first instalment of our upcoming 2-part album, The Long Dream will finally see the light of day on the 5th of June. Entirely self-produced over the course of 4 years, The Long Dream became infused with self-referential hardship and internal disaster that only further serves its story. Every song presents a completely unique reimagining of what progressive music is capable of, while maintaining cohesive melodic bonds like a sequence of dreams that makes perfect sense, but only until you commit it to words. It is a twisting journey that weaves through depression and elation; past, present, and future. This album is the cornerstone of EBONIVORY. It encompasses everything we are passionate about as a band, and represents our leap of faith into the raging storm that is the modern music industry”.

Tracklist:

1 Introduction
2 Hanmer Street
