Here's part three for this years Album of the Month series.
Mould 'Hoping as a Coping Mechanism' (5dB Records)
'Hoping as a Coping Mechanism' is the debut album from Mould, a post-punk trio from Bristol. The 13 tracks were recorded at London's 5dB Studios and produced by Sean Oakley. It is a bold record, with startling guitars and sharp lyrics
Widowspeak 'Roses' (Captured Tracks)
'Roses' is the latest album from Widowspeak, who are an indie rock duo (Molly Hamilton and Robert Earl Thomas) from Brooklyn, New York. This album focuses on the nuances of romance, with soft vocals pitched lightly over a range of guitar lines and riffs.
Ignea is the latest album from Mirror Revelations, a 3-piece from Mexico. Available through Fuzz Club, the 7 tracks showcase a powerful combination of psych, kraut, and industrial rock, with the relentless drums and bass a key component to their sound.
Cola, the Canadian lo-fi post punk trio, return with their third album 'Cost Of Living Adjustment' through Fire Talk. Whilst maintaining their original lo-fi spirit, the new album moves into a more refined and developed sound, and it's all the more engaging listen for it.
Teleheath 'Green World Image' (Sub Pop)
'Green World Image' is the 2nd album from Seattle based indie punks Teleheath, and their first via Sub Pop. The content of the album deals with what they see as many societal failings, whilst the music is a blend of energetic power pop and driving punk rock.
Westside Cowboy 'It Goes On' Island Records
Former winners of the Music Liberation approved Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition (2025), Westside Cowboy release their debut album 'It Goes On' via Island Records. The 11-track album showcases the band's appreciation of Americana, albeit bringing in their own British take on it with nods to punk, and folk, whilst repeated listens are recommended to build a deeper connection to their ideals.
