About this product
2015 collaboration between Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins) and Mark Gardener (Ride). Their former bands work ought to give hints as to where a collaboration between the pair might lead, but this remarkable new album has it's own chemistry and is an unexpected treasure from the two well established artists. The pairing of Guthrie and Gardener might, at first glance, be expected to deliver a very particular brand of guitar-driven euphoria, however, Universal Road, defies expectations across ten tracks whose diversity is one of the album's great strengths. At a time when fascination with the shoegaze movement of the late '80s and early '90s is enjoying a revival, whether it be through band reformations-including the forthcoming reunion of Gardener's former band Ride-or adulatory documentaries-2014's Beautiful Noise-it can be easy to acquire a form of nostalgic tunnel vision. Guthrie and Gardener's Universal Road leads US in a fresh direction.

Quiet Riot goes loud with GRIII, their fifth studio album. Still featuring Kevin DuBrow on vocals (before his departure), this album has Riot at their most stadium-rock, with hard-hitting percussion and soaring guitars on track after track. Features the hit song InchThe Wild and the YoungInch.

The new album from long-standing Bombay Bicycle Club collaborator/touring member and former member of Cash + David.'Pity Party' is the new album from Liz Lawrence. Liz dug deep and discovered her own sound, taught herself how to produce and soon realised that she had become good enough to make her own music in the way she wanted to make it, on her own terms. The fruits of her labour are brought together for this new album. She wrote six of the songs in just five days (while holed up in a dilapidated friends' house in Cornwall) - proving that forcing herself out of her comfort zone and embracing a solitary existence - for a short time at least- reaped huge benefits for her personally and musically.Liz Lawrence is a friend and frequent touring collaborator of Bombay Bicycle Club and previously one half of electro-pop group Cash+David.Previously supporting Bloc Party, Lacy Dacus, and Snail Mail. This year LizLawrence has a headline tour as well as supporting Bombay Bicycle Club and heading to SXSW to showcase her new album.
