Rough Trade Album of the Month Club: May 2016 Pack
An excellent month.
Core album:
LUH - Spiritual Songs for Lovers to Sing + Bonus Disc. 9/10. Probably my fave album of the year.
Margo Price - Midwester Farmer's Daughter. 8/10. Gotta love country music. Incidentally ever since joining the club I've never bought a country album.
Woods - City Sun Eater in the River of Light.
Next up:
June - Minor Victories or Max Jury.
July - Beyond the Wizard's Sleeve????
August - Wild Beasts???

Rough Trade Album of the Month Club: April 2016 Pack
A very good batch!!
Core Album: Black Mountain - IV + Bonus Disc. Although not as good as the self-titled debut I really liked the heavy psychedelia of IV. Definitely going in my top ten of 2016. 8.5/10
Cullen Omori - New Misery + Bonus Disc. A good solid album with some pretty catchy tracks. This is the kind of album that I'll revisit now and then and like it more with each spin. 7.5/10
Richmond Fontaine - You Can't go back if there's nothing to go back to. Five years ago I received RF's previous album from the club, the High Country. This new album is just as good with top lyrics. 8/10
PLUS - now subscribers receive a monthly magazine rather than the tiny fold out pamphlet. Hurrah!
Next up:
May - LUH (Hopefully)
June - Max Jury?? Minor Victories??
July - Beyond the Wizard's Sleeve?? ( oh please!!)
