It's a great week for new releases this Bank Holiday Weekend!!

The Clearing the brand new album from Wolf Alice, releases 22nd August 2025. Written in Seven Sisters and recorded in LA with Grammy-winning, master producer Greg Kurstin last year, The Clearing reveals where Wolf Alice stand sonically in 2025, delivering a supremely confident collection of songs bursting with ambition, ideas and emotion.

Clear and black vinyl and CD formats to choose from

Icelandic singer Laufey's third album, A Matter of Time, is a beautiful masterpiece of introspection about the anguish that comes with life and love.

Coloured Vinyl + 7" and CD versions available

'Lemonheads’ seminal album It’s A Shame About Ray, lovingly reissued for it’s 30th Anniversary. The long overdue reissue includes a slew of extra material, including an unreleased ‘My Drug Buddy’ KCRW session track from 1992 featuring Juliana Hatfield, B-sides from singles ‘It’s A Shame About Ray’ and ‘Confetti’, a track from the ‘Mrs. Robinson / Being Round’ EP, alongside demos that will be released for the first time on vinyl. This reissue celebrates their prestigious fifth album, these deluxe bookback editions feature new liner notes and unseen photos.'

Out Friday is the 10th Anniversary edition of Tyler The Creator's Cherry Bomb - there are two double blue vinyl versions with different covers and CD.

Drum and bass royalty Pendulum release their first new studio album in 15 years, the highly anticipated fourth album, Inertia.

Widely considered to be one of the biggest electronic bands of all time, they hold three platinum albums to their name including renowned debut Hold Your Colour (2005), a UK #1 and #2 for Immersion (2015) and In Silico (2008) and have sold over a million albums in the UK alone.

'Songs for Nina and Johanna is the beautiful new album from James Yorkston, this time featuring not one but two of Sweden’s most recognisable female vocalists. Recorded in Stockholm with Nina Persson (The Cardigans), Johanna Söderberg (First Aid Kit) and members of The Second Hand Orchestra, these are songs about family, love and parenthood. Tender and heart-breaking yet overwhelmingly life-affirming, Songs for Nina and Johanna is a vital addition to the James Yorkston catalogue.'

'On this, the band’s second album, the core emphasis remained a nexus point between country, folk, psych, and classic rock all shrouded in mystery, and Hope Sandoval's trademark drowsy drawl remained swathed in echo. The hit single “Fade Into You” brought Mazzy Star unprecedented success.'

This deluxe 4-CD box set from Sony Music brings together the seminal Columbia recordings of Terry Riley, a visionary composer whose influence on minimalist and electronic music continues to ripple through generations.

All available in store from Friday 22nd August and online now
