#TracksOf2024
Jack White “That’s how I’m feeling”
Like having “The White Stripes” back. JW rocks out with a blistering track that does everything you want from Mr W. A standout track.

The Smile “Read the room”
So much going on in this song which is why Radiohead fans keep buying the records from the side projects.
Rock to mellow pop to rock. This is an exciting & exceptional track. “Keep this sh*t away from me”…

The Lottery Winners & Reverend & The Makers “You again”
Those scamps from Greater Mancs know how to mine gold from a collaboration & this is another belter. It’s a grower & one that captures the summertime (if only the U.K. could have one!!).

Bill Ryder-Jones “If tomorrow starts without me”
A great track from, maybe, the best album of the year.
This is life affirming and deeply moving. A song that really moved me & hope you enjoy this beautiful piece of music.

Fontaines DC “In the modern world”.
Just beating “starburster” is this indie sounding epic that I catch myself singing when I’m lost doing life stuff.
It comes from one of the albums of the year as well so make sure you have it for Xmas!

The Cure “All I ever am”.
I pick this for the lyrical & emotional connection I’ve made with the song.
The lyrics & the singing dominate the music (rest of the album feels the other way round) so it standouts on a standout album.

Basic “new auspicious”
A song that got played in my car many times this year.
I love this track!
If instrumentals are your thing & you enjoy a beating rhythm section simply doing its thing then this is essential listening.

Sunstack Jones “luminous hands”.
Glorious.
Mellow.
Wonderful.
Beautiful.
This is one of the stunners of the year. Elegant with wonderful production.
Wait for those guitars to kick in after the 3mins mark!

The The “cognitive dissident”
Matt Johnson returns with a real banger that captures the madness of modern politics & the world in his own unique lyrically form. Backed my a bluesy soundtrack that keeps the lyrics swimming in an ocean of murk.

Whitelands feat. Dottie (Deary) “Tell me about it”
A collaboration in new #shoegaze band heaven. Simply a dreamy track to get lost into. One of my personal favs of the year and I can’t recommend this enough. Spellbinding.

Nick Cave & the bad seeds throw everything & then some into the new album & nothing captured this more than the title track “Wild God”.
A truly epic soundtrack to your life.

Mdou Moctar “Imouhar”
A rocker and a half for anyone who likes their guitars to be heard.
