Next Week in Music | Feb. 18-24, 2019 • 150 New Releases Coming Your Way

Here are all the albums you'll be spinning at this time next week. Or not.

Don’t tell me there’s no good new music — there are more than 150 releases due in the next seven days. Here’s my exhaustive list: Mark your calendars and pre-order your favourites — but don’t blame me if things change at the last minute:


TOP NEW ALBUMS

Gary Clark Jr.
This Land
Based on the powerful title single and some of the Austin singer-guitarist’s other recent material, it’s probably safe to assume this will be the most political and topical disc of his career. And even if that turns out not to be the case, it should still be a treat for anyone who loves to listen to Clark’s world-class fretwork.


Claypool Lennon Delirium
South of Reality

The bassist from Primus and the youngest son of John and Yoko have always seemed like an unlikely pairing. But if you heard their 2016 debut Monolith of Phobos and their 2017 covers EP Lime and Limpid Green, you were probably as pleasantly surprised as I was. I’m optimistically expecting more of the same this time around.


Sleaford Mods
Eton Alive

I’m just going to let acerbic frontman Jason Williamson tell you about the fifth album from his garage-rock duo: “Eton Alive speaks for itself really. Here we are once again in the middle of another elitist plan being digested slowly as we wait to be turned into faeces once more. Some already are, some are dead and the rest of us erode in the belly of prehistoric ideology which depending on our abilities and willingness, assigns to each of us varying levels of comfort that range from horrible to reasonably acceptable, based on contribution. So after the digestive system of the Nobles rejects our inedible bones we exit the Arse of Rule, we fall into the toilet again and at the mercy of whatever policies are holding order in the shit pipe of this tatty civilisation. It is here our flesh regenerates as we rattle into another form, ready, and ripe for order.” Thanks! Couldn’t have said it better myself.
