I don't consider myself a 'fan' of any band/artist (I think that suggests being a bit uncritical), but I probably come closest to that status with Nick Cave, who I've been listening to since the first Birthday Party album. Anyway, a couple of more recent purchases, which are substantially different to Ghosteen...

Um Dada by Stephen Mallinder (ex Cabaret Voltaire, currently Wrangler and Creep Show). Nice electronica, almost retro at times. On vinyl, came with a lossless download.

Sonic Citadel by Lightning Bolt. Apparently a move towards 'pop music' by Lightning Bolt, though I don't quite see it. Heavily processed bass and drums, good and noisy. On vinyl, came with a 320k mp3 download.

It is finally here, the second album of Geike. Many people probably remember her as the lead singer of the band Hooverphonic.
Eight years after her first solo album we are blessed with Lost In Time

But it was worth the wait. Great album!

Aranis - Jelimena from the album Songs from the Mirage
Sort of 'chamber prog'

Jungle By Night - Livingstone

This is their latest album.
A mixture of genres creates an interesting music style. I kind of lost them out of my sight since their first album.
Shame on me.
