Download Zip File 1. Inspiral Carpets - Your So Good For Me (Cow) This has been around for a few months but in time honored fashion I've only just found out about it. It's (or was) a new single from Inspiral Carpets, Their first in about sixteen years I'm told. This could of course have been a disaster in line with many other reformed bands recently. Perhaps because of the departure or non reappearance of singer Tom Hingley and his replacement with the guy who was the Carpets original voice man Stephen Holt the sound seems pretty fresh ...

Every year, Record Store Day is getting bigger and bigger in the UK, with more and more people queuing up to get their hot little hands on limited edition releases, special re-pressings of classic albums, and enjoy shedloads of live music events held in celebration. In the wake of last year's crippling PIAS warehouse fire, which saw thousands and thousands of pounds in losses for independent record stores across the country, RSD2012 stands to be all the more special, and all the more worth while supporting, to help independent labels and artists get back on track. But remember, not ...

Last year, under the name Milk Maid , Martin Cohen released  Yucca , a fuzzy, jangling record that switched genres with each track. On one song, the Manchester bedroom artist would paint himself as a 1990s indie rock devotee. On the next, he'd be fingerpicking a quiet, echoing folk song. With "Do Right", the first track he's letting go from Mostly No (June 26 in the US, July 9 in the UK via FatCat ), the shapeshifting continues. Here, he takes the form of a screeching, reverb-drenched West Coast grunge fan. He sings about California, he bookends the song with feedback ...
