Canadian alternative poppet Grimes tops the new edition of our loop with her Avril Lavigne-esque power pop anthem ‘Flesh Without Blood’, from her widely acclaimed second album ‘Art Angels’.
Highest entry of the week is by Kiwi alt-country star Marlon Williams, whose controversial video is raising eyebrows for its full nudity and violent content. He’s followed by a pre-christmas avalanche of new releases featuring the latest tracks by Tindersticks with Lhasa de Sela; The Big Pink; Erykah Badu; The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart; Frankie Cosmos; JT The Goon; Bibio; Aphex Twin; J-Lin; J Ralph With Antony; Lizzo; Hinds; Daugher; Banks and two returning hip-hop legends: Pusha T and Missy Elliott teaming up with Pharrell for her long delayed comeback.
