The Week in New Music & Dig Me Out Podcast
Arcwelder - Continue
Arcwelder, an influential alternative punk rock band, has made a remarkable comeback, after 25 years, with their new album "Continue". Recorded at Terrarium Studios and mixed at Magpie by renowned professionals, "Continue" offers a fresh collection of tracks, each highlighting Arcwelder's distinct sound that blends elements of grunge and post-punk.
Shed Seven - A Matter of Time
Shed Seven, the acclaimed Britpop band, has released their sixth studio album, "A Matter of Time." This album stands out as a highlight in their three-decade-long career, returning to their roots and drawing inspiration from influential bands like The Smiths, R.E.M., and U2. Featuring their first collaborations with vocalists such as Happy Mondays' Rowetta and Reverend and the Makers' Laura McClure, the album showcases a diverse range of styles. A particular standout is the epic track "Throwaways," featuring Pete Doherty, which serves as a powerful anthem.
Liam Gallagher and John Squire - Just Another Rainbow (Single)
Liam Gallagher and John Squire, iconic figures in the Manchester music scene, have released their collaborative single "Just Another Rainbow." This marks their first musical project together, hinting at more music to come. The single was recorded during a three-week session in Los Angeles, produced by Greg Kurstin, who also played bass, with Joey Waronker on drums. Gallagher praised Squire's songwriting, while Squire described the single as both about disappointment and one of the most uplifting tracks they've made together. This collaboration signals an exciting new chapter for both artists with more music dropping later in the year.

Thank you as always for the shoutout/signal boost! I really appreciate it!
My runaway vote would be for Jawbreaker's lovely, embattled 'Dear You.' There's a whole novel or two worth of backstory there. Like most fans of the band, it took me far too long to warm up to the record, but when we finally did it was worth it.
Second place would be a vote for June. Superchunk cast a long shadow over the NC scene, but there were a ton of other great bands there at the same time. June only had the one record (I think??), but it's a good one.
