Anyway, on to one of mine…I took a punt on this
Astrel K - The Foreign Department.
Ex-Frontman of Ulrika Spacek, his second solo album. It’s a bit of melancholy pop, shades of lots of things but I'm getting High Llamas and Mercury Rev. It’s a breakup album but the sort that you’d listen to in a nice relaxing warm bath with subdued lighting
It'll probably go completely under the radar but it’s actually very good. Much better than Ulrika Spacek, who I kinda like but this is a couple of levels up from that, much more polished with string arrangements at the like. Very well (self) produced
