|  | Jon's Record Of The Month is... Golden Silvers - True Romance True! Ro! Mance! Jon's pick of April is the groove-filled album from these new indie disco-pop boys who recently impressed us at New Slang and at a stripped down instore at the end of this month. How 'Arrows Of Eros' isn't a massive hit single yet we just don't know. |
| | Mike's Record Of The Month is... Doom - Born Like This Mike's choice for April is the new record from hip-hop supervillain MF Doom! Just straight-up classic-style hip-hop the way it was supposed to always be, with an added touch of comic book charm. Some sweet samples and guest spots from Raekwon and Ghostface too! Not to be missed. |
| | Dave's Record Of The Month is... The Xcerts - In The Cold Wind We Smile Dave (quite rightly) goes for this brilliant little debut from the Scottish trio who have played for us a few times now, and did a great acoustic instore to celebrate the release of this. We've been waiting some time to see this band realise their full potential and it's pretty clear they've done so. A band with a bright future. |
| | Jane's Record Of The Month is... Hundred Reasons - Quick The Word, Sharp The Action Jane's choice for April comes from long-standing UK rock heroes and long-time Banquet favourites Hundred Reasons. Wrestling the album back from a collapsed former label and finding time to throw a few new ones on too, the album proves the band still have it after all this time and shows why they are so important to our scene. |
| | Milly's Record Of The Month is... Bat For Lashes - Two Suns Milly's choice for April comes from Mercury Music Prize-nominated Natasha Khan's second album, a more grand and expansive continuation of her first. Escaping the Kate Bush comparisons that dogged her first time round, this is easily an improvement by an already amazing artist. |
| | Sean's Record Of The Month is... Dananananaykroyd - Hey Everyone! Sean picks another bunch of Scots for his choice of April. Once again, initial promise gets totally realised as one of the best bands in the UK puts out an album of wierd, brilliant, fun and absolutely mental pop-fuelled post-hardcore. In a parallel universe the wall of cuddles reigns supreme and 'Some Dresses' is a #1 single forever. |
| | Adrian's Record Of The Month is... Manchester Orchestra - Mean Everything To Nothing Adrian goes for the return of the Brand New-affiliated indie-rockers who caused an internet storm with their debut record put another undeniably flawless album. Don't you hate it when bands make being great look this easy? |
