Polica
Give You the Ghost
Drawing elements from Portishead, Bon Iver, Fleetwood Mac, and Eurythmics, Polica is a group featuring chanteuse Channy Caselle from Roma di Luna, Ryan Olson of Gayngs, Vampire Hands guitarist Chris Bierden, and drummers (that's right, there are two) Drew Christopherson from Digitata and Ben Ivascu from STNNNG.
"Amongster" opens with buzzing, reverberated guitar leads, over which Caselle's ghostly, layered vocals hover like a mist. An Auto-Tune modification makes it sound like she's singing behind a whirring fan in "I See My Mother"—here you can really notice the finesse of two drummers playing over dub-inspired bass and an electric guitar approximating a synthesizer with help from an electronic bow. "Violent Games" plays with more menacing tones. Dark drumming patterns give chase to a driving, distorted bass line, while Caselle croons through a slew of gurgling effects. The standout tune "The Maker" gives Caselle more room to stretch out and exercise her dynamic vocal range, though "Wandering Star" is the jam that could make Polica famous.

Limits of Language
''Dinked Edition' is on 'transparent blue / white splatter' Includes exclusive bonus flexidisc and a signed art print. Foil-numbered sleeve /1000. For avoidance of doubt, the centre is a standard spindle size, and not dinked. Field Music announce ‘Limits of Language’, their first album of new music for almost four years. Back in 2022, the touring cycle for the ‘Flat White Moon’ album ended with a sense of finality. For the first time since the Mercury-nominated ‘Plumb’ ten years earlier, Peter and David had no plan for what, if anything, would come next. However, after six years of continuation, they were clear that if Field Music was to carry on then it would have to be different, in both sound and scope. Solo projects followed with 2023 seeing the arrival of David’s quietly-jazzy ‘Soft Struggles’, the playful of electronica of Peter’s ‘Blowdry Colossus’ alongside a limited-issue brass collaboration LP ‘Binding Time’ and the vault-raiding ‘John Monroe EP’, made with original Field Music keyboard player Andrew Moore.It was these albums that provided fresh impetus for what was to become the new Field Music record. Whilst Peter amassed the instrumental compositions which become ‘Blowdry Colossus’, he was also tinkering with a batch of songs which would form the basis of ‘Limits of Language’, songs which mixed synthesised textures with off-the-cuff flickers of guitar and layers of disorientating found-sound percussion.
