Screen Wives second LP
added by Andy Malcolm on Thursday May 30 2019 in New ReleasesUK queercore stalwarts Screen Wives released their second album digitally on bandcamp on 6th May here: https://screenwives.bandcamp.com/album/gay-abandon
Husbandry detailed the struggle of queers escaping stifling provincial towns and establishing themselves against the backdrop of the AIDS crisis. On Gay Abandon Screen Wives consider the question: "What Next?". The answer is apparently to throw a defiant coming out party. The album is full of urgent and scrappy post punk, actually reminds me a bit of Lovesick in places, maybe it's the vocals.

Uzeda - 'Quocumque jeceris stabit' LP
added by Alex Deller on Tuesday May 28 2019 in Pre-ordersLongstanding noise-rockers Uzeda will be releasing their first album in 13 years (!!!) this July. It'll be called 'Quocumque jeceris stabit' and comes to us courtesy of Temporary Residence Records.
A bit about it from the label: "Recorded, as always, by longtime friend and collaborator, Steve Albini, 'Quocumque jeceris stabit' sees Uzeda picking up where they left off, albeit with the sands and scars of time cutting new creative paths within the reputable map through which Uzeda have traveled for the past four decades. Vocalist Giovanna Cacciola's fragile, dynamic rasp still cuts through the jagged guitar of husband and fellow Bellini member, Agostino Tilotta, while the rhythm section of bassist Raffaele Gulisano and drummer Davide Oliveri provide the sturdy foundation on which all Uzeda songs are built. But there's something noticeably different now, a kind of melodic tension that was always hinted at but perhaps never fully displayed until now. It is a sound and a feel that Uzeda was made for, and one that unquestionably defines them."

added by Alex Deller on Tuesday May 28 2019 in New ReleasesFealty's 'Peace Is Our Problem' 7" is out now via Richter Scale Records. The label describes them as playing "horrible (but in a good way) distorted hardcore punk from Brooklyn, New York," which pretty much sums it up.
