Top 50 Records Of 2017 Pt. 5 (42 & 41)

Album No. 42 (Sløtface - Try Not To Freak Out)



I remember hearing 'Shave Your Head' when the band were still called Slutface, right from the word go it was obvious this band were going to put out something special, we had two amazing EP's before they finally got round to dropping an album, and it was worth the wait, Haley Shea's vocals immediately grab you and drag you into Sløtface's world of pure melody, your choice of black and yellow on this one.

Single / EP No. 42 (Baby Strange - Extended Play 10")



Another prolific band, Baby Strange had a steady set of singles out before last years 'Want It Need It' album, then they slam out the aptly titled 'extended play' red 10" this year, with more of the same big chorus rock they are so good at.

Album No. 41 (Wolf Alice - Visions Of A Life)



I like Wolf Alice, they're an exceptional band with great songs that range from quiet melody to venomous attacks like 'Yuk Foo', i also kinda pity them because the whole NME hype machine thing that will likely end in the usual backlash, if that is the case don't let it distract you from how good they actually are, available in a range of colors and some with a bonus 7"

Single / EP No.41 (Eat Fast - Public Display Of Affection 7")


Wow, this is messy rock, reminds me of the early garage energy of Hoggboy but with the melodies of early Sunshine Underground, shouldn't work, should be mental but it does, it's a wall of sound with catchyness swimming around inside, both tracks are amazing, and it's on purple as well.
