Fleet Foxes have an ability to interweave folk / roots sounds with seemingly effortless, hymnal pop songs that have a similar lush quality to classic Beach Boys and Arcade Fire records. Grand, dramatic stuff. CD - Bella Union - BELLACD167 - £6.99  Andrew Bird - Fitz And The Dizzy SpellsWith the acclaim that followed the release of his 'Noble Beast' album earlier this year, he now provides some raw reworkings tracks from that album like 'Tenuousness' ('Ten-You-Us') and 'Anonanimal' ('See The Enemy'). CD - Bella Union - BELLACD200 - £6.99  Wavves - WavvesSavage melody, lo-fi trashy punk rock style.

CD - Bella Union - BELLACD205 - £11.99  Lone Wolf - The Devil And ILeeds' Paul Marshall releases an album under his Lone Wolf alias, ironically with a considerable band of collaborators. Folk-inflected, but with rock elements, and draped in horns and strings, this is a really impressive set of songs with some dark lyrical themes. Highly recommended if you like John Grant or Sam Amidon - lyrically there's a little of Nick Cave here too. Check. CD - Bella Union - BELLACD219 - £12.99  Laura Veirs - July FlameHer seventh album, Laura Veirs reverts to the simpler mode of her earlier records with country twangs and sparse piano underpinning her understated voice... wonderful stuff on Bella Union.

LP - Bella Union - BELLAV240 - £16.99  Department Of Eagles - Archive 2003-2006The missing link in the Department Of Eagles story. Effectively sketches of a work in progress, this is necessarily lo-fi and quite haphazard, but showcases an ambition that leapfrogs its humble beginnings, creating a DIY take on a tradition that reaches from Van Dyke Parks to Daniel Rossen's 'other' band, Grizzly Bear... CD - Bella Union - BELLACD248 - £13.99  Wavves - King Of The BeachUnlike some of the Wavves' other material which was recorded haphazardly (but beautifully) ontheir laptop, 'King Of The Beach' was worked over for three months at the renowned Sweet Tea Recording studios Oxford, Mississippi. And it's the most refined, brilliant statement from the Wavves for time...well recommended. CD - Bella Union - BELLACD252 - £13.99  Low Anthem - Oh My God, Charlie DarwinSplit between sublime ballads & gritty folk rock, this has already caused a huge buzz from it's limited initial pressing. Comparisons with both Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver are inevitable - but Low Anthem have a strikingly rootsy character all of their own...

LP - Bella Union - BELLAV252 - £14.99  Philip Selway - By Some MiraclePhilip Selway of Radiohead fame with the first single from his solo debut album. B/w 'Running Blind'. 7" - Bella Union - BELLAV253 - £4.99  Philip Selway - FamilialHumble, unpretentious and heart-warming album from Radiohead's drummer - quite the opposite in many ways to his work within this world famous group... many people may be underwhelmed (if they like the extravagances of Radiohead), but this is a beautiful, almost folksy album that will certainly find many fans - even if it sidesteps many people's somewhat obvious expectations...
