New(ish) Shugo Tokumaru. How did I miss that?
I am a huge Shugo Tokumaru fan. So, I’m not really sure how this amazing album managed to slip under my radar! Port Entropy is brilliant, I would expect nothing less from the Japanese wonder boy.

New Single from PJ Harvey "Written on the...
Here’s the first taste of amazingness from Let England Shake, PJ Harvey’s eighth studio album, which will be released in February of next year. Interesting fact: It was recorded in a 19th century church in Dorset and written mostly on an autoharp, rather than guitar or piano.
