Record Store Day UK has announced The 1975 as its 2023 ambassadors. “The guys and I are really proud to be ambassadors for Record Store Day this year”, says frontman Matty Healy. ”Independent record stores are the lifeblood of the music industry and have played a crucial role in our story so far. It couldn’t be more important to support their vital community and culture”.

RELEASES

Chat Pile have released the video for ‘Tropical Beaches Inc’ from their ‘God’s Country’ album. “’Tropical Beaches Inc’ is a favourite among the band and probably the song that’s the most fun to play live”, they say. “It has some of the dumbest riffs on the whole album and we gleefully lose a couple brain cells every time we play it”.

Shonen Knife have released new single ‘Mujinto Rock’, the opening track from new album ‘Our Best Place’, which is out on 15 Feb.

Jonnine has released new single ‘Tea For Two (Boo)’. The HTRK vocalist’s new solo album ‘Maritz’ is out on 16 Feb.
