Mew + –<\/h2>\n

Would you call this album Plus Minus? It\u2019s officially known as +- so this would seem right. It will certainly get people talking, as will the alternative and experimental rock sound this Danish-born band is known for. Released on 27th April the album is the first the band has made in over five years. The third song, The Night Believer, has been released as a single and there are nine more on the album itself including Clinging to a Bad Dream.<\/p>\n

Waxahatchee \u2013 Ivy Tripp<\/h2>\n

Waxahatchee is probably one of the most unusual names for an indie musician. Her new album, Ivy Tripp, released on 7th April this year, follows the previous album released two years ago. With an indie pop feel fused with punk, it\u2019s a fascinating sound. Indeed the album has been widely acclaimed and words such as dusky and diverse have been used to describe this album, so it\u2019s worth a listen.<\/p>\n
