Exciting news this week, with the auspicious arrival of three CDs of new music from a big favourite round these parts. Anyone care to hazard a guess who it might be?

I’ll put you out of your misery right away – it is, of course, the mighty Vibracathedral Orchestra, back with three separate discs of untethered Yorkshire psych. Who else could it have been, realistically?

In completely unconnected news, the other really nice new thing to make the list is a live album from Bill Callahan (featuring, capriciously enough, precisely nothing from “Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle”). Oh, and the James Murphy score to the new Noah Baumbach film, which is pretty typical, understated score-to-an-indieish-film fare on first listen, but I obviously need to give it another proper go.

1 James Murphy – Greenberg Original Soundtrack (Parlophone)

2 Ken Camden – Lethargy & Repurcussion (Kranky)
