It's album listening party night on the Yellow Brit Road! This month, we're listening to revolutionary Welsh rock band Manic Street Preachers' 1994 third studio album, The Holy Bible. A brutal and breathtaking collection of ideas, poetry, literature and revolution, it is today regarded as one of the best albums of the 1990s, and one of the Manics' own finest, and an album that kicked off the Cool Cymru scene in mid-late 90s Britain.

Of course, all of that was supplanted by a flood of excellent new releases, from Franz Ferdinand Nova Twins Yard Act Black Country, New Road Young T & Bugsy Tribeless Fuzz Lightyear FloFilz and Alfa Mist Collect Call

Rufus also has a new release, a live version of Unfollow

Manchester indie rock band The Speed of Sound have been around for a long time, and know the indie scene well. They're making their dent on it once again by releasing their fifth studio album, Museum of Tomorrow, on 17 September 2021. The album orbits indie but reaches out to include diverse influences including New Wave, synth rock, jazz, pop, art rock, amongst others, and is a fantastic listen.
