The Cribs
Selling A Vibe
Crammed with heart and hooks, Selling A Vibe is a welcome reminder that no one does it quite like The Cribs

Dry Cleaning
Secret Love
Secret Love follows 2022’s Stumpwork, an album that pushed Dry Cleaning’s sound towards more expansive routes, a direction of travel that, with the help of Cate Le Bon’s expert production, has led to their best work yet. It is also their most direct. Print edition only
Record Collector
Dry Cleaning
Secret Love
Secret Love, produced by Cate Le Bon, obliterates the thought [they would struggle to surprise a second time] entirely. Print edition only

Dry Cleaning
Secret Love
Dry Cleaning have lost none of their distinctive edge, their idiosyncratic set-up proving to be endlessly elastic, as big as they want, as small as they need, ?to capture the chaos of the world. No hidden messages here: Secret Love is a wonderful record. Print edition only

Mojo
Jenny on Holiday
Quicksand Heart
Unabashedly emphatic songs that nod to Robyn, Cyndi Lauper and Kate Bush, though the settings are largely those of a US mainstream, '90s grunge-pop band. They flatten the resonance of Hollingworth's lyrics. Print edition only
Uncut
Jenny on Holiday
Quicksand Heart
A revitalising break that underscores the small joys of living and points to blue skies ahead
