The Thrill of It All is the second studio album by English singer Sam Smith. It will be released on 3 November 2017 through Capitol Records. "Too Good at Goodbyes" was released as the album's lead single on 8 September 2017. On 6 October 2017, Smith released "Pray", a gospel-tinged ballad in collaboration with Timbaland, prompted by time spent in Iraq with the charity War Child.

Japanese exclusive reissue of 2000 compilation. This Toshiba/EMI pressing features an OBI strip (different from the last Japanese pressings issued in 1990) & an insert with Japanese text & lyrics in Japanese & English. Manufactured & pressed in Japan. Gatefold sleeve. 2003.

A gradual crescendo of spirit-lifting gospel introduces "Yesterday's Gone", perfectly fitting for the debut longplayer from the young master of 'confessional hip hop'. Indeed as Ben Coyle-Larner spits sombre bars over "The Isle Of Arran"s soulful grooves, the South Londoner touches on family, bereavement and religion, all with the same intricate flow and honest delivery. It's a sound that's at odds with the current slew of mumbling, stumbling, gangtas who dominate the charts and mixtapes, celebrating gold, diamonds and designer footwear as they breeze through meme-references and barely decipherable hooks. Rather, Loyle Carner takes his cues from Mos Def, Talib Kweli and London's own Roots Manuva, delivering conscious rhymes over gentle, jazzy grooves. Intimate, intricate and tough to imitate, Loyle Carner is entirely relatable as he treats us to everyday tales of family, food, romance and regret, laying his growing pains bare across a dozen tracks and a couple of well placed skits. If the recent ATCQ LP's put you in the mood for some proper hip hop, then this is your new jam.

20世纪末摇滚乐传世预言
★1998葛莱美最佳另类音乐专辑、Pitchfork九零年代百大专辑第一名。
★探讨人类集体内在世界，将「另类音乐」艺术化的指标专辑。
「摇滚乐在《OK Computer》里完结与重生，20年后，它仍像一则魔幻的预言。」――陈德政
《OK Computer》在1997年发行后，引起全球一片轰动，一举夺下1998葛莱美最佳另类音乐专辑，Pitchfork九零年代百大专辑更列为第一名。这张专辑将当年的「另类音乐」推向更艺术化的层次，谱写出20世纪人类集体的内在世界，如消费主义、社会疏离感，虽然乐团本身只是想再任性地制作一张新专辑，甚至完全没有想到这是否是一张「概念专辑」。
这张专辑产出了〈Paranoid Android〉、〈Karma Police〉、〈No Surprises〉等传世名曲，然而这些歌曲不是长度太长、就是气氛过于晦暗，唱片公司完全不认为具有商业潜力，结果这些歌曲不但成功打入排行榜，每一支在电视台强力放送的MV，也成为音乐与影像结合的经典范本。
二十周年纪念版除了原专辑的12首歌曲重新后制，还包括8首B-side歌曲、3首未发表歌曲。《OK Computer》不只是代表一个「另类音乐」世代，整张专辑唱出了整个世纪人们的心声，即使2017年的今天，人类还是同样地孤寂。
Featuring Remastered OK COMPUTER, B-Sides and Three Never Before Released Tracks: “I Promise,” “Lift,” “Man Of War” Rescued from defunc t formats, prized from dark cupboards and brought to light after two decades in cold storage… OKNOTOK will be issued June 23 on XL Recordings, coinciding (roughly) with the original 1997 release date(s) of Radiohead’s landmark third album OK COMPUTER. OKNOTOK features the original OK COMPUTER twelve track album, eight B-sides, and the Radiohead completist’s dream: “I Promise,” “Lift,” and “Man Of War.” The original studio recordings of these three previously unreleased and long sought after OK COMPUTER era tracks finally receive their first official issue on OKNOTOK. All material on OKNOTOK is newly remastered from the original analogue tapes. Digital formats, double CD, and triple 180g LP versions of the 23 track album will be released widely on June 23rd. OK COMPUTER was originally released on various dates ranging from May to July 1997. Produced by the band and Nigel Godrich, the album is widely cited as one of the greatest works of Radiohead’s--or any artist’s--catalogue and was the first Radiohead record to reach #1 in the UK and to be be nominated for the Album of the Year GRAMMY. The album features singles “Paranoid Android,” “Karma Police,” “Lucky” and “No Surprises.” In 2015, The National Recording Registry selected OK COMPUTER to be preserved in the Library of Congress as a recording that has proven “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”

Digitally remastered and expanded three disc (two CDs + PAL/Region 2 DVD) edition of this 1994 album. This deluxe remastered edition features the non-album A and B-sides, as well as demos from the collections of Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler. Also making their first ever appearances are the much sought-after, unedited versions of 'The Wild Ones' and 'The Asphalt World'. The DVD features newly-discovered and previously-unseen footage of the band at the Casino de Paris, playing the Dog Man Star songs before the album recording sessions, and the band playing in FNAC in Paris, along with the song-films specially created for the Dog Man Star tour. The bonus feature is a candid February 2011 interview with Bernard and Brett about the making of the album, along with a short film put together by Simon Gilbert from his own contemporary camcorder footage. Edsel.

Inspired by Leicester City’s extraordinary Premier League win and the multicultural euphoria that swept their hometown, Kasabian prolong the party. Serge Pizzorno approached the band's sixth album as a reaction to the sonic experimentation of 2014’s 48:13—its songs were written on guitar and almost all over a whirlwind six weeks of efficiency. They capture a songwriter basking in his sweetspot. “Good Fight” and “Comeback Kid” and “Bless This Acid House” are glorious anthems-in-waiting, while Pizzorno’s own favourite track—the hypnotic, groove-heavy “Are You Looking for Action?”—even manages the remarkable trick of clocking in at over eight minutes and feeling immediate.

Harry Styles has been working in some solo tracks during this year and his anticipated solo debut is expected to be released sometime in 2017 via Syco and Columbia Records.

"It felt like we were in a movie that had a totally implausible ending..."
Slowdive's second act as a live blockbuster has already been rapturously received around the world. Highlights thus far include a festival-conquering, sea-of-devotees Primavera Sound performance, of which Pitchfork noted: "The beauty of their crystalline sound is almost hard to believe, every note in its perfect place."
"It was just nice to realise that there was a decent amount of interest in it," says principal songwriter Neil Halstead. The UK shoegaze pioneers have now channelled such seemingly impossible belief into a fourth studio opus which belies his characteristic modesty. Self-titled with quiet confidence, Slowdive's stargazing alchemy is set to further entrance the faithful while beguiling a legion of fresh ears.
Deftly swerving what co-vocalist/guitarist Rachel Goswell terms "a trip down memory lane", these eight new tracks are simultaneously expansive and the sonic pathfinders' most direct material to date. Birthed at the band's talismanic Oxfordshire haunt The Courtyard - "It felt like home," enthuses guitarist Christian Savill - their diamantine melodies were mixed to a suitably hypnotic sheen at Los Angeles' famed Sunset Sound facility by Chris Coady (perhaps best known for his work with Beach House, one of countless contemporary acts to have followed in Slowdive's wake).
"It's poppier than I thought it was going to be," notes Halstead, who was the primary architect of 1995's previous full-length transmission Pygmalion. This time out the group dynamic was all-important. "When you're in a band and you do three records, there's a continuous flow and a development. For us, that flow re-started with us playing live again and that has continued into the record."
Drummer and loop conductor Simon Scott enhanced the likes of 'Slomo' and 'Falling Ashes' with abstract textures conjured via his laptop's signal processing software. A fecund period of experimentation with "40-minute iPhone jams" allowed the unit to then amplify the core of their chemistry. "Neil is such a gifted songwriter, so the songs won. He has these sparks of melodies, like 'Sugar For The Pill' and 'Star Roving', which are really special. But the new record still has a toe in that Pygmalion sound. In the future, things could get very interesting indeed."
This open-channel approach to creativity is reflected by Slowdive's impressively wide field of influence, from indie-rock avatars to ambient voyagers - see the tribute album of cover versions released by Berlin electronic label Morr Music. As befits such evocative visionaries, you can also hear Slowdive through the silver screen: New Queer Cinema trailblazer Gregg Araki has featured them on the soundtracks to no less than four of his films.
"When I moved to America in 2008 I was working in an organic grocery store," recalls Christian. "Kids started coming in and asking if it was true I had played in Slowdive. That's when I started thinking, 'OK, this is weird!'"
Neil Halstead: "We were always ambitious. Not in terms of trying to sell records, but in terms of making interesting records. Maybe, if you try and make interesting records, they're still interesting in a few years time. I don't know where we'd have gone if we had carried straight on. Now we've picked up a different momentum. It's intriguing to see where it goes next."
The world has finally caught up with Slowdive. This movie could run and run...
