The New Cue #264 February 24: Philip Selway, U.S. Girls, Gorillaz, Heartworms, Miss Tiny, Avalon Emerson, Lawrence, Tian Qiyi, Tiny Ruins, Shame, Gruff Rhys

24 February, 2023

Hello,

It’s Friday and boy have we got a bumper Recommender edition to fire you off into the weekend. No wait, not yet, you’ve got to read it first! You got overexcited again. We talk to Philip née Phil Selway about his new solo record, Algiers pick us An Album To Blow Your Mind, and we’ve got the recording of an interview Ted recently did with Lawrence at a live event at Rough Trade. We also do some recommending, otherwise they’d be no recommending in the Recommender issue and that just wouldn’t do.

All this shit-hot content is available to paying subscribers only (it costs a fiver a month to subscribe, you should do it, your mum does it). It would be unfortunate if the use of the phrase “shit-hot” sends this email straight to your spam wouldn’t it? Especially now that I’ve used it twice. Oh well, live a little! Here, have a playlist:

Enjoy the edition,

Ted, Niall and Chris
