Maxinquaye
Tricky’s Maxinquaye crept out in 1995. All smoke, bass and whispered paranoia. It was trip-hop’s darkest hour - maybe its finest.

What’s new?
Things We Lost in the Fire
In a frozen corner of Minnesota, a band turned down the volume and turned up the heartache. Released in 2001, Things We Lost in the Fire is Low at their most powerful.
Black Metal
In 2014, Dean Blunt released Black Metal - a record as cryptic as its title. Lo-fi indie, dub, folk and trap fragments, stitched into a broken love story.
Treasure
In 1984, Cocteau Twins released Treasure - a swirling, luminous record that's both otherworldly and inexplicably moving.
Le Tigre
In 1999, Le Tigre kicked the door in. Their debut is bratty, brilliant and bursting with DIY joy.
Marquee Moon
In 1977, Television released a record that sounded like nothing else. A post-punk masterpiece that's jagged, poetic and stripped of excess.
