The Monochrome Set

Ducks Ltd just released their fantastic second album, ‘Harm’s Way,’ and their janglepop list includes classics by Orange Juice, The Feelies, The Clean and more.

‘ Allhallowtide‘ is post-punk / indiepop greats The Monochrome Set‘s 16th album.

The Jazz Butcher’s ’The Highest in the Land,’ completed just before he died in October 2021, is out this week.

This week in Indie Basement: reviews of new albums from late reggae legend U-Roy, Broken Social Scene’s Kevin Drew, A Place to Bury Strangers, and more.

From The Cure, R.E.M. and The Smiths, to Broken Social Scene, Pavement, Portishead and more, here are 20 songs by bands where the singers keep their mouths shut.

Meanwhile, The Monochrome Set’s spring tour has been rescheduled for later this year.

The Monochrome Set’s two classic 1980 albums, Love Zombies and Strange Boutique, are getting official 40th anniversary vinyl represses on April 3.

Listen to new songs by Rico Nasty, The Comet Is Coming, Stormzy, Spoon, Foals, Charli XCX/Yaeji/Clairo, Sporting Life/MIKE/Wiki, Nile, Korn, and more.

Witty, erudite UK post-punk greats The Monochrome Set, who celebrated their 40th anniversary last year, are on their first North American tour in some time and were just in the NYC area for shows at Jersey City’s White Eagle Hall (3/2) and Manhattan’s Bowery Ballroom on Monday (3/4)…
