Kim Wilde – Trail of Destruction

It’s no secret we love Kim Wilde, and we’re excited that she’s got a new album on the way and an Australian tour. Closer will be the singer’s 15th album and he first since 2018’s excellent Here Come the Aliens. Wilde will play the Astor Theatre on 22nd October.

Wilde appeared on British TV this week and said the new album would include duets with Ultravox singer Midge Ure and her niece Scarlett Wilde and would be a companion record to her 1988 album Close.

Primal Scream – Love Insurrection

This November Primal Scream will deliver their 12th album Come Ahead and this tune shows it maybe their funkiest work to date tapping into 70’s soul sounds. It’s eight years since the Scottish bands last record.
