Post-punk band Family Fodder have apparently been away for ten years and returned with a new album. For a lot of people, this will be the first time they’ve heard of them I’d imagine, but “The Onliest Thing” is quite a comeback – dense, groaning strings and an oppressive, almost chanted vocal. Great stuff, taken from the forthcoming album “Classical Music”.

On the subject of classical music, mercurial NYC composer Nico Muhly released a new track this week also. Hear it below, and see him playing at The Barbican next Tuesday as part of the Bedroom Community Whale Watching tour.
