Playlist 424 - Nov 22 2016

A spate of great gigs coming up in Cork and we played several of these bands on the show this week.

Fixity, a new album conceived in Cork, recorded in Malmo and sounding like a pure beast, launches in Triskel Dec 3.

The Altered Hours, "hometown" show at the Kino Dec 10, it's been too long. Also Rozi Plain, same venue the following night, all part of the Sudden Club Weekender. Great.

A terrible clash but also on Dec 10 in Cobh at the Sirius Arts Centre, the return of the wonderful Slow Moving Clouds, strings and drones turned into gorgeous ambient hum.

Also great music from Cool Ghouls, channelling The Byrds from 1965/6; Rothko with vocals by Johny Brown, sterling bass and voice expositions from the north of England; The Sea Nymphs, a timeless treasure from 1992, just released.

And Lambchop, making autotuned vocals credible for the first time.
