Originally released in September 1996, ‘Coming Up’ represented the creative and commercial peak for a rejuvenated Suede… some debut indeed for new band members guitarist Richard Oakes and keyboardist Neil Codling. A UK No. 1 album which spent just shy of an entire year in the album chart, the vivid, electrifying ‘Coming Up’ spawned five UK Top 10 singles – ‘Trash’, ‘Beautiful Ones’, ‘Saturday Night’, ‘Lazy’ and ‘Filmstar’. Elsewhere, grimy glam stompers met elegiac ballads and stadium anthems… and 30 years on, ‘Coming Up’ still packs all its original punch.
For the anniversary, Coming Up has been expanded into an all-encompassing 5CD edition, in Deluxe 7”X 7” packaging. On CD1 ‘Coming Up’ has been newly mastered from the original…

Following his acclaimed 2020 album The Red Planet, Rick Wakeman makes a triumphant and inevitable return to Mars with 
Continuing the series of archival live albums documenting German experimental rock legends Can at their mid-’70s creative peak, 
1974-1977 brings together five CDs absolutely bursting with music covering the most overlooked, but arguably most pioneering, period of Marc Bolan’s glittering career. It rounds up the final three T. Rex studio albums – Bolan’s Zip Gun, Futuristic Dragon and Dandy in the Underworld – and a string of 10 peerless late-period singles (and B-sides) that included ‘New York City’, ‘Dreamy Lady’, ‘The Soul of My Suit’, and of course ‘I Love to Boogie’. Throughout the journey Marc’s restless muse and creative spark encompasses soul and R&B (‘Ride My Wheels’, ‘Dreamy Lady’), excursions into proto-glam metal (‘Zip Gun Boogie’, ‘The London Boys’) and nervy, spiky-sharp tracks (‘Think Zinc’, ‘Celebrate Summer’) that nod towards the punk explosion happening…
Peter Hammill has never been an artist interested in taking the easy route. Whether through Van der Graaf Generator or his extensive solo catalogue, his music consistently occupies a space where beauty, tension, introspection and unease exist side by side. 
Tom Morello returns with his first solo rock album, 
The Frank Zappa estate have released a 60th anniversary super deluxe edition of his debut album with The Mothers Of Invention, 
Roger Clark Miller was guitarist/vocalist/co-leader in the highly influential post-punk band Mission of Burma. Their album Vs. was listed at number 19 in Pop Matters’ “50 Best Post-Punk Albums ever”, and number 24 in Rolling Stone’s “100 Greatest Punk Albums of All Time.” They even have a chapter dedicated to them in “Our Band Could be Your Life.”
Haken underwent a sea change in January 2026 when guitarist Charlie Griffiths and bassist Conner Green left the band and formed metal band Tiktaalika. It forced them to regroup and reconsider where they’d been as both a band and as individuals. 
Carrying on the legacy after the tragic passing of lifelong friend and co-founder Daniel Hutchens, influential roots-rock outfit Bloodkin released the downtrodden and poetic Flowers & Ash. The 10-song project is a cathartic, meditative listen on the idea that you never need a bigger picture to worry about if the little things are out of order, opting for slower melodies that punctuate the complexity of the songwriting.
Ringo Starr, Phil Collins, and Don Henley are just a few examples of drummers who have had successful solo careers. You could add Roger Taylor of Queen to that list. He may not have sold as many albums, but he has had a very healthy solo career. He has just released his seventh solo album,

In 1995, amidst the alternative rock-osphere of sincere boys with angst to spare, entered Ben Folds Five. The misnomered trio of Ben Folds on piano and vocals, Robert Sledge on bass, and Darren Jessee on drums, Ben Folds Five interjected a bit of much-needed whimsy into a scene that was rapidly becoming stale. The band’s debut album was an explosion of pop-filled tunefulness, endearing silliness, and musical jubilance that set the band apart from its peers and catapulted them into the limelight.
Punch Card delivers android funk of the highest order. The Stoke-on-Trent trio raises the ghosts of Hearpen Singles Pere Ubu and robot-funky Devo. The main flavor though is the earliest version of the Talking Heads (think “Psycho Killer”).
