The first new release I've picked up in 2025, Ex-Vöid's sophomore LP,
In Love Again, gets the year off to a fine start.
As if the band's metal-sounding name wasn't already enough to put listeners off the scent, the album cover wonderfully suggests a thrashy black metal record that couldn't be further from what lies within.
Sure, the album kicks off with a squeal of feedback, and there's plenty of post-punk distortion... but at heart it's another burst of 90s-reminiscent giddy jangle pop, highlight...
