Stormzy
Big For Your Boots,
#Merky
This unquestionable grime banger casts our returning hero as a down to earth “man of the house” who still “steals meat from the stew pot”.

Island
Anyone in the market for a good shiver, or even a cry, this week should look no further than the south Londoner’s latest slab of modern soul.

The Moonlandingz (feat. Rebecca Taylor)
The Strangle Of Anna,
Transgressive
The Sheffield outfit get slow, twisted and creepy over three-and-a-half sedative minutes. Their band practices must be fascinating.

Muna
I Know A Place,
RCA
Glossy pop with positive messages within. Check out the just-dropped video for this single, from the Cali trio’s debut About U, out now.

Spinning Coin
Raining On Hope Street,
Geographic Music
Sometimes, a pretty indie jangle is enough. The Glaswegians’ latest hits like a dose of a nice, legal, over the counter pick me up.

Great Ytene
Locus,
Faux Discx
The title-track of the London quartet’s debut album, out Friday, is a bundle of nerves and angled guitars. Let it corkscrew into your skull.

Paul Weller
The Ballad Of Jimmy McCabe,
Parlophone
Would Paul Weller risk his mod-ish jawbone in the ring? Who knows, but this - from his boxing flick score - is latent, acoustic and rather pleasant.
