Chris Price - Stop Talking

The second solo album of Chris Price, Stop Talking, is coming on May 19, 2017.

Price is a man of many talents - producer for Emitt Rhodes and Linda Perhacs, writing with artists like Roger Joseph Manning Jr. (Jellyfish) and Taylor Locke (Rooney) or recording a complete album with an iPhone 4 (his first record Homesick).


Chris Price was joined in the studio by a variety of top musicians, including Kyle Fredrickson, Ben Lecourt, Fernando Perdomo, Joe Seiders and many others. According to Price, “I spent the five years since my first album Homesick working on albums for two heroes of mine, Emitt Rhodes and Linda Perhacs. But I never stopped writing and recording material of my own, and both of those incredibly inspiring and fulfilling projects ended up deeply informing my work, pushing me to think harder about my lyrics, become more adventurous in my production and never take the safe route musically. Nearly 50 songs were recorded for this project, and I went through an arduous and at times painful process whittling it all down to the form it is now in. I’m very proud of this work, which has been brewing for quite some time. But I should really stop talking and let the music speak for itself.”

Stop Talking is available on CD and (very limited) Vinyl.


Here are the first three songs from Stop Talking - and it looks like a good canditate for the record of the year for me:

Jason Falkner - Biography & Discography

There is this kind of musician who is writing, releasing records and performing his own music for more than two decades - but misses the aim that is chart success? The one who creates stunning music and don't get any recognition by public, but by his loyal fans? One of them is Jason Falkner . To sum it up: he may be one of the most underrated musicians of the last two decades. What a pity! Falkner started his musical career with a band called The Three O'Clock but soon he joined a new band of his former bandmate (Roger Joseph Manning Jr.) - Jellyfish . After the success of the first record ( Bellybutton ) he left the band and said he'll be never again a band member again (where he was clearly wrong). His solo career started in 1996 with Presents Author Unknown , followed with the fabulous Can You Still Feel? . I recommend to listen to Can You Still Feel? from start to finish - there's no filler song, no low point. 2001 was a good year for loyal fan...

Pulp - More (new album!)

Pulp's 'More': The Return Following a 24-year break, Britpop icons Pulp return with their eighth studio album, More , set for release on June 6, 2025, via Rough Trade Records. It marks their first full-length studio project since We Love Life in 2001. The album was recorded over the course of three weeks in late 2024 at Orbb Studio in Walthamstow, London, with James Ford handling production.   The Creative Process Pulp’s 2023 reunion tour rekindled their creative energy, with the spark first catching fire during soundchecks where they began working on a new track, “Hymn of the North.” This moment marked the beginning of a highly productive songwriting phase that continued throughout 2024. Interestingly, despite Jarvis Cocker’s use of AI in the video for the lead single “Spike Island,” the album itself was created entirely without the aid of artificial intelligence.
