Metronomy are back in a welcome return to form. They've given us a banger of a track in the unlikely combination of Salted Caramel Ice Cream. It's a teaser track off of the forthcoming album which is due out in September 2019. If the teaser is anything to go by, the LP is likely to be be up there with the 2011 LP The English Riviera in its greatness. Metronomy have appeared before on FTBOTRB - go take a listen. As usual the menu extends further than just ice cream this week, with a Listener Recommendation inspired bookend from Lissie Trullie. Get your headphones on and dive straight in. To compliment Salted Caramel Ice Cream the guitar excellence of Randy Lorenzo gives some sumptuous summery vibes as he guides us around the lush tropical paradise of Hawaii. Hello to all our listeners in Hawaii. Tobin brings Soft Walls back into the studio for a play of what is possibly their standout track from the LP No Time. The whole album constitutes a Record Box Recommendation in fact - it's essential listening. Finally, we're treating you to a Double Record Box Classic this week. We discuss what must arguably one of the greatest LP cover artworks of all time. Tobin admits that he has never been voted one of the world's most beautiful people by People magazine and ends up slating the track. We play 2 great tracks from Thin Lizzy and Fine Young Cannibals. Of course Tobin is wrong about the quite wonderful Roland Gift but we'll let you make up your own minds.
