Fourth studio album from Manchester’s Andy Stott. Too Many Voices finds Stott further exploring the dark and abrasive textures that has defined his career. As with his most recent work Alison Skidmore’s vocals are featured on most of the tracks, giving an airier texture to the album. Stott’s touch is lighter, as well. It’s almost as if he’s giving us a sign of what is to come. Includes the songs: “New Romantic,” “On My Mind,” and “Too Many Voices.” Nine tracks in all. Released by Modern Love on double vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve.

• double vinyl pressing
