Strange Desire, the debut release from Bleachers (aka New York City based Jack Antonoff) is, I think I will go as far to say, my current record of the year. Stuffed with incredibly catchy hooks, echoing drums and powerful, pulsing synths, it's a throwback to the 80s - epic, anthemic and totally bombastic. I'm in love with it. Also, Grimes and Yoko Ono make vocal appearances, which surely can never be a bad thing. I can't seem to work out how I can buy the album in the UK, but you can listen to it in full below. Opener Wild Heart is a soaring beauty.
