New LPs these days, eh? Often released on limited edition coloured vinyl, usually with gratis downloads and sometimes even enhanced with enticing free bits and bobs - but how many arrive with a tea towel designed by a member of the band? Not many I'll be bound. My copy of 'Moonshine Freeze' did though. It's the 4th album by the consistently terrific This is the Kit, a band I've championed long and loud plenty of times in the past, so I won't bang on too much, other than to note that this time around they appear on the Rough Trade record label and are produced by long time PJ Harvey cohort John Parish. Buy it, is my frankly straight forward advice.
Here are Kate Stables and Rozi Plain risking pneumonia for our entertainment.

Just made the purchase
You won't be sorry George, though I fear you may have missed out on the free tea towel.
Hmm, now where have I heard Rozi Plain before? Just kidding. Really good stuff, as always. Rough Trade will be busy filling orders of this one.
Unfortunately no opportunities to download a tea towel!
Can't make up my mind about this lot. I keep teetering on the verge of a purchase, then wondering if it'll be one of those I admire rather than enjoy. Must try harder. (Me, not them.)
Very favorable review at Pitchfork today.
