UKNY for August 26

A preview of some late summer and autumn releases abound (some all in caps) on tonight's UKNY at 11 with Bristol's impassioned IDLES, the other trio that keeps Portishead's Geoff Barrow busy, BEAK>, and the return of Bill Ryder-Jones and the excellent Brighton band that he recently produced, Our Girl.

Slow Club's Rebecca Taylor goes solo with Self-Esteem, and more from Auckland's the Beths, who've released one of the finest debut albums of 2018, Future Me Hates Me. And a little reggae too, looking back at FUV's Reggae Essentials.
