For The Record: June

June has seen two of the years most hotly tipped new artists release their debut albums alongside a return to form for Regina Spektor, a giddy romp from The Answering Machine, middling efforts from Gossip and Kasabian and a wildy experimental and intrguing record from White Denim. Winner by a country mile however is Future Of The Left, a record so raw and viscious it sounds like a pack of dogs chasing Derek Vinyard into a wood chopper.
