Rough Trade New This Week: Yard Act, Genesis Owusu, Nia Archives and Budgie

This week sees Yard Act expand their razor-sharp social commentary into broader sonic territory on You’re Gonna Need A Little Music, while Genesis Owusudelivers another fearless collision of punk, funk, hip hop and soul with Redstar Wu and The Worldwide Scourge.

Nia Archives channels love, loss and late-night catharsis into her most ambitious record yet, Emotional Junglist, and Budgie reflects on a remarkable life behind the kit in The Absence, a candid memoir spanning the post-punk underground, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and the personal moments that shaped one of the era’s defining musicians.
