The latest roundup of new releases in this long, hot summer – and I’ve been reminded this morning that it is six weeks to Infest…
This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website and others, and also a catchup of what I’ve posted recently. Thanks to everyone who sends me new music and events, keeps me up to speed, and indeed simply reads these posts.
/amodelofcontrol.com now has a Patreon page, at this stage purely as a potential way of helping to cover the running costs of the site. There is absolutely no compulsion to do so: if you feel you can chuck a small amount to the site each month, that would be appreciated.

/Releases out today or recently
/Album of the Week
26-Jun 2026 / Million Moons / You Be Good, I Love You / Bandcamp

19-Jun 2026 / Placebo / Placebo Re:Created / Official Artist Store
The rework of the much-loved Placebo debut makes a few tweaks, but never loses sight of the fact that the songs were perfectly great in the first place.
26-Jun 2026 / Borghesia / Resistance / Bandcamp
Long difficult to get, Borghesia’s excellent album Resistance gets a remaster and reissue at last.

The Belgian tribal-industrial titans release a 30th anniversary retrospective that makes some interesting choices with the tracklisting (particularly certain versions chosen).

The ninth album by the Chicago post-metallers, and lead single Empath crushes.
30-Oct 2026 / Editors / Surface, Echo & Sound / Official Artist Store

/Upcoming/Livestreams/Gigs/Club Nights/Events
/amodelofcontrol.com continues to maintain an events calendar, but it has now moved to /amodelofcontrol.com/events – and is now a dynamic, searchable database, and you can add individual events to your own calendars. The listing has had a new revamp and redesign as of September 2025.
If you have updates, relevant events for me, or want to tell me about something else, use the contact details above. It goes without saying that any gig or club still in the listing is subject to change at short notice, or may not happen at all.
