It’s Friday, therefore time for the usual amodelofcontrol.com round-up of new music coming your way this week and soon, as well as a look at the events and gigs in the future, and finally nods to any other notable news that affects artists and music that I cover here.

/transmission – the amodelofcontrol.com podcast – has returned this week, continuing the run through of the a-z of industrial, with all episodes thus far are here. The latest episode is /transmission/014, getting through the letter J and moving onto K.

You can also get it via RSS, on iTunes, on Stitcher, and is also now available on the Google Podcasts App (search “amodelofcontrol”) and Spotify too.

If you want to submit anything to be included here? E-mail me (You know what to do with that to make it work, right?), comment/message on Facebook at the amodelofcontrol.com page, and over on Twitter (@amodelofcontrol).

/This Week/New Releases

A number of top quality releases this week. First up is the excellent new album from Drab Majesty, whose Modern Mirror is, on first listen, one of the best records I’ve heard this year.

Also out today: the new album from God Module (The Unsound), She Past Away’s new album Disko Anksiyete, and
the new album from Batushka (or, at least, one of the two bands with that name now after their messy split recently) Hospodi.

One final album out this week is what has become a tribute to the late Scott Hutchison of Frightened Rabbit: Tiny Changes: A Celebration of Frightened Rabbit’s ‘The Midnight Organ Fight’. If you know the originals, it is a tough listen, but a worthwhile one.

/This Week/Upcoming Releases

The recently-returned Rome Burns launched a Kickstarter today for their upcoming new album, while the ever-intriguing Jenny Hval returns with The Practice of Love in September.

/Other Music News

An extraordinary story from Iran of a metal band sentenced for doing what they do (they appear to have since escaped Iran, perhaps understandably).
