I have been captivated by two new rock album releases – and as is so often the case, both come from British musicians – one by Cornershop and theater by EOB (Ed O’Brien of Radiohead).

England is a Garden is a spectacular and thought-provoking protest album against Brexit and other forms of nationalism by the Indian-Anglo band, Cornershop. My favorite tracks on this twelve (12) tune album are:
- “Saint Marie Under Canon“
- “Cash Money“
- “No Save Rock in Roll” – sounds eerily much like an early 1970s Stones’ tune
- “Everywhere That Wog Army Roams“
- “England is a Garden“

Meanwhile, EOB’s first solo album, Earth, is a exciting release that reaches out and touches the soul in so many ways. My favorite tracks on this album are:
- “Shangri-La” – his voice sounds so much like Thom Yorke’s
- “Brasil” – a simply gorgeous dreamy anthem of hope
- “Banksters” – sounds like an angry track taken directly from Hail to the Thief
