Or an Instagram post in which blandly attractive people have non-specific good times in a blandly attractive bar? The Australian singer-songwriter Vance Joy supplies the answer on an album of songs about relationships written, seemingly, from the perspective of someone who has learned about them from watching the romcoms Matthew McConaughey was starring in during his dark ages.

• Turnstile: Time & Space review – teeth-rattling hardcore … with a dash of Status Quo

  23-02-2018 10:30
  (Roadrunner)Eight years after singer Brendan Yates and guitarist Brady Ebert started rehearsing in a neighbour’s garage, the Baltimore quintet’s riotous live shows have made them one of the most discussed bands in hardcore. Their second album follows a major label bidding war, after which they opted to go with metal label Roadrunner.

• Anna von Hausswolff: Dead Magic review – doomy epic from a supernatural talent

  23-02-2018 10:00
  (City Slang)The organ is a strange and compelling instrument, its pedal board capable of moving the secular and religious alike. We hear it played in celebration, when new life begins and vows are made, and also at the end, in requiem for the dead. Little wonder, then, that gothic composers such as Sweden’s Anna von Hausswolff find themselves drawn to its power.The Gothenburg-born musician has made the organ her primary tool in recent years, yoking its eerie timbre to a thrilling weave of

• Nils Frahm review – short on harmony but texture and tone in spades

  23-02-2018 00:16
  Barbican, London
  Frahm jokes about his musical limitations, but his piano solos are quiet riots that transport you to a higher planeHe might be the most popular solo pianist on earth at the moment but the Berlin-based “neo-classical” star Nils Frahm will be the first to admit that he’s not a classical pianist of any description. In this two-hour show there is little harmony or chordal development, scarcely any improvisation, and – with the exception of the jagged, nerve-w
