Bristol Music Weekly

New Releases (06 Dec – 12 Dec 2025) ❄️

This week’s Bristol releases lean Bandcamp-first — archive gems, underground EPs and eclectic full-length statements. Here are the highlights, plus a couple of Bristol gigs to keep your diary busy.

Top Pick of the Week ⭐

Kolter – East West Connection Vol 1

Kolter’s new album is a proper “press play and let it run” listen — wide-ranging ideas stitched together with confident pacing. It stands out this week for scope and cohesion: less a handful of singles and more a full statement. If you only check one Bristol-linked Bandcamp drop this week, start here.

Bandcamp Picks 🎶

X-Ray Ted – Patreon Exclusives 2025

A compilation pulling together exclusive material from X-Ray Ted’s Patreon output — a neat snapshot of experiments, side-cuts and ideas that sit outside the usual release cycle.

Crashland – The Famous Five Session

Bristol Archive Records surface a previously unreleased session from Crashland — raw, direct and full of Bristol alternative history. One for the collectors and the curious.

DIMESHIFT – Ghost Town EP

Dark, bass-weighted and built for late-night listening — a compact EP that leans into UK underground DNA without polishing away the grit.

Gig Highlights 🌍

This Week: Joe + Damage @ Bristol Beacon

Friday 12 December at Bristol Beacon — a solid end-of-week option in one of the city’s flagship rooms.
