8 October 2026: THE SISTERS OF MERCY – Floodland

We’re back at Glossop Labour Club on Thursday 8th October, when previous guest host Rachel Blackman returns to Glossop Record Club to share one of her favourite albums – the goth classic Floodland by The Sisters of Mercy, on vinyl and in full.

Released in 1987, Floodland was recorded in New York, Bath and… Stockport (!!), with Bat Out of Hell writer Jim Steinman producing several tracks, including the epic This Corrosion. Blending gothic rock with drum machines, huge choral arrangements, dark atmospherics and the occasional piano ballad, it became the band’s biggest album and remains one of the defining records of the genre.

And with Halloween just around the corner, we’ll also be digging into a suitably dark selection of goth favourites throughout the evening.

Doors 8pm, music starts at 8.30. See you there!

10 September 2026: LEFTFIELD – Leftism

We’re back at Glossop Labour Club on Thursday 10 September, when we’ll be taking a trip back to 1995 for Leftfield’s groundbreaking debut album, Leftism.

Blending dance beats with influences ranging from dub to world music, and featuring guest vocals from John Lydon and Toni Halliday, it’s an album that has endured over the years, sitting comfortably alongside classics by contemporaries including Underworld, The Prodigy and Orbital.

Record Club regular Jarrod Hopkinson will be hosting the session, exploring the origins of Leftfield and the story behind the album before we play Leftism on vinyl and in full.

Doors 8pm, music starts at 8.30pm. See you there!

13 August 2026: OS MUTANTES & THE TROPICALIA SCENE

Glossop Record Club is back for our first-ever summer session on Thursday 13 August, continuing last month’s Brazilian vibe and digging deeper into some of the artists featured at that session.

We’ll be exploring the psychedelic sounds of Tropicália, Brazil’s short-lived but hugely influential countercultural movement of the late 1960s. Led by artists including Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil, it brought traditional Brazilian music together with psychedelic rock, pop and the classical avant-garde to create a bold and entirely distinctive sound.

At the heart of the movement were Os Mutantes, and we’ll be playing the David Byrne-compiled Everything Is Possible: The Best of Os Mutantes on vinyl and in full, alongside key tracks by Veloso, Gil and Gal Costa.

Brazilian journalist Laura Wilke will also be joining us again to provide more background and context to the music and the turbulent times in which it emerged.

Doors open at 8pm, with music from 8.30pm. See you there!

9 July 2026: A TASTE OF BRAZIL

We’ll be bringing a summer vibe to Glossop Labour Club on Thursday 9 July, as we take a trip through the music of Brazil’s golden age.

From Tropicalia and Samba, to Bossa Nova and MPB (Música Popular Brasileira), we’ll be playing tracks by Os Mutantes, Jorge Ben Jor, Milton Nascimento, Elis Regina, Caetano Veloso, Chico Buarque and many others. Along the way you’ll hear familiar sounds and songs, and discover a whole lot more… All on vinyl, of course!

To help guide us through the music, we’ll be joined by Brazilian journalist Laura Wilke, who worked in the cultural sector in Brazil for more than 15 years before moving to the UK. She’ll share some of the stories behind the songs and explain how this remarkable burst of creativity unfolded during a period of political upheaval and strict censorship in the 1960s and 70s.

It’ll be an evening of extraordinary music, powerful stories and joyous rhythms, guaranteed to bring some musical sunshine to town.

Doors 8pm, music starts at 8.30pm. See you there!

11 June 2026: BECK – Odelay

We’re back at Glossop Labour Club on Thursday 11 June when we’ll be playing Beck’s 1996 album Odelay, on vinyl and in full.

Picking up where 1993’s Mellow Gold left off, Beck’s second major label offering is a melting pot of breakbeats, folk, country, garage rock, exotica and a whole lot more, topped off with his customary absurd lyrics, making for an eclectic but cohesive listening experience.

We’ll explore Beck’s pre-Odelay career, picking out tracks from his earlier albums and singles before spinning the album from start to finish.

Doors 8pm, music starts at 8.30. See you there!

14 May 2026: NME’s C86 – 40th Anniversary

Glossop Record Club is back at Glossop Labour Club on Thursday 14th May, when we’ll be celebrating the 40th anniversary of the NME‘s era-defining compilation, C86.

Originally released as a cassette (hence the ‘C’) in May 1986 and later that year on vinyl, it rounded up twenty two tracks from new UK and Irish bands on independent record labels including Primal Scream, The Soup Dragons, Stump, Bogshed, The Pastels, Half Man Half Biscuit, Fuzzbox, The Wedding Present and Glossop’s very own Bodines. In the process, it defined an era, a style (jangly, melodic guitar music) and also represented the beginning of indie music as we came to know it.

The session will be hosted by Gavin Hogg, co-author of We Peaked At Paper – An Oral History of British Zines, who’ll be exploring the C86 scene before playing the album in full.

Doors open at 8pm, music starts 8.30. Join us!
