Art rock releases, week 40

This week in art rock, new releases and archival discoveries highlight a rich tapestry of sonic experimentation and introspective depth. From Peter Gabriel's contemplative single 'Face the Wall' to Tony Iommi's atmospheric 'Stormwatcher' and Protomartyr's 'Hotel Usona', the genre continues to evolve through both legacy acts and emerging voices. Additional highlights include Steven Wilson's unsettling 'On Chapel Slope', Roxy Music's rare 'Pyjamarama' demo, and a reissue of David Bowie's early Shel Talmy recordings. The week also features expanded editions from Talking Heads and Yes, as well as a new album from Archive with its sprawling title track.
