six of the best buys this weekend

SIX GOOD POP CDS

1. Blessid Union of Souls: Home (above) (EMI CDEMC 3708) Get used to the poor spelling, and to Eliot Sloan's warm, nasal delivery: this time next year, you'll be sick of both

2. White Zombie: Astro-Creep: 2000 (Geffen GED 24806) Dreadlocked industrial thrash-metallists with psychobilly attitude

3. Bjork: Post (One Little Indian TPLP 51)

Petulance, hedonism, skittishness - often in one song

4. Van Morrison: Days Like This (Polydor 52 7307 2) His best album for a while: "I was born with the blues," he sings, "and underlying depression."

5. Therapy?: Infernal Love (A&M 540 3792) Misery's still big this year

6. U Roy: Original DJ (Virgin CDFL 9020) Nasty repackaging of the greatest reggae toasting ever. Treasure Isle goes to heaven
