"Not many bands or artists have successfully reinvented their sound over and over like Arctic Monkeys. It’s not as much of a departure in style as TBHC was to AM, but there is a clear evolution from their 2018 sci fi themed concept album. The Car is a beautiful and rewarding listen, and you have t..."  [+]  Reply

"75 to 80/100 (Beautiful, assured and uplifting debut from this British singer and songwriter. Full of subtle and honest and understanding and warm soulful pop songs. She's now one of the most exciting young artists that I look forward to hearing all her releases going forward for years to come.) ..."  [+]  Reply

"This is where Nightwish began taking it into the stratosphere. Their first 4 albums were good, but this album is truly excellent. Tarja's outstanding vocals were far more balanced between rock and opera on this album - a balance that the band would continue striking after firing her. Wish I Had a..."  [+]  Reply

"The Isley Brothers have had hits in every decade since the 1950's, and have scored 20 top 10 albums. 3+3, which finds the band as a sextet, opens with "That Lady"...worth having the album for alone. It's funky, and Ernie Isley tears it up on guitar. The album is also notable for its choice in cov..."  [+]  Reply

"OK so he cheated by adding two old songs and 'updating' them to the sound of 1987, but even without those two songs, it is still a great album. And the video of Still Of The Night. I admit that 1987 was not a 'timeless' year and this album like Pyromania and Appetite For Destruction just don't se..."  [+]  Reply

"It's strange listening to and sharing my thoughts about this project as Taylor Skye (one half of the duo) is a close friend, so I've been witness to Jockstrap's rise over the past five years and know some of what has gone into their debut. With that being said, and trying to remain as objective a..."  [+]  Reply

"I will shamelessly admit I had no idea who Mdou Moctar is prior to listening to this album, so you can easily imagine it was quite the experience, something like a punch in the face. The first thing I noticed is that - in my opinion at least - the production’s handling is exemplary. Despite addin..."  [+]  Reply
