"If you want to feel how long a decade is play One Direction's 2011 hit 'What makes you beautiful' and then give this a spin. On his sophomore record Harry Styles has cemented his move away from the lowest common denominator pop music that his former band defined just a few years ago. Like his deb..."  [+]  Reply

"Supergrass gets more complex, more groovy, more funky... and more inconsistent. A little more cohesiveness would make this an amazing album. Instead, it's just really good."  Reply

"It's subdued, introspective, jazzy, perhaps even "sedate," almost a callback to the Beatnik Era, complete with the dingy 50's kitchen curtain and the stained coffee mug going cold on the side table as you chain-smoked Turkish cigarettes, the sort of album you probably wouldn't put on for your gir..."  [+]  Reply

"This album starts off on a stunning high with the opener “Always Together With You”. This encapsulates everything fantastic about this band. It’s comforting, spacious and soothing, while sounding triumphant and proud at the same time. This is followed by the rocking “Best Thing You ‘ve Never Had"..."  [+]  Reply

"If this is poppier than fans are comfortable with, let's admit that Steven Wilson takes any form of music and makes it much better, more complex and pleasing. Those four openers are Wilson perfection. This guy just loves making great music. Permanating is a damn great Supertramp tribute, and then..."  [+]  Reply

"AC/DC meets Lynyrd Skynyrd in this wonderfully ambitious set. It's an excellent concept album loosely based on Skynyrd and the southern states of America in general. It's a fun record with some fantastic songs including, Ronnie and Neil, let there be rock(no, not that one), and the enthralling, t..."  [+]  Reply
