"Saw this at the top of a music journalist's 2021. Not my usual cup of tea, but it's good for scratching an old school rock, hard rock, itch with a little 90s alternative/grunge seasoning."  Reply

""Black and White", the third Stanglers album, has the distinctive characteristics from the first two albums; the special organ-playing from Dave Greenfield, the heavy and often melodic bass lines from Jean-Jacques Burnel and, of course, Hugh Cornwell’s easily recognizable vocals. What "Black and ..."  [+]  Reply

"Decidedly, Phoebe Bridgers is on fire right now. After a first solo album in 2017 named "Stranger In The Alps", the Californian re-offended with supertrio boygenius the following year with a first EP, now she presents her new side-project with Conor Oberst named "Better Oblivion Community Center ..."  [+]  Reply

"Contains two strong singles in What Time Is Love? and 3 A.M. Eternal, as well as one annoying single in Justified and Ancient. The remaining six songs are pointless filler."  Reply

"This is a really good album, almost sounds like a Beatles' tribute/pastiche at times especially on the wonderful Laura, a kind of John Lennon psychedelic ballad, and the drony, Scandinavian skies. The middle eight of surprises sounds just like George Harrison too. The first half of the album is p..."  [+]  Reply

"The best voice of all time singing like never, Claus Ogerman´s delicate and inspired arrangements and a first line Tom Jobim and American Standards repertoire, all in a sofisticated Bossa Nova style. Everything here is perfect."  Reply

"Really good album. I never fell in love with Reunions (the last one). I have a feeling Weathervanes will be on repeat for me. After one listen I feel like I like it as least as much as Nashville Sound. Great songwriting. "From the gut" lyrics. Music is Isebellian - nothing that radically new soun..."  [+]  Reply
