"This is a perfect example of how Blakey can spot a good composition, make it swing, and get his soloists to attack it with both cohesiveness and verve. While most Blakey albums are memorable for Blakey himself, and he's in fine form here, it's really the brass in the front like that steals the sh..."  [+]  Reply

"Good memories of some of these songs (Witchcraft, Watercolour, Fountain, Self vs Self) from my teens. Listened to the whole album and quite a lot of it is dross to be fair. Not too much to shout about other than the 4 I already mentioned - but I'll shout out Encoder and Crush. Really like Witchcr..."  [+]  Reply

"This is a top-tier Blink-182 album. It feels like the natural progression of the band after their self-titled, and sounds like a more mature take on the Blink-182 formula. The troubled sessions for this album contributes to a more immediate and frustrated sound, making it stand out even more in t..."  [+]  Reply

"This is the best Otis Redding album I've heard personally. Though I like "Otis Blue", this one is just better in my opinion track-for-track. The unbelievably spectacular opening track almost overshadows the rest of the album with its sheer power and attention it commands, but especially on repeat..."  [+]  Reply

"K.M’s most accomplished and complete record yet demonstrating a mastery of his musical craft he’s been slowly building towards for the past five years. Clearly this is his “Breakup Album” seemingly parting ways with long time partner Katie Crutchfield aka Waxahatchee"  Reply

"The first time I listened to Strange Trails back in 2015, I could have sworn I'd heard every song on it before, and even felt like I could have sung along. That's how immediately agreeable this indie folk album is. Sometimes an album that's so familiar has a tendency to lose its appeal quickly, s..."  [+]  Reply

"This is the modern world, was the lightning quick follow up to debut album, in the city. In truth, they maybe should have waited a little longer to record this LP as it falls short of the quality on that first record. The band just don't sound as inspired with only, life from a window, one of the..."  [+]  Reply

"Beautifully performed modern Sufi wrapped in a jazz blanket. Certainly night is its domain; it is by turns dark and soothing. Aftab’s voice is smooth and mellifluous and the playing complements it wonderfully. Superb."  Reply
