"It is an album of covers, but it seems he brings more emphasis to the emotion of the lyrics than some of the originals. Really just beautiful. It seems Gabriel is singing with his last whim on every song; a broken man singing with heart and soul. The atmosphere of the album reminds me of Johnny C..." [+] Reply
"A little more refined than their debut but in a similar vein. No bad tracks but also no top quality ones either. Still a cracking album." Reply
"Little Love Affairs is Nanci Griffith's sixth album and her second on major label MCA. The rollicking folk accompaniment from the Philo records was scrapped on the MCA debut "Lone Star State of Mind" in favor for a more Nashville-friendly sound. Despite their best mainstreaming intentions, that r..." [+] Reply

"The ultimate travesty is that this band is remembered for one song (Sex and Candy). When their entire debut is made up of whimsical stories and memorable songs from the wonderful mind of John Wozniak, who is a criminally underrated songwriter. This album deserves multiple listens and respect." Reply
"Consolidating the work done on the first album, The Vaccines Come Of Age is another collection of dumb, fun, rock 'n' roll (take note Animal Collective & Grizzly Bear) SONGS. Sure, the boys are hardly the most innovative kids on the block but the new album is a welcome shot in the arm just as roc..." [+] Reply

"On the surface Gang of Youths third album feels like a weird and awkward peek into a private world you shouldn’t be privy to However, rewarding repeated spins and time to absorb and peel back the onion skin layers ‘angel in realtime’ is in actuality an engrossing experience and towering work that..."

"Brilliant and unique album by Armand Hammer. The instrumentals are dark, raw, and slow. The lyrics are thought provoking and have a nice sense of humor. It won't be for everybody, but if you're looking for something unique amond the other Hip Hop albums of 2018, give Paraffin by Armand Hammer a try." [+] Reply

"Her musical sensibility is impeccable and she turns out great melodies. This album just sounds amazing. Lyrically, there's a playfulness to her songs that hearkens to 60/70s female country artists. She does fall back on clever phrases a bit too often, but her lyrics have matured overall. Give her..." [+] Reply
