"This is a nice, light, smooth jazz album with just a piano and guitar. Interestingly, the album artwork looks like it belongs to an early 2010s metal album, cool photography and graphic design choices (e.g. lack of text) which are somewhat uncharacteristic of the early 1960s. This might be my fav..."  [+]  Reply

"Every now and then, an album’s name is absolutely perfect to describe the album itself, and in the case of Autre Ne Veut’s “Anxiety", you have an album that feels anxious, that feels crazy. It’s difficult to describe this album with much clarity. It has a pop sensibility to it, but it keeps you o..."  [+]  Reply

"Gordon Lightfoot writes poetry. Then he wraps it up in beautiful folk melodies that soothe your soul or stir your emotion. Pure genius, and should be noticed more."  Reply

"Max Richter's score for Wayne McGregor's dance piece 'Woolf Works' based on three Virginia Woolf novels (Mrs Dalloway, Orlando, and The Waves). Being one of classical music's most forward-thinking composer's the music is surprisingly, more concerned with creating a sense of pathos and empathy tha..."  [+]  Reply

"Slow-core at its best. This is actually quite heavy, the distortion is loud and the lyrics tender. The lead singer sings on Wird: "I wanna walk/But I have to crawl", and I guess that sums up Codeine's music as well. They could play fast and aggressive, but instead they tone it down and plays in a..."  [+]  Reply

"This is fucking good. They personally set a new level for Belgian and Dutch indie/alternative bands and apparantly are able to reach this level themselves and even put it a little higher with Fever. Best tracks: Never gonna let you down, Wrong Vibration."  Reply

"Don't let the condensed tracklisting fool you, this album picks up where I Am Not Afraid of You left off and is just as sprawling. With songs veering in almost every direction the band has ever explored, Popular Songs is coming from a band oozing with confidence in who they are as a band. Highlig..."  [+]  Reply
