"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

"I was kind of disappointed with this one. Harry has always wowed me by putting out some of the best radio pop one could ask for but I think he missed the mark on the one. I love Love of My Life though. 6/10" Reply

"Bjork of course is always interesting and a new album is always much anticipated. But I have the same problem with "Fossora" that I had with "Utopia", the lack of memorable melodies. On almost every song Bjork just seems to sing in the same key and uses the same vocal phrasing which leave the lis..." [+] Reply

"Along with Mumford and Sons, The 1975 are one of the most polarising artists out there. Your either in the love em camp or loath them with a passion camp & just for the record I'm most certainly in the love em camp & I really don’t give a flying rats as to what other people think After their Gen ..."

"This a very consistent album as there is no real weak track and they are all pretty decent. However, it is lacking real attention grabbing songs that keep you interested and I do find a lot of the songs out stay their welcome a little. There is a lot of great musicianship on here, that really mak..." [+] Reply

"I had never heard of this person until I reviewed their record (similarly to Earl Sweatshirt), and I was not too pleased with this mixtape. I hate when she has a good or great thing going that just fades away into the realm of conversations that I genuinely don't need to hear, and odd electronic ..." [+] Reply

"The first thing to understand about this album is it really isn’t a “Perfume Genius album” as we we’ve come to know and love in the frame of fully accessible shimmering pop treats and more of a Mike Hadreas solo album. Secondly ‘Ugly Season’ is the soundtrack to a dance / performance piece Hadrea..." [+] Reply

"'PAINLESS' is spare and brooding, with crunching electronic drums and fizzing alkali guitar and synths. I enjoyed myself overall, as I thought Yanya's writing had a harsh beauty to it, Wilma Archer's exec production was very consistent and I have a soft spot for the flourishes Bullion added to th..."
