"If you’re expecting an album of ABBA similar to their mid 70s imperial phase you will be disappointed. However if you are familiar with their later albums, particularly The Visitors there is plenty to love here. This is not just the return of ABBA, it’s the return of mature ABBA. That’s not to sa..."

"I love the song "Ms. California," I think it's one of my favorite songs of the year so far -- insanely catchy but still very felt. I couldn't get as into the rest of the record, though that's not to say the rest is bad, I just didn't find it as striking. The lead singer, Lili Trifilio, has a real..." [+] Reply
"I was genuinely pleasantly surprised by Zach Bryan on ‘American Heartbreak’ after a first listen, with its’ extensive range of songs, emotive lyrics and heartfelt performances. Reminded me of Ryan Adams mixed with country era John Mayer and mostly in a good way!" Reply

The project lacks focus, it seems like more a vessel to hold the singles and the couple of other r..." [+] Reply
"Man, Death's Dynamic Shroud is amazing! I have never ever heard anything like it before. I can't put it in a single genre either it's just a strong force standing there by it's own. The first half of this thing is really strong, especially songs like See Me, Someone in the Room AND FAITH IN PERSO..." [+] Reply
"Home Is Where are an emo band out of Florida.

I didn't have big expectations for their follow-up..." [+] Reply

"A decent debut on Epitaph Records from a band who is hardly into their teenage years. I will eagerly await how the band matures over the next decade but right now they are reminiscent of The Go-Go's. Recommended. Condensed to a 7" Single: A-Side: Growin' Up B-Side: Talkin' to Myself" Reply
