Album Review: Kurt Cobain – Montage Of Heck: The Home Recordings (Deluxe Edition)
Montage Of Heck: The Home Recordings is basically playing Weekend At Bernies with Kurt Cobain's corpse. No class, no respect. No thanks.
Album Reviews
Album Review: Freddie Gibbs – Shadow Of A Doubt
Let there be no doubt (pun intended), that Freddie Gibbs' Shadow Of A Doubt is a tour de force of modern-day gangsta rap. And oh boy is it brilliant.
No More Casual Vanning: A Look At The Essential Van Morrison
What is about Van Morrison that inspires such loyalty and passion? While I’m sure there are a casual Van fans, some people are in love with his music.
Album Review: Disclosure – Caracal
If the Lawrence Brothers are proud of Caracal, then I’m happy for them. Disclosure certainly know how to make a better electro-pop tune than I do.
Grimes: Welcome to Realiti
From start to finish, Art Angels is not only Grimes strongest album yet but one of the best I’ve heard this year, or any year. Claire Boucher is genius.
Album Review: EL VY – Return to The Moon
Matt Berninger and Brent Knopf as EL VY are a mismatched musical duo and Return to The Moon is an album that doesn’t lack ambition but blatantly lacks focus
Album Review: GOLD – No Image
If No Image marks a new path that GOLD is choosing to travel, then I want to go on that journey with them. No Image shows blazes new trails in rock music.
Album Review: Great Falls – The Fever Shed
Great Falls' live show is a vicious assault of energy, and their latest album, The Fever Shed, does an excellent job of capturing this ferocity.
Album Review: Battles – La Di Da Di
The consistent lack of the depth Battles have expunged throughout La Di Da Di sneaks into the corners the territory of mediocrity.
Album Review: The Dears – Times Infinity Volume One
On Time Infinity Volume One, The Dears suggest their music is concerned with emotion, but it’s weird to see a group of 40-somethings getting so emotional.
