Read More2022: With two Radiohead members, Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood, I think our main thought is how much does it sound like a Radiohead record. I’ll list where it departs from their sound.:
Read More2022: I have Morby’s 2017 effort City Music towards the beginning of this Newer Albums section. Kevin is one prolific album craftsman. There has been 5 releases since ‘17.
Read More2022: Writing about a Beyonce album is like having review site on lesser know sodas then doing a review on Coca Cola. I mean that in that she is one of our times truly ubiquitous artists. Still I’m not placing a record here if I don’t like it.
Read More2022: I love this cover art. It tells a story. A great combination of hip-hop and neo-soul. To me the backing goodies are important as the rhymes and flow. Few Good Things delivers here with smooth soundscapes and beats
Read More2022: This is one of those albums where the album art and music within perfectly align. I saw this cover and was all, fuck yeah, I’m in on this one. 70s styled straight on hard rock
Read More2022: Layered. Unpredictable. Uplifting. Euro. Destroyer is the musical project of Canadian singer-songwriter Dan Bejar, who is also known for his involvement in the indie rock supergroup The New Pornographers.
Read More2021: I haven’t heard as much great innovative hip-hop from female artists in recent years. The Cardi-Doja-Stallion-Minaj releases are kinda meh. This Brit-Hop artist is certainly as exception.

Read More2021: I thought to me, dang I should put a K-Pop number on this shits. So I went on a streamy search through the immense world of Korean pop. I was looking for a straight-up T-Swift type deal. I landed on this one full of sticky sweet pop hooks.
Read More2021: That big mystical sound Mastodon is known for. I enjoy the prog elements of their records, which Hushed has in spades. So there is more switch up. It’s not all thrash, there is time-signature trickery, atmospheric sound…you know, proggy.
Read More2021: Ben Cardew at Pitchfork writes: Altin Gün’s third album arrives with the same mysterious allure as a weirdly shaped parcel found under the Christmas tree. Trapped in lockdown
Read More2021: Great swirling, dreamlike, psychedelic electronic goodness backing sharp-ass rhymes and flow. There is even a great “honestly, we’re outta gas” sample from MJ’s Thriller video

Read More2021: I’m really routing for this guy. It must be hard to be in the shadow of one of the greatest all time rock guitar gods. Wolfy has his own sound here. Mammoth is a solid main stream metal album. Epiphany really stood out for me.
