The Reviews Are In

Staff Writer

What we've been having a listen to lately

Tracer - El Pisolero

"Hopefully Tracer will be encouraged to blossom into a finer tuned and more individual unit than they currently are, which in today's musical climate would unfortunately be a rarity."

Jay-Z - Magna Carta... Holy Grail

"Jay-Z has nothing left to say beyond a 16-bar guest verse, something he needs to ponder before embarking on another album."

Melody Pool - The Hurting Scene

"The Hurting Scene is a mature and poised debut album that makes a lasting impression with its poetic and eloquent treatise on love via traditional musical forms and sympathetic instrumental accompaniment."

Letlive - The Blackest Beautiful

"You'll need a Gatorade or two to replenish after listening to The Blackest Beautiful. It'll be energy well expended, though."

Glass Towers - Halcyon Days

"It's distinctly 'poppy' without being saccharine and will make you want to throw an old school house party just for old times' sake."

Vydamo - Becoming Human

"While you will be disappointed if you go in wanting Art vs. Science (even the most happy-pop here isn't that scale of happy-pop), here Finn shows some distinct – and new – chops of his own."
