The Reviews Are In

Plenty of big name releases were reviewed this week.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Specter At The Feast

"The album definitely warrants a listen, just don't expect a marked progression."

The Strokes - Comedown Machine

"This quintet's insouciance and New York City suavity prevails."

Off With Their Heads - Home

"It's not all doom and gloom though, Off With Their Heads manage to redeem themselves in the moments where Home finds its own sound among the punk rock milieu."

Emma Louise - Vs Head Vs Heart

"People have fallen over themselves for Tori Amos, Lykke Li and Bat For Lashes, so there's no reason they shouldn't do the same for Emma Louise."

Justin Timberlake - The 20/20 Experience

"JT is one of the few artists who can afford to wait six years between records and still know that in 12 months you'll hear traces of this album's legacy all over the pop charts."

Current Swell - Long Time Ago

"This record will please most with an ear for indie and acoustic pop, but only the most diehard would call the album essential."

Domino - Where The Desert Meets The Sea

"Here's hoping this debut, enjoyable though it is, is a sign of more brilliance to come."

Camperdown & Out - Couldn't Be Better

"Music like this is fun and although minutely annoying, it's difficult to hate."

British India - Controller

"They know what works for them, they do it well and they won't change for anyone. That's all there is to it."
