Album Review: McKisko - Eximo

Eximo is musical art at its finest – Dirt Story Howl one of the most beautiful songs you’ll hear this year.

Album Review: Omar Souleyman - Wenu Wenu

...he’s made what’s essentially a live album, with synth god Rizan crafting remarkable snaking Middle Eastern melodies over the kind of relentless electronic hand percussion that’ll remind you you’re still alive.

Album Review: The Ancients - Night Bus

Ultimately this is a gorgeous, wide-ranging melancholic pop album that embraces sonic friction, frayed edges and melodic beauty with equal aplomb.

Album Review: The Necks - Open

Open is a living masterwork for those with open ears.

Album Review: Georgia Fair - Trapped Flame

In the end it’s stripped-back tracks Old Friend and Wrong Side that feel more like they have something to say.

Album Review: Eliza Doolittle - In Your Hands

The songstress powers through these tracks effortlessly and she knows her strengths. But the album also sounds like something we’ve already heard.

Album Review: Day Ravies - Tussle

This is modern music, just with an eye to 1991.

Album Review: Chase & Status - Brand New Machine

The final track, Alive, is incredibly affirming stuff, however. More of that please.

Album Review: Alex Lloyd - Urban Wilderness

Tracks such as Light On You, Untouchable Moon and Reign On Me prove Lloyd’s strengths lie in his softer, more heartfelt compositions.

Album Review: The Avett Brothers - Magpie And The Dandelion

The Avett Brothers are steadfastly clinging to the traits which made albums like 2007’s Emotionalism so special, but as they quest for mainstream acceptance you get the feeling that their grip may be slowly slipping.

Album Review: Seabellies - Fever Belle

The band’s instrumentation is precise and energising, but Fever Belle remains an ambitious, if somewhat over-familiar attempt at expanding horizons.
