Album Review: Deerhunter - Monomania

With the hits and misses balancing each other out, this isn’t the album Monomania the single hinted at.

Album Review: Mudhoney - Vanishing Point

It’s clear Vanishing Point doesn’t take itself too seriously and despite hitting their 50s, Mudhoney are seriously enjoying themselves.

Album Review: Phoenix - Bankrupt!

Bankrupt is Phoenix’s most polished release to date.

Album Review: Junip - Junip

The entire sound of the album is something of an easy listening masterpiece – which is kind of really an oxymoron of sorts.

Album Review: REM - Green (Deluxe Edition)

The extra disc here documents one of their live peaks, from the 11 months they spent touring the album and becoming a truly world-class attraction.

Album Review: Wire - Change Becomes Us

Wire have not only reinvented themselves, but have transcended beyond their 2011 album Red Barked Tree and raised the bar even higher.

Album Review: Vampire Weekend - Modern Vampires Of The City

It hits an emotional chord that’s hard to explain but with angelic choirs, arpeggios of harpsichord and indecipherably picturesque lyrics, you won’t find this kind of uplifting despair anywhere else.

Album Review: She & Him - Volume 3

Volume 3 builds up on what’s come before without really building out. Deschanel and Ward have their thing, and they’re sticking to it.

Album Review: Airbourne - Black Dog Barking

They’ve released better records too, but Black Dog Barking is a boisterous aural assault that should justifiably have tears of joy welling up in the eyes of many a rock tragic.

Album Review: Deptford Goth - Life After Defo

In the end, this is a fine debut, very rooted in ‘early 2010s’ electro sounds and hopefully a sign of better things to come.

Album Review: The National - 'Trouble Will Find Me'

Intelligent, beautifully orchestrated and emotionally engaging indie rock, expertly balancing conviction with fragility.

Album Review: After The Fall - 'Unkind'

Hardcore punk at its most brutal and best.
