Album Review: The Weeknd - Beauty Behind The Madness

The Weeknd has become one of the biggest urban music names in the two years between last album Kiss Land and new effort Beauty Behind The Madness.

He's now a radio staple thanks to one of its singles (Can't Feel My Face), but the up-tempo of that smash hit isn't what you should expect to hear throughout this LP. The Weeknd is still dark, just maybe not as mysterious as before. Kanye-produced Tell Your Friends could be a sleeper hit and collaborations with Ed Sheeran (Dark Times) and Lana Del Rey (Prisoner) impress. Another sound effort from the Canadian.
