Reviews

This endearing collection of folk-pop tunes isn’t exactly diverse, but it is catchy as all hell.

Bad Habits closes the album, reworked from their debut and bolstered by more ferocious production that screams through the speakers.

While a lot of the songs tend to blend into one another, with the exception of the slower-paced Chiral Part I, Arecibo is still an impressive debut.

"As a celebration of his 72nd (no less!) birthday, Leon Russell’s Life Journey is without a doubt a humbling reflection of the man’s years."

This isn’t some New Age throwaway though – the plaintive plucking of acoustic guitars and soporific electronics combine with Carey’s hypnotic vocals, creating a shimmering landscape of texture and, indeed, light.

Get some joy in your soul with this one.

Everything added to 20th anniversary edition Illmatic XX is almost as good as the record itself.
