Album Review: The National - Trouble Will Find Me
Fewer words, but maybe less obtuse, more revealing.
Reviews / Album
Album Review: Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - English Electric
Altogether – right down to the Dazzle Ships-style cover art by Peter Saville – this is just another OMD album of the classic model.

Album Review: Ian McCulloch - Holy Ghosts
Some of Holy Ghosts is quite wonderful – particularly through the first half – but you might have to dig for it.

Live Review: The Drones, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
As it echoes away, again realise you’ve seen one of the few bands that lives up to the claims often put on them.

Live Review: Dig It Up! Sydney
If you didn’t find something – whether old favourite or new discovery – through the day, you’re a hard marker, or at the wrong day out.

Album Review: Mick Harvey - FOUR (Acts Of Love)
FOUR… is just another example of Harvey’s careful eye and ear, and a talent that can be confident, self-effacing and honest all at once.

Album Review: Iron & Wine - Ghost On Ghost
Overall, it’s another well-crafted item from a brand of quality.

Album Review: The Flaming Lips - The Terror
It’s probably up to you to go with them as they dig around their psyches, or if you just want to remember the balloons.

Live Review: Wilco
Listen, and you found one of the greatnesses of Wilco. It’s making the intricate sound easy. It all fits. And the fact they’ve all lucked into being in this band, at this time.

A Machine Called Wilco
“Absolutely I had my punk rock phase – I see plenty of things to rebel against. At this point of my life, personally, I’m rebelling against being an arrested development adolescent – that’s worth rebelling against.”

Live Review: Bruce Springsteen & The E-Street Band
Then they make grown men weep. For, in that mournful harmonica and opening couplet “The screen-door slams/Mary’s dress waves”, Thunder Road is the memory of every girl you’ve known.

Album Review: Billy Bragg - Tooth & Nail
Despite the setting, it’s still a Billy Bragg record: an affectionate hug, the tea’s brewing, occasional proletariat battle hymn.
