The only way this album could be better is if it were on a C45.

Who could deny their addictive qualities?

Album Review: Various - Look Again To The Wind: Johnny Cash’s Bitter Tears Revisited
Look Again To The Wind blows in less as a tribute album, more a peace pipe around a campfire.
Reviews / Album
Album Review: Jim-E Stack - Tell Me I Belong
A chronicle of geographical and musical vagabondism in which he tries to find his place

Album Review: Trey Songz - Trigga
"This is an album the charts want, not what the world needs."

Album Review: The Knife - Shaken Up
Shaken Up Versions treads too safely, offering no new ventures into the unknown while offering frustration to those yet to experience the live show.
Reviews / Album
Album Review: Joelistics - Blue Volume
Confirms that homegrown hip hop is best when people keep their heads screwed on.
Reviews / Album
Album Review: Chrissie Hynde - Stockholm
There are pleasing head-nodders like Like In The Movies which court both Beatles and Motown sensibilities but overall Stockholm is delightful, if un-wowing.

Album Review: Tom Vek - Luck
Ever the control freak, Tom Vek is still doing everything himself on third album Luck.
Reviews / Live
Live Review: Gary Numan, Rooster Police
He may not have smiled much, but to be this jaggedly powerful after 36 years left the Numanoids a lot to be happy with.

Album Review: LCD Soundsystem - The Long Goodbye: Live At Madison Square Garden
“I’m losing my edge to better-looking people with better ideas and more talent”
Reviews / Album
Album Review: Bobby Fox - The Fantastic
He’s got the looks and moves that make for an eye-popping live show, but The Fantastic Mr. Fox comes across like a comedy album without any punchlines.
