The Weather Station - self titled (2017) - "Lindeman reinvents her songcraft with a vital new energy, framing her prose-poem narratives in bolder musical settings."
Alvvays - Antisocialites (2017) - "For all its darker and uneasy lyrical content, this is still a record that begs to be blasted on road trips and at rooftop parties."
Detroit (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (2017) - "features original architects of the immortal ‘Motown Sound’ as well as a new song from GRAMMY® Award-winning multi platinum hip-hop icons The Roots"
Wild Billy Childish & The Buff Medways - The Xfm Sessions (2007) - "La dimensione live, oltretutto con qualità quasi da bootleg, fornisce all’istrionico Childish il territorio ideale nel quale sfogare il suo sudato vigore musicale"
Joni Mitchell - Hejira (1976) - "a meditation on the value and melancholy of being alone, her guitar imitating the rhythms and expanse of the road... a real grown woman album and may not make tremendous sense to anyone under 30."
Hunt for the Wilderpeople Soundtrack (2016) - "Surprisingly interesting, dreamy, and really good. Great meandering, calm background music for creative endeavors. Or, while plunking away at Excel spreadsheets and data all day."
Thundercat - Drunk (2017) - "a lopsided wonderland of stoned soul"
Fred Locks - Star Liner True Rastaman (1976) - "I would listen to this record anytime and it makes me feel like going outside and sitting under a tree and covering myself with leaves and grass."
IDLES - Brutalism (2017) - "A rare rock record with the rage, urgency, wit and shattering of complacency usually found in grime."
Tommy Keene - Strange Alliance (1982) - "He introduces a sharply chiming power-pop formula from which he would rarely deviate from for the rest of his still-ongoing career."
Wand - Plum (2017) - "an intuitive work that exists at the confluence of avant-pop, psychedelia and garage-rock."
Queens of the Stone Age - Villains (2017) - "It’s equal parts disco inferno and devil-may-care experimentation."
Wolf People - Steeple (2010) - "Some may hear this mélange of spindly proto-metal riffs, Fairport Convention-style electric folk and batty harmonica parts, and find it hard to believe that this was written and recorded any time after 1972."
Dan Auerbach - Waiting on a Song (2017) - "exudes his signature retro-soul fetishism"
