Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters
98

The great strength of 'Fetch The Bolt Cutters' is that it’s frenetic, direct and confrontational. Far from overproduction —something that many current albums sin— and based on percussive rhythms, this collection of songs brings the experience closer to a human ritual or an invitation to know the true essence of the artist.

The Microphones - Microphones in 2020
89

This record is an anomaly for these times where everything goes so fast — streaming, fast food service and single hits. Phil Elverum has a lot of guts to release a 45 minutes memoir-opera song that grabs you until the end with a sharp narrative detail.

Nick Cave & Warren Ellis - CARNAGE
86

The creative collaboration between Nick Cave and Warren Ellis (from their film soundtracks or in the Bad Seeds) is hard to predict and it just happens. The new album 'Carnage' (with an emotional and baroque style, wrapped in Gregorian melodies) again confirm that natural bond that exists between them.

Cassandra Jenkins - An Overview On Phenomenal Nature
85

An album that mixes ambient, folk and a 'spoken word' arrangements that become a key, impressionist and detailed piece that honors moments of intimacy. Plus, it's an unexpected eulogy to David Berman (Purple Mountains and Silver Jews).

Black Country, New Road - For the first time
91

An incredible, fierce and immersive debut. This London group has been sharing excellent advances for some time now, and at last, we can listen to an extraordinary and very complete piece, with a promising future looming.

The Weather Station - Ignorance
87

A collection of songs that navigate between the mystical art pop of Fleetwood Mac and the evocative minimalism of Talk Talk. A subtle and provocative album.

shame - Drunk Tank Pink
84

A twisted, unhinged and fascinating return! Great album.
