ANOHNI and the Johnsons - My Back Was a Bridge for You to Cross
85

The band's new record after a long hiatus is a beautiful, melancholic piece of art from start to finish.

Julie Byrne - The Greater Wings
80

"The Greater Wings" offers a dream-like soundscape accompanied by a beautiful guiding voice.

Disclosure - Alchemy
65

The duo's new LP is inoffensively fun, which is both its biggest strength and weakness.

Taylor Swift - Speak Now (Taylor's Version)
50

A definitive improvement upon its base material, however, despite its slight revisions here and there, the overall sound still feels outdated and flat.

Joanna Sternberg - I’ve Got Me
80

"I've Got Me" is a beautiful collection of songs that provide the equivalent of a comforting warm hug.

Lil Uzi Vert - Pink Tape
35

Most certainly, Lil Uzi Vert's "Pink Tape" has its own unique sound; however, the songs suffer from being drawn out, creatively lacking on the lyrical side, and occasionally Uzi's delivery feels awkward.

Sigur Rós - ÁTTA
75

The Icelandic band's first LP in a decade offers a beautiful cinematic soundscape, although it is somewhat frontloaded and occasionally dragged out at times.

Swans - The Beggar
90

"The Beggar" is a euphoric and intoxicating experience that captivates with its hypnotizing soundscape from beginning to end, and it certainly feels like a return to form since "To Be Kind."

Killer Mike - MICHAEL
60

"Michael" should in theory be a hit, but unfortunately it feels flat and feels one-note.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation
80

The Aussie band's new record is their most energetic yet, serving as a homage to thrash metal and unquestionably ranking among their best works to date.

Queens of the Stone Age - In Times New Roman...
65

Inoffensive and a bit scattered, Homme's band delivers a new album that showcases catchy riffs, yet ultimately fails to stand out from their already well-established catalogue.

50

Christine and the Queens' latest release showcases a definite improvement from his last two albums; however, the record, with its nearly two-hour runtime, becomes massively bloated with experimental tracks that mostly do not work in his favor.

Beach Fossils - Bunny
65

Their first record in 6 years maintains an unchanged sound, with both positive and negative effects, offering familiarity to fans but lacking memorability overall.

King Krule - Space Heavy
65

"Space Heavy" definitely has a strong vibe to it, but unfortunately, it feels very one-note and lacks diversity.

Squid - O Monolith
90

Squid's new record delivers an impressive experience from start to finish, characterized by its rich sound and unwavering energy, firmly establishing them as a band worth watching in the coming years.

65

Being sexy and giving off summer vibes is unfortunately all Janelle Monáe’s new LP offers, with a handful of half-baked songs and unecceseray interludes, sprinkled through some highlights.

Foo Fighters - But Here We Are
80

The new Foo Fighters record is a celebration of rock, a heartfelt love letter to the ones we lost, and a light in dark times that everyone can get something out of.

Berliner Philharmoniker - Gustav Mahler: Symphonie No. 5
90

Abbado's interpretation of Mahler's magnum opus is a riveting experience from start to finish.

Colin Stetson - When we were that what wept for the sea
85

Colin Stetson righteously blows his own horn on his new LP, creating an amazing and unique soundscape with his various brass instruments.

Water From Your Eyes - Everyone's Crushed
65

Despite a rough start, Everyone's Crushed finds its footing pretty fast down the tracklist, not being shy of stretching the fabric of rock.
