The Smile - A Light for Attracting Attention
88

To call this band Radiohead-adjacent could be an understatement. Not only are the band members 66% composed of the main Radiohead protagonists Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood, but producer Nigel Godrich’s magic touch is also sprinkled all over the record. Even with the (sometimes overly) obvious comparisons to be made with Radiohead’s rockier records like Hail to The Thief or In Rainbows, The Smile’s debut A Light for Attracting Attention does just enough to warrant the new ... read more

Perfume Genius - Ugly Season
95

This entire album is a slow-burning, tension-building, meticulous amalgamation of sounds that have a magical aura surrounding them. Somehow, the feeling presented is one of unease and urgency while still being serene, composed and peaceful. This makes for a very ambiguous sentiment that is simultaneously puzzling and familiar for the listener. Some kind of mystical power that unapologetically radiates from this album.

King Creosote & Jon Hopkins - Diamond Mine
95

It's almost like this album aims to be music in its purest form; dry and intimate vocals, raw and stripped instrumentals, effortless ambiance, poetic yet direct lyrics. What a beautiful piece of art.

Rostam - Changephobia
85

Rostam is as clever as ever on his latest LP. Such crisp and compelling production topped with Rostam's new & improved singing voice, singing appealing and instantly catchy melodies. A very immersive pop record from a brilliant artist that only seems to get better and better.

Even though Rostam has a specific framework in which he thrives, his music remains so diverse and distinctive that it's hard to put him in a bubble. Every track shows a new facet of production techniques, of tone, of ... read more

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - G_d's Pee AT STATE'S END!
90

Get a good groove going, slowly add stuff to it, incrementally go up in speed and take us on a hell of a trip, GYBE!

No but really, this is all they need to do, they are the masters of it and they're showing that off in full effect here. In classic GYBE fashion, this album feels like an grand odyssey. For the first time in a while, it's like if they decided not to shy away from their endless ambition and obvious talent.

Beautiful, yet still viscous, poignant and perfectly paced from ... read more
