    Midnite Vultures
    Midnite Vultues kind of sounds like an album Prince would have made if he were more interested in being a geek than carressing his own ego.

    The Contino Sessions
    The Contino Sessions is definitely a step in the right direction for the group in terms of continuity and development of their sound, but their are still a few hiccups that they need to work out.

    69 Love Songs
    He jumps styles of music effortlessly, all the while managing to pull things together with touching and inventive lyrics.... One of the best releases of the year.

    Remedy
    One of the problems with the album is that after the super-solid beginning the second half or so of the album just doesn't compare.

    The Soft Bulletin
    A very good slice of experimental pop.

    Play
    It's a fun, varied excursion.

    Black Foliage: Animation Music
    It's sort of a bi-polar album of sorts, as it probably could have been cut down a lot in length and made into a concise gem of an album, but then you'd lose the odd atmosphere of the rest (which will either drive you nuts or space you out).

    If you're a fan of the old Blur material, this disc may not be your thing.

    Beaucoup Fish
    If you like the group's other work, you'll definitely want to pick this up, even though it may take awhile to grow on you. Just don't expect a revolution.

    Keep It Like A Secret
    It's sort of a cross between the epic masterpieces of Perfect From Now On and the shorter, more pop songs of There's Nothing Wrong With Love. Basically, it's another winner from the group.
