    All Things Bright and Beautiful
    Owl City's second major-label effort is much more mature, dynamic and well-rounded. [Jun 2011, p.109]

    Streets Of Gold
    The album as a whole sweeps across a broad range of stylistic tones, maintaining levity while dabbling in comparably serious musical pursuits. [Aug 200, p.146]

    Recorrupted [EP]
    Recorrupted's five tracks make for a solid stopgap release.

    Pullhair Rubeye
    The whole thing possesses the air of a woozy reverie, a gentle disengagement from reality. [Jun 2007, p.162]

    Holger Hiller
    Hiller's sense of humor and eclectic tendencies make this recording a deep listening experience. [March 2001, p.81]

    Loop Static
    The eight tracks here defy formula, instead feeding off of one another in a cannibalistic frenzy of samples and constantly shifting beats... This is a deceptive and brilliant album. [#147, p.98]

    Effector
    As the follow-up to 1997's III, Effector succintly incorporates that disc's pristine sheen and futuristic atmospherics, while moving into more quirky, funk-laden territory. [12/2000, p.94]

    Not a true turkey in the bunch. [#153, p. 83]

    Neurometrik
    At an age when most of his peers have ceased to be relevant, [Richard H. Kirk] continues to forge highly charged music that seethes with vitality. [#147, p.89]

    Adventures In Coverland
    On this disc, which collects tracks from three limited-edition singles and adds a few bonus cuts, the group shows their range even more effectively through carefully (and wisely) chosen covers.

    What Happens in Hell Stays in Hell
    What Happens in Hell Stays in Hell finds the trio beefing up their sound without betraying the genre. [Sep 2011, p.116]

    Am I the Enemy?
    Am I The enemy is their second-best album and a reason to believe in a brighter future. [Sep 2011, p.120]

    Agitations
    In Reno especially, the Skulls' Agitation is one of the safest bets a punk can make. [Oct 2011, p.106]

    Drop Out of Life
    Lyrically, Dowdalls covers familiar turf for the genre, mostly using the album's runtime to either lament or skewer past loves. It's perfectly appropriate and expected, but not as impactful as some of the recent works by TTNY's peers.
