On Oni Pond, their fifth, is quite possibly the closest they will ever come to being considered de-cluttered.- Blurt Magazine

The mixtape of emotions Trentemoller has produced on Lost is proof of his virtuosity.- Blurt Magazine

It’s merely average, one likely to fade into memory once the buzz dies down and the fire goes out.- Blurt Magazine

Despite the duplications from previous collections and a heavy emphasis on dubious alternate mixes, true devotees will likely still find Made in California an essential acquisition.- Blurt Magazine

Yes, this type of record has been done before, and arguably better, but there are still some powerful tracks on The Things.- Blurt Magazine

Allegedly a bubblegum record, in reality this is Collins’ take on psychedelic pop, with twinkling keyboards, polite guitars and a heretofore unimagined Collins croon that could charm the panties off a lesbian punk rocker.- Blurt Magazine

It’s that free-flowing vibe that helps make this seem more like an overdue reunion for the home town crowd as much as any attempt at a polished performance.- Blurt Magazine

While that sad waste of talent and potential deals the album a serious blow, the rest of the set proves mostly satisfying, even when the song selection remains relatively unknown.- Blurt Magazine

Their latest, crammed with 17 tracks, will likely be a case of too much of a good thing for all but the hardcore fans.- Blurt Magazine

Tales of Us unveils yet again how talented Goldfrapp truly is as together Alison and Gregory continue to craft music that does not pigeonhole them into a set genre; they simply make exceptional music.- Blurt Magazine

Elvis at Stax, discreetly packaged, replete with complete credits for musicians, singers, and studio personnel, and excellent (if fawning) Robert Gordon liner notes, is a nice corrective.- Blurt Magazine

The lush production and whimsical tone complement May’s discerning ear for song arrangements, making Warm Blanket his most endearing effort yet.- Blurt Magazine

The good folks at Shout Factory didn’t opt to only offer these discs a second time around, but instead provided added enticement via two bonus extras, a stunning live recording from Nashville’s Polk Theater, recorded around the same time as I Feel Alright, and a live DVD from the Cold Creek Correctional Facility where Earle had earlier been incarcerated.- Blurt Magazine

King Khan is, so far, pursuing a sound that is more huge than slick, and it sounds great.- Blurt Magazine

It all combines to create an album of magical (realist) splendor, a journey into a past which will always have more to offer each time you listen to it.- Blurt Magazine

The ferocity in their delivery and the sheer sweep of their eager entreaties create an anthemic exposition, resulting in a series of songs that make it impossible to sit still.- Blurt Magazine

["Arkestra" is] a mess and a resolution all at once, a miasma shot through with clarity. The rest of the album is good, but if you need one reason to play it again, this is it.- Blurt Magazine

It’s unlikely that Carrier will be the offering that brings that promise home. Yet it is a superb showcase for the pair’s ample prowess.- Blurt Magazine

The impotence of railing against it is a theme running through a lot of the record, and in the case of Nightingale Floors, coming to terms with the past has freed Rogue Wave to turn in what might be their finest work.- Blurt Magazine

Opening the door of your mind’s eye to the psychedelic sludge and acid punk hooks of Slave Vows will gain you a lot of decadent pleasure, little insight and even less mercy.- Blurt Magazine

These slow-rolling, Southern-bred sentiments serve him well, and indeed Gone Away Backward appears to be a fine step forward.- Blurt Magazine

While the tunefulness of these tracks may not be so obvious--and in many cases, almost entirely elusive--she entices her listeners to peel back the layers and discover the shimmering glow that emanates from within.- Blurt Magazine
