    Four (Acts of Love)
    While all of these versions differ wildly from their originals, they also lose a withering amount of weight due to arrangements that are generally sparser and slowed down.... The other half of FOUR‘s tracks are original, and although they veer more on the foreboding side, they also end before Harvey can establish any kind of differing mood.

    Harakiri
    Throughout the album, it seems that Tankian is preparing the listener for something bigger, something serious.

    Researching the Blues
    While it's still a worthy comeback for a band way past its prime, Researching the Blues is similarly only a few solid tracks away from greatness.

    Flux Outside
    Despite its flaws, Flux Outside is an album filled to the brim with energy, sincerity, and fearlessness of a music world overrun by genre conventions.

    Goblin
    All this underlying pathos ultimately makes for a sad and honest chapter in Tyler's career - his young, ground-breaking, fascinating, magnetic career that's only like, three years old. He'll get off that couch of his soon enough.

    Original Colors
    It's something bigger, wilder, and less pop structured.

    13.0.0.0.0
    13.0.0.0.0 is a solid album with beautiful moments, but in the end, it lacks the grit that could push TTNG higher.

    Never Trust a Happy Song
    A lot of them work; and some fall short. But even with that being said, for a debut, it's a fun, promising effort from a band who has already established themselves as a live show mainstay in the indie realm.

    An Omen EP
    The EP's major aesthetic shifts do lead to one issue: the lack of a core or soul to How to destroy angels_, a shortcoming which will hopefully be resolved on the outfit's forthcoming long-player.

    Radiosurgery
    There are plenty of catchy guitar riffs and just enough lyrics that stick, leaving the band to shine in a good way.

    ...And It Shook Me
    It’s an easy album to love, but hard to love it more than anything else.

    Tapes
    Ultimately, though, he [Edwin Congreave] knew exactly what his audience would enjoy, and he delivered accordingly.

    Luciano Berio: Laborintus II
    At first glance, it's easy to brush off Laborintus II as half an hour of experimental drivel, but those that stick with it and let it soak will be rewarded.

    Loma Vista
    It seems Family of the Year's fun-drenched formula is working just fine.
    • 73 Metascore

    Joan Of Arc
    Where other releases traded in musical complexities, Joan of Arc strips the process down only to affirm Kinsella's forceful narrative intricacy.

    Cynic's New Year
    This fourth LP once again comes close to making that leap [from second-tier to A-list], but ultimately it falls just short of the mark.

    Native To
    Even though Native To is a pleasant introduction, there's nothing urgent here.

    Enjoy the Company
    Enjoy the Company isn't here to tell you anything you haven't already heard, but if you're looking for some hopscotch rock just to keep you company, it can do the job.

    This Machine
    This Machine is not the result of the Dandys turning a corner or shifting direction, but rather taking the best of where they've been and applying it to where they're going.

    Handwritten
    Handwritten houses some of Fallon's strongest compositions to date, and while it ain't punk, neither is The Gaslight Anthem.

    Underrated Silence
    It's ambient electronica that exudes shoegaze impressionism that is also as effective as ever.

    Traveler
    It's not his most cohesive batch of songs.... But for a man who creates songs of which he says, "To me, they're for everybody to play," there's no reason not to include a little bit of this and a little bit of that.

    Talent
    As it stands, Talent is a decent album content with being at that level, not fighting to rise or fall any notches.
    • 67 Metascore

    Danzig in the Moonlight
    Danzig In The Moonlight is as much exploratory as comforting, and Stringfellow flashes muscle as arranger and producer throughout.

    Burning Daylight
    While [pitch dark, occult-inspired music] might sound a bit novelty or even kitschy at first, it makes more sense once the initial discord wears off.

    He sounds confident and comfortable, doling out that trademark weird.

    100 Acres of Sycamore
    The album's understated bleakness could be less uniform and more dynamic, but it's still a pleasant listening experience.

    True [EP]
    Solange delivers an EP stocked with promising parts slightly dashed by a burgeoning identity crisis.
    • 75 Metascore

    Kudos
    Kudos shows a lot of potential. Songs like "Yazuka Park" reveal that they're capable of switching things up. They just need to balance it out, instead of riding steadily on the same distortion-heavy waves.

    Go Outside
    A coherent yet varied album.
