    Sock It to Me
    While Green’s sleepy pop-punk songwriting is the stuff of afternoon nap dreams, it’s too bad that the vinyl single isn’t a more viable option, as the longer, slower tracks that fill the spaces between those little gems dissipate the album’s buzz.

    Watch the Throne
    Nothing can be accomplished if someone doesn't stand up and act as the new gold standard. Kanye West and Jay-Z have proven themselves to be, at the very least, kings of just that notion.

    Breakfast
    The album proves worthy enough for the wait, namely due to its shining moments that outweigh the surrounding pitfalls.
    • 75 Metascore

    Milk Famous
    While captivatingly evil at points, the absence of the hooks that made It's Frightening so exceptional can make Milk Famous a difficult match.

    The Gifted
    The problem is, Wale isn’t at the top, he’s simply borrowing that swagger from the A-list guests that decorate The Gifted.

    Carnivale Electricos
    The sense of unbridled joy on Carnivale Electricos is infectious. It defies you not to dance.

    Starting from Nowhere
    Perhaps Heidecker & Wood are creating an album that is meant to be somewhat obtuse and open. Perhaps it's part of the joke. I don't know, but I do know that, like after watching an episode of Tim & Eric, I just feel sort of confused.

    Weekend at Burnie's
    So far, he's kept a high quality to go along with the high volume of his releases, and Weekend at Burnie's is no exception. It won't be his breakout into the mainstream, but if he continues at this rate he'll be there soon enough.

    Union
    Union's production and technical minutiae are immaculate, but as always, those are checks that bounce without the song ideas to cash them.

    Cobra Juicy
    Cobra Juicy is the most technically focused that Black Moth Super Rainbow have ever been, but it also lacks an important degree of their trademark self-contradiction.

    The Hunger Games: Catching Fire [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]
    All in all, this soundtrack is a solid collection of B-level material from a varied selection of artists.

    Rich Forever
    Rich Forever doesn't boast any potential mega-hits. But that's actually a good reason to give this a spin; the songs here are strong without shooting for the stars.
    • 47 Metascore

    The Beginning
    Although the overall plot of the album is sparse, it's hard to deny the enjoyment it can bring to you. If you know what to expect when you hear it, you can take The Beginning for what it is: a feel good album.

    The Plot Against Common Sense
    It's rewarding if given the occasional spin but tiresome if spun too often.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Anastasis
    The album isn't wildly new, which could either please or possibly dismay dedicated DCD fans.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Speed of Things
    Though the compositions at times straddle the line between detailed and busy, on the whole, The Speed of Things is a seamless, competent, and lighthearted pop release.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's No Leaving Now
    His raspy voice still aches and arches over the songs and caries his wandering soul and eager heart, but near every other facet of There's No Leaving Now is compressed, leaving a much smaller impression than his previous albums.

    Tempest
    Tempest delivers yet another collection of the ramblers that have populated Dylan's records since Time Out of Mind.

    The Love EP
    While every cover on The Love may not be exceptional, Corinne Bailey Rae once again exhibits remarkable vocal and musical range.

    Limbo
    We attempt to find a pattern in the nonsense (both in the vocals and in the music itself), to figure out what this is supposed to be saying. But Copeland is there at the knobs, twisting things just out of our reach.

    Playin' In Time With the Deadbeat
    With its chilling soundscapes and cryptic feel, Deadbeat plays as much as a piece of twisted musical theatre as it does a proper studio record.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Long Slow Dance
    The resulting effort, Long Slow Dance, is a perfect example of time's true, unpredictable power, a collection of 12 songs that demonstrate true focus and dedication while displaying telltale signs of over-analysis and stagnation.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Content
    Be it from an as-yet-uncertain lineup or a sign of life and things to come from this ensemble, the unknown and the unheard may be the most fulfilling aspects Content has to offer.

    The Lion the Beast the Beat
    Although the majority of the album is indeed predictable, the band did take some risks.
    • 74 Metascore

    Black Sun
    Overall, the few great tracks balance out the filler, and Gold Fields manages to forge a hodgepodge of weathered songs into something wholly emotional.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Michael
    While nothing on this record comes close to rivaling any of his past material, you can't deny the urge to indulge yourself in something labeled, "new Michael Jackson," and that's where Michael succeeds.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dead Son Rising
    Dead Son Rising is neither terrible nor extraordinary.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Too Young to Be in Love
    Too Young to Be in Love may be a lot of things, but kitschy is not one of them, as Hunx and His Punx yet again provide a fresh take on the first generations of rock and roll, executed with tact and sparkle.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Royal Headache
    With a handful of infectious hooks and a gem of a vocalist, Royal Headache has the tools to capture an arena audience by the ears.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Saltwater
    If Brazos can focus on their strengths, they have the potential to make a pleasant, summery mark on pop music.
