    Nothing stands out too much, though, and that's a trait it shares with the rest of the band's ouvre. Nonetheless, this is another good effort from a great band who are coming close to veteran status.

    If The Offspring want to stay in their comfort zone, there are plenty of fans who won’t object, but it won’t keep them relevant. On the plus side, Let the Bad Times Roll offers hints of creative tangents that could revitalize the band next time around – if they’re willing to challenge themselves.

    Man of the Woods, a funky, country-laced experiment that’s not nearly as bad as its already damned reputation suggests. Though the lyrics might be.

    All in all this is a refreshing, infectious, and unpretentious album that’s big on sound.

    Until the Horror Goes could probably use a little more of this resignation.

    While first single “Believe” seems to mimic the worst qualities of a Coldplay deep cut, the album’s remaining 11 tracks adhere more to The National’s tightly wound brooding, and with good reason.

    The album takes The Hood Internet to the next level, and it proves they have the chops to work with more than just already beloved songs.

    Dimension delivers because of Joe Perry.

    While some of that experimentation and ornamentation is thrilling, some is unneeded. Phase One works better when excess is lopped off.

    Donda is Kanye West’s best album since 2013’s Yeezus. Those who stuck with him through thick and thin will love it, while the rest of us can safely dip our toes back in the water.

    The swirling pallet does drone a bit, but the band has certainly carved out their own unique sound that should impress synth-heads and orchestral pop fans alike.

    With time, greater individuality will come. Right now, this is an accomplished and emotive statement of intent, cinematic in scope and able to raise goose bumps at will.

    It’s always a good reminder that everyone wonders what’s wrong with them, especially when its done so honestly, plainly, and engagingly as this.

    Wild One is a deeply personal tale of coming into adulthood from a band that certainly has some promising growth ahead.

    With all these lovely and understated moments, Driver is a worthy and rewarding sophomore effort, even if it’s not the most dynamic.

    Dream Widow could’ve easily been a charming but disposable bit of marketing for Studio 666, or a throwaway pastiche of several legendary death and thrash metal groups. Fortunately, it transcends both of those possibilities to be a genuinely great record. The musicianship is expectedly superb, but what’s most commendable is Grohl’s ability to shift his voice from familiar grittiness to full guttural hegemony.
