Although it teases at the contrary for its first half, the idea that we really have no idea quite what to expect from the future of Bon Iver is the greatest gift this four-song breath gives us.- Lost At Sea

Twelve Angry Months is Lucas' best album in a decade, and arguably his catchiest. Not his most powerful.- Lost At Sea

When not so buried in dank sonics, Farrar's familiar songwriting drawl feels more crisp and lively; being able to hear the record's engaging pop hooks is a revelation. On the other hand, this newfound production clarity reveals that Farrar might be running out of ideas.- Lost At Sea

His band's former work may be referenced, but Adams' personal stamp is unmistakable.- Lost At Sea

Thanks largely in part to founding member/mainstay Robert "3D" Del Naja, there still remains that indefinable, singular aspect to Massive Attack that still carried the group over the hump of 2003's tepid 100th Window and onto the superior Heligoland.- Lost At Sea

Travellers appears top-heavy, with a mid-section whose only correlation to time travel is that its melodies could've felt predictable in the 1890s, with the limitations of straight 4/4 beginning to wear. But listeners are rewarded for not giving up after that stretch.- Lost At Sea

X & Y is uninspired adult pop that drops jaws only in its capacity to elicit yawns.- Lost At Sea

All things considered, Washington Square Serenade is a bit nonchalant by Earle's standards.- Lost At Sea

Ultimately there's so many ideas vying for attention on this album that there is not enough room for its songs to breathe. And the discordant styles, some of them on their own of much merit, never truly mesh together.- Lost At Sea

The problem is simply that Gang of Four got Entertainment! right the first time, whether they like it or not.- Lost At Sea

Genuinely soulful and unhindered by a slavish devotion to traditional Americana, The Opera Circuit is a tour de force for Hinson.- Lost At Sea

Set Free gives 2001’s Know by Heart - critically acclaimed and widely regarded as Amanset’s masterpiece - a serious run for its money.- Lost At Sea

Kenna has the indie roots to bridge the gap between pop and everything left of center. This effort has already created some stir between the two. My only concern is that the album's lack of balance may make for a one hitter quitter.- Lost At Sea

The good news is that the album is downright delightful. The bad news is that if you've followed Holland since her first release, you're probably not looking for an album that's merely consistent singer/songwriter fare: no, you want the highs and the lows.- Lost At Sea

In this case I've been compelled to return a lot. Weird accomplishment for a pop singer. It's a five-or-six-listens album.- Lost At Sea

While the album is based around the repetitive choppy hook and big beat, some quiet building moments of the heavy songs lack a sense of creativity and movement towards a real climactic edge.- Lost At Sea

While the similarities to Morretti's other group are what make Little Joy so easy to digest, they are also what make it seem somewhat unremarkable.- Lost At Sea

While the best tracks are the most uneasy and strung-out - like when bearing the deranged, astral colors of the Of Montreal kin, “Marry Me” or relishing the fabulous debauchery of the Pixieish devil’s waltz, “My Wicked Wicked Ways” - it can never be denied how honestly happy Lopez sounds on Knitting Needles & Bicycle Bells.- Lost At Sea

Playtime is Over, Wiley's third album, is full of tunes long on hookcraft considering their thrifty origins.- Lost At Sea

Where Soul Coughing was defying specific genres and pushing norms, Skittish was scaled back, raw; Haughty Melodic is plugged in, not quite as downtrodden and surprisingly accessible.- Lost At Sea
