    The Hour of Bewilderbeast
    A work of warm-hearted ambition, embracing ragtime, disco beats, melodic Johnny Marr-isms... and echoes of Bacharach.... A classic debut LP with a lifetime's worth of triumphs and tragedies packed into it. [July 2000, p.112]

    Bow Down To The Exit Sign
    Will quite necessarily go Top Five in any sensible end-of-year poll. [July 2000, p.102]

    SelmaSongs: Music from the Motion Picture Dancer in the Dark
    It's the violently romantic finale 'New World,' though, that should see doubts finally stifled. Rivalling Massive Attack's 'Teardrop' in its breathtaking loveliness, it's among the best things she's done. (Oct. 2000, p.102)

    Art Official Intelligence (Mosaic Thump)
    The immediate impression of 'Art Official Intelligence' is of one big party. [Sep 2000, p.104]

    Stankonia
    The best tracks here are quite unlike anything else in hip hop. [Jan 2001, p.107]

    The Moon & Antarctica
    Big choppy riffs and plaintive vocals recall Pavement in non-quirky mode. [Sep 2000, p.105]

    Everything, Everything
    Like most live LPs, this is ultimately an artefact for fans rather than newcomers, but it's quite some arefact. (Oct 2000, p.112)

    Hyacinths and Thistles
    With only the occasional flawed moment and the cast list up a definite notch or two from previous 6ths album 'Wasp's Nest,' this is a delicate jewel. (Oct 2000, p.104)

    An album that sits together with silken cohesion... (Oct 2000, p.108)

    'Music'... sees Madonna cast as a nu disco diva taking a taxi ride through a world which is definitely hers. Much of it sounds like Daft Punk. It's fun. (Oct 2000, p.100)
