Skip the first track and Greedy Baby is a welcome addition to the Plaid catalogue, though not nearly as essential as their earlier works.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Sex Change will please both their fans and newcomers; in fact it might be one of the best intros to their work so far.- Tiny Mix Tapes

The Eternal is accessible, listenable, and all the rest: another consistent album from the consistent rock band Sonic Youth.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Perhaps the most that can be said for Have Fun With God is that it is reverent of its exceptional source material.- Tiny Mix Tapes

On the whole, Manners mostly evens out into a consistently listenable experience, the joy of one absurdly successful track spread out in variations and reformulations across the entirety of an album with inevitable dilution in the process.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Bitchitronics may not be bold or experimental, but that’s irrelevant to Bitchin Bajas’ concerns--that being the craft of pure sound, as Eno put it, “ignorable as it is interesting.”- Tiny Mix Tapes

Their distinct blend of shoegaze and Americana sounds more natural than it should, while remaining, at most, vaguely reminiscent of other bands. Once the clarity of their songwriting matches their musical vision, there won’t be any need to keep peppering praise with regret.- Tiny Mix Tapes

All of Us, Together doesn't feel right as the first full-length statement being made by an artist of this caliber, but it definitely serves as an appealingly breezy 45 minutes of summer dance music.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Even though …and then you shoot your cousin never quite betrays its allegiance to either criticism or satire and is consequently an awkward, variable amalgam of both, it offers something important in its efficacy to disrupt that logic and pave out a new line of progression for a mature act.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Its (mostly) gimmick-free, clear-eyed dreamer propulsion will buoy you. But if, like me, you're looking for something a little deeper in an instrumental rock record and you don't unrestrainedly sanctify this band, you may want to hold out till the next Do Make Say Think album.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Love is Dead is formally earnest and it succumbs as a product of its (unearnest) production, an art of sincerity lost underneath. Love is Dead, damnably, is sincerity in place of irony, which is to say sincerity outside irony. It has no world to tease of tense.- Tiny Mix Tapes

I'm not writing the Walkmen off just yet, but this is a genre that you can't afford to stay in one place and hope to keep an edge on the competition.- Tiny Mix Tapes

While HEALTH and Get Color were cohesive collections of songs that created a snapshot in time of where the artists were when creating them, listening to Death Magic feels like we’re seeing not just the band they are currently, but all the bands they could be.- Tiny Mix Tapes

You can add this record to the pile of fun, entertaining albums that is sure to get people moving at any party, although it offers little else.- Tiny Mix Tapes

This album is legitimately well made, and despite his limitations as a rapper, The Game has skill enough to support his charisma.- Tiny Mix Tapes

The strongest feeling I get from At War With The Mystics is that it's a wank riddled parody amalgam of The Flaming Lips back catalogue, focusing on the earlier stuff.- Tiny Mix Tapes

The battle between the cream and the shit ends in a perpetual give and take, but it's the positives of A Hundred Miles Off we will remember in the long run.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Waterfall is promising, but it’s perhaps the first Evian Christ release that hasn’t amazed me.- Tiny Mix Tapes

Tracks such as The Fragile’s “Ripe (With Decay)” are these kinds of delightful journeys. “World” and “Over and Out” only display longer extensions of single ideas, which make them still a few points shy of the band’s best.- Tiny Mix Tapes

While The Morning Benders navigate the unstable boundary between tried-and-true pop structure and spacey excursions, the songs fall apart when they lean too far in either direction.- Tiny Mix Tapes

While it offers just enough in the way of individuality to stave off a disappearance within the impersonal grid of the received and the conventional, it still can’t quite fuse this into a coherent personality that transcends its inhibiting foundations.- Tiny Mix Tapes

While Vanderslice's consummate production creates several indelible pieces of music, the stark repetition of John Darnielle's songs seems all the more apparent on his full-band numbers.- Tiny Mix Tapes
