Madonna's 12th album has a good title and a nice cover, but that's almost as much as you can say in its favour. [Jun 2012, p.77]- Uncut

They cite Wagner as an influence, sharing his bombast but none of the drama. [Apr 2012, p.69]- Uncut

An over-produced set of soppy ballads, Eagles-styled soft-rock and cod-disco. Sadly, the once great voice is shot, too. [Dec 2016, p.28]- Uncut

Finds her plumbing new depths of pomposity. [Aug 2006, p.84]- Uncut

An unctuous solo album mixing flaccid new songs with slick retreads of classics. [Jan 2018, p.24]- Uncut

Where Flying Lotus scatterbrain brings emotive grooves out of madness, GLK can only manage ugly, mostly boring sketches. [Nov 2012, p.75]- Uncut

From the Top of Willamette Mountain sounds more confident than the UK debut he released earlier this year.- Uncut

A dozen songs of unremitting blandness by a man with absolutely nothing left to say. [Oct 2005, p.96]- Uncut

Toxicity is virtually unlistenable: thrash metal splintered into a million pieces by unnecessary time changes, topped off with excruciatingly theatrical vocals. [Dec 2001, p.118]- Uncut

Moffat doesn't do much with Mendelssohn's music except to chop it into annoying loops or stretch it out into quivering ambience that lacks the warmth and charm of his previous cut-up efforts. [Jun 2017, p.33]- Uncut

It hard to work out what's more annoying from the rest, be it Dustin Payseur's forgot-my-gym-kit vocals, the self-important but frankly juvenile ambient interludes, otr the neat riffs, which sound like plugins from some indie-pop iPad composition app. [May 2013, p.67]- Uncut

Starts badly and gets worse for a very long time (77 minutes). [Jan 2002, p.146]- Uncut

"Heaven" is a decent stab at '80s synth pop; "Looking Hot" and "Push And Shove" mix bubblegum R&B with ragga-inspired middle eights; the rest is rather forgettable. [Dec 2012, p.75]- Uncut

It might work as visual theatre, but as an album, it's horribly relentless. [Jun 2016, p.71]- Uncut

No range of light here, just a wan glow that denies the need for shade. [Apr 2014, p.71]- Uncut

It was the anger and angst of a jilted 20-year-old that gave the original songs their edge--something entirely absent from these blandly matured acoustic versions. [Aug 2005, p.90]- Uncut

Much of this flaccid digi-guitar funk sounds like rough ideas Daft Punk rejected for Discovery. [Jun 2002, p.122]- Uncut

Perhaps the most inappropriately-titled album since The Best Of Sting. [Dec 2003, p.116]- Uncut

Chiefly consists of lumpen and joyless AOR rock, with a few rhythm loops to give an illusion of modernity. [Apr 2002, p.104]- Uncut

Their ragtag religious signifiers, stretching from the Mediterranean to Bengal, feel like gap year blog entries, and Cisneros' wizened sage delivery is ludicrous. [Aug 2012, p.77]- Uncut

What makes B&S great is conspicuous by its absence.... For completists only. [Jul 2002, p.101]- Uncut

Maximalists and circus ringmasters might enjoy it, but many will be scrabbling for the stop button. [May 2012, p67]- Uncut

The problem with The Weirdness is that it shoots its bolt immediately and has nothing left to offer. [Apr 2007, p.93]- Uncut

This is music that was manufactured to be played everywhere except those places to which people go when they want to hear music. [Oct 2008, p.105]- Uncut
