What makes BAYTL really frustrating is the fact that besides V-Nasty's appearances, the album has a chance to be excellent.- Prefix Magazine

While Lioness may not be the perfect Amy Winehouse album, it's all we have, which seems to be enough.- Prefix Magazine

Not to give the Belles short shrift (they play with skilled abandon), but the record sounds like White... straight-ahead crunching blues-based guitar hooks that sound as if they were ripped from Zeppelin II, staccato bursts of noise, oceans of feedback, driving back beats and howled vocals.- Prefix Magazine

Bestival offers the opportunity to take a tour of the band's long, fruitful career, stopping at each stylistic turn in their journey to take in the sonic scenery, but it also adds the freshness that only a live performance can bring.- Prefix Magazine

The bulk of El Camino keeps that approach fresh by twisting their rock sound into a pop sensibility that may feel nostalgic, but here--in this concentrated, potent dose--reveals itself to be just as eager to move forward as it is to revel in the past.- Prefix Magazine

Office Of Future Plans reveals itself as quite possibly one of the most brilliantly sequenced albums of 2011.- Prefix Magazine

There's still plenty to like about the insular production and engaging melodies of Wild One, but I can't help but think North Highlands have a lot more to offer that doesn't always show up here.- Prefix Magazine

Carrion Crawler/The Dream captures the band in psychedelic bulldozer mode instead, delivering ten blistering cuts at a furious pace.- Prefix Magazine

[Out of Boris' three albums released this year] New Album remains the victory lap, a cap to yet another year of successful experimentation.- Prefix Magazine

It's hard to view Radioactive in any context that doesn't label as it a total artistic failure, to see the totality of Yelawolf's rolling over to commercial demands as anything but truly disheartening.- Prefix Magazine

The fact that this debut hews closer to the Noel we know certainly shouldn't be a disappointment.- Prefix Magazine

He uses his angelic croon to beckon us to listen to him, sounding so damn desperate. Combine that with the rest of the band's driving, yet ambient build-ups and we have one of our most lovely and earnest records of 2011.- Prefix Magazine

There's no doubt of Sproule's ability on I Love You, Go Easy, both as a songwriter and musician, and her reservoir of talent is far from dry.- Prefix Magazine

Fuck Death, compelling as it is, never quite finds the same charged feeling of purpose [as Skin of Evil].- Prefix Magazine

We have an airy, understated collage that acts more as a stopgap teaser to keep the spotlight on the young lad from London, before something more cohesive and fully-realized can be recorded.- Prefix Magazine

Not necessarily a mix for ages, but a mix that's pretty easy to come back to, be it road-trips, background music, or a personal headphones-odyssey.- Prefix Magazine

Thankfully, their lovable debut has more of the former than the latter. They know the importance of consistency and pacing and are only left with the task of fine-tuning their band on the road.- Prefix Magazine

Hello Sadness offers the lumbering and deflated version of Los Campesinos!, hiding away their most alluring energy in favor of glum inactivity.- Prefix Magazine

CAMP is an imperfect album, to be sure, one that both succeeds on its incongruities and occasionally stumbles on them.- Prefix Magazine

Like many of the instrumentals on this record, a New Age gauze covers most of these productions. It may not be every listener's particular cup of tea, but An Album is a dazzling song suite for an autumnal release.- Prefix Magazine

Though he's still in the spotlight, only time will tell if these more brutal, free-jazz brass tendencies will alienate Stetson from the melody-seeking set.- Prefix Magazine

As a series of a mood pieces detailing the luxury lifestyle of hip-hop's one-percenters, Take Care is fairly captivating. As a portrait of the artist at the top of the mountain, however, it's pretty frustrating.- Prefix Magazine
