Reviews
Here’s where I post all of my album reviews.
Fresh Tunes
All my thoughts on the new releases I’ve been getting my teeth into.
- Everyone’s an it girl on Brat.
- On their fourth album, Mannequin Pussy achieve true, genuine catharsis via guitars.
- Detach the hype of ‘Prelude To Ecstasy’ and enjoy The Last Dinner Party for who they are.
- On ‘That! Feels Good!’, Jessie Ware demands that you seek pleasure in your life.
- ‘Ocean Blvd’ takes the world of Lana Del Rey to previously unimaginable territory.
- On ‘Desire’, Polachek wants to show you all the cool sounds she’s found.
Oldies
If it ain’t fresh off the press and I’m in the mood to talk about it, you’ll find it here.
- Loveless turns 30: How My Bloody Valentine turned guitars into emotions
- Frank Ocean’s Blonde: Five Years On
- Stop Making Sense by Talking Heads: Fusing Theatre, Music and Film
- Suede: Bisexuality in Britpop (and what it means to be bi)
- Skrillex: Riding the nostalgia train.
- R.E.M.: The Best Band To Listen To Alone
