Album Review: Bob Dylan - Together Through Life April 28, 2009 It's nice to see Bob continuing to deliver the goods late in the game. "Together Through Life" is a worthy addition to his already monumental body of work.
Album Review: Art Brut - Art Brut vs. Satan April 21, 2009 Eddie Argos and the gang are back with Art Brut's third album, "Art Brut vs. Satan."
Album Review: Depeche Mode - Sounds of the Universe April 20, 2009 "Sounds Of The Universe" is the 12th studio album from synth pioneers Depeche Mode -- their best since 1990's "Violator."
Album Review: Metric - Fantasies April 7, 2009 Metric holds a soft spot in my heart next to beer and grilled cheese sandwiches -- all things that I never get sick of.
Album Review: Gomez - A New Tide March 28, 2009 I found "A New Tide" to be a pleasant listen. Who's to say they should be writing songs according to industry expectations?
Album Review: The Decemberists - The Hazards of Love March 24, 2009 "The Hazards of Love" is a strange concoction brewed from Colin Meloy's obsession with the British folk revival of the 1960s. It's as if the archetypes and themes of those folk songs were sucked up by an F5 twister (Meloy) and dropped into a foreign landscape: the rock opera.
Album Review: Yeah Yeah Yeahs - It's Blitz March 9, 2009 New wave, rock, punk, danceable. All words that can be used to describe "It's Blitz!" -- the new record by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
Album Review: Neko Case - Middle Cyclone March 3, 2009 Neko's fifth studio album in 12 years, Middle Cyclone, is a timeless and genreless collage of sounds and styles.
Album Review: U2 - No Line on the Horizon February 27, 2009 "No Line on the Horizon" may not be as immediately captivating as some of U2's other albums, but it is still a thoughtful and challenging addition their catalog.
Album Review: Morrissey - Years of Refusal February 16, 2009 While it's doubtful that this far into his career Morrissey is going to win over oogles of new converts, if you've been there in the past, you're probably gonna like "Years of Refusal" -- one of Morrissey's best solo outings to date.
