The songs on “Oh Wonder” are hauntingly beautiful, and the musical chemistry between the two is undeniable.
Jepsen has created a truly great pop record — one that moves quickly and vivaciously.
“Beauty Behind the Madness” is an impressive album, featuring powerful lyrics and diverse but unified sounds.
Though the overall tone of the album is unsettling, the music is incredibly original and captivating.
While the production of “Compton” is superb, the album proves to be largely forgettable.
“Glean” is ultimately more of the same from They Might Be Giants, a welcome yet unremarkable addition to its collection.
Passion Pit’s third album slides away from its roots and moves on to new, lyric-based songs, abandoning its signature style.
Southern rock band Alabama Shakes continues to demonstrate its ability to bring rock music from previous decades into the modern age.
“True Story” is a true crime drama that struggles to present itself and ultimately falls flat.
“Glitterbug” strays away from the previous album’s optimistic party lyrics with this pleasing, yet unremarkable album, using the long-distance metaphor as a lament of their lack of American fans.
Though the album is only nine songs long, each track has a different aspect to it that listeners will be able to understand and connect to emotionally.
In this marriage of form and content, an enjoyably mad cinematic experience is born.
