Album Reviews: Jane Weaver, Genesis Owusu, Bülow
Genesis Owusu — Smiling with No Teeth (Koforidua, Ghana/Canberra, Australia) For a visceral and often very danceable listen, Genesis Owusu offers you abrasive music with an inescapable catchiness. So many layered productions and a strong sense of how to guide a song forward keeps this album constantly exciting. "On the
Album Reviews: Denzel Curry, Anna B Savage, Katy Kirby
Anna B Savage — A Common Truth (London, U.K.) Whether from its emotional content or just the mood it carries in its instrumental bones, Anna B Savages latest release has a feeling that is best described as brutal. With overwhelming sweeps of harmony and a momentum of change, this is
Album Reviews: Paul McCartney, Taylor Swift, Kid Cudi

Album Reviews: July 31, 2017
Tyler, The Creator - Flower Boy (California) Pulling the hate out of his music and personal life has seemed to have had a cleansing affect on Tyler, The Creator. A much more sonically rich album than he's put out in some time, the album is much more lyrically dense as
