Any decent music? We review the reviews. You get the final word

Arab Strap  I'm totally fine with it don't give a fuck anymore

Here on their new album, nothing is concealed—that feeling of bitter acceptance isn’t just part of I’m totally fine with it; it’s the beating heart of what makes the album so compelling Spectrum Culture

Kamasi Washington  Fearless Movement

Flaws aside, if Fearless Movement makes even one layman pick up one of Washington’s bigger, better albums, it’ll be completely worth it Spectrum Culture

Sia  Reasonable Woman

A frustrating, calculated mishmash of pop powerhouses, balladry and dance music, but are either underdeveloped, overdeveloped, or just plain bad Sputnik Music (staff)

Kamasi Washington  Fearless Movement

Another worthy statement from one of the most important musicians of our time, and a convincing announcement that there is still a terrifying amount of creativity to be discovered within the bandleader’s extravagant afro Sputnik Music (staff)

Kings Of Leon  Can We Please Have Fun

The family band sound their best in years on a punchy new album of beachside Southern rock Paste Magazine

Arab Strap  I'm totally fine with it don't give a fuck anymore

The songwriting is unique but lacks anything of note, and the production, as usual, does not keep up well with all of this Northern Transmissions

Inspiring and invigorating Beats Per Minute

Sia  Reasonable Woman

She enlists help from guest artists and DJs to encapsulate the past six years – but there’s no innovation or originality Beats Per Minute

Jessica Pratt  Here In The Pitch

Here In The Pitch is a staggering work that represents a high point in an artist’s career, and, even more, it pulls off some of the most unique pieces of music that feel impossible to replicate Northern Transmissions

Iron & Wine  Light Verse

Sdee review link XS Noize

Dua Lipa  Radical Optimism

The English-Albanian pop superstar’s follow-up to Future Nostalgia lacks color, edge and instinct, as its 11 songs get lost beneath Kevin Parker and Danny L Harle’s psychedelic dependencies Paste Magazine

Hana Vu  Romanticism

Even if the record’s themes or lyrics play as a touch dramatic, Vu makes it easy to get swept up in the melodrama of each ascendant harmony and pounding guitar chord, seizing on the time when each swirl of emotion felt new and potent Under The Radar
