  1. 8.0 |   The Skinny

    Rose Windows demonstrate that, in the right hands, it’s still possible to conjure new life with the tools of classic rock

  2. 8.0 |   The Quietus

    Their archaic poetry sometimes misses the mark, but the vivaciousness of it all, and its innocence, is often remarkable

  3. 8.0 |   Uncut

    Marks out Rose Windows as promising contenders on the psych-rock block. Print edition only

  4. 7.0 |   All Music

    A rewardingly trippy listening experience
    Read Review

  5. 5.0 |   PopMatters

    For all the skill on display here, the album as a whole feels ponderous, weighted down by the more self-important tendencies of classic stoner rock

David Byrne  Who Is The Sky

The artist’s new album of bright, bustling pop is positioned as a celebration of reasons to be cheerful. Often its fountain of optimism feels like a firehose of forced positivity Pitchfork

Ed Sheeran  Play

On the enjoyably moreish Play, the ‘culturally Irish’ star sounds as if he’s back on form. Although we’ve only had time for a quick listen The Irish Times

Baxter Dury  Allbarone

This record plays like his shot for glory, and with tracks as hooky and well-constructed as "Mockingjay" or the title track, there's no reason he shouldn't hit the big time All Music
