The Dodos Time To Die
The Dodos follow up last year's mini-triumph with a slick disappointment.
Brett Oronzio reviews...Bowerbirds Upper Air
Weary from all the dense freak folk? This is a much lighter affair in the upper air.
Alan Shulman reviews...Eels Hombre Lobo
Eels first album of new material since 2005's brilliant Blinking Lights and Other Revelations. How does it measure up?
Brett Oronzio reviews...Frightened Rabbit Liver! Lung! FR! (Live)
A middling live replication of their latest album, but why?
Brett Oronzio wonders...Clue to Kalo Lily Perdida
Lily Perdida, Mark Mitchell's newest psuedo-concept album, paints a picture of Lily using ten different brushes. The result is an engaging, if not befuddling, character profile of the album's titular heroine.
Andy Stewart scratches his head in wonder...Various Artists Dark Was The Night
An album to make the indie kids wet their pants.
Cara Nash reviews...Phosphorescent To Willie
On To Willie, Phosphorescent sends a love letter to the American Outlaw himself Willie Nelson and proves that cover albums don't always have to suck.
Andy Stewart listens to new old songs...Bon Iver Blood Bank
Melancholy gives way to shades of optimism as Bon Iver delicately expands his sound on his new EP, while retaining a sense that these songs were created in a time forever ago.
Apart from a subjective opening paragraph, Cara Nash reviews objectively…Pale Young Gentlemen Black Forest (Tra La La)
PYG's second album retains the off-kilter indie sound of its debut, but the band's sound is much richer now; alongside the distinctive cello, we are treated to violins, violas, glockenspiels, harps and horns.
David Coleman reviews...The Cave Singers Invitation Songs
Another exercise in the ever-growing genre of indie-folk holds its own.
