For nearly six decades, Neil Young’s music has told a story, delivered a message or searched for the truth. In his new album “Oceanside Countryside,” however, Young does not have much new to say. The album, released on Friday, is the latest in a string of releases by Young, who […]
Vulnerability and vibrant electronic pop music is what you’ll find on Rebecca Black’s newest album “SALVATION.” The seven song album was released independently on Feb. 27 following two stellar singles. The track “TRUST!” was the first taste fans received of Black’s new album. Released last October, “TRUST!” is a sultry […]
“No seriously, get your hands off my man” was my first impression of Tate McRae’s new album “So Close To What.” I couldn’t think of a more iconic line to open up with, as it not only set the tone for the entire album, but McRae sampled Sydney Sweeney’s voice […]
To the delight of indie folk music listeners everywhere, The Lumineers released their fifth studio album “Automatic” on Feb. 14. A Valentine’s Day gift from the beloved “Ho Hey” band, this album was a treat to listen to. The Lumineers have a very specific sound that I think most people […]
The windmill scene coming out of the United Kingdom has easily been the most significant movement in rock music in the past decade. Bands such as Black Midi, Fontaines D.C. and Black Country, New Road have put out some of the most creative and impactful albums of recent years. One […]
Popular Irish rock boyband Inhaler has released their highly anticipated third studio album, “Open Wide” on Friday, Feb. 7. Their album rollout began in late October, when the upbeat lead single “Your House” came out. Since then, three other songs have been pre-released: the title track “Open Wide” on Dec. […]
Sultry singer Nessa Barrett released “AFTERCARE DELUXE” on Feb.7, adding six more hits to the original 15-track album. Fans did not think that the original album — which came out on Nov. 15 — could get any better, but Barrett truly outdid herself. The first addition, “LOVE LOOKS PRETTY ON […]
Admittedly, I’ve had an up-and-down relationship with the music of Abel Tesfaye — known colloquially as The Weeknd — for years now. The Toronto native has produced hits on his recent studio albums “After Hours” and “Dawn FM,” including songs such as “Sacrifice,” “Blinding Lights,” “Save Your Tears” and “Take […]
I’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Drake for bringing Kendrick Lamar back into the game. Though Lamar did deliver us “Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers” in 2022, it wasn’t up to the quality we’ve come to expect from the 17-time Grammy winner. For a while there, […]
The album cover and, as such, the music of Yeat’s new album “2093” is evocative of your typical Batman-esque protagonist. This image is completed with moral ambiguity and neon lights cutting through smokestacks, careening off draping leather coats. Only Yeat isn’t so much the hero of this story. He’s somewhere […]
