Tenderfist: Tourist Car
Tenderfist sounds better than ever now, just when we thought they were in a ‘This Wasted Heart’ stasis, the boys toured Europe and came back with a promising debut.
How to Dress Well: Total Loss
How to Dress Well’s sophomore improves upon debut album without repeating its mistakes.
Flying Lotus: Until the Quiet Comes
Until the Quiet Comes is just as impressive as sophomore Los Angeles and better than the previous record Cosmogramma and debut 1983.
Yeasayer: Fragrant World
Fragrant World is that transitory album where a band disengages the past from their future.
The xx: Coexist
The sparse melancholia of Coexist continues the sound The xx established with their first album to great effect.
Passion Pit: Gossamer
Passion Pit’s follow-up to debut Manners is the band going bigger, more self-indulgent, but this only serves frontman Michael Angelakos’ pop acumen better.
Citizens of Ice-Cream: Days of Bays
Whether intentional or not, CoIC’s childlike (and we don’t mean childish) approach to writing their music gives the instrumental band their charm. There are no pretentious efforts or need for a goreng moment to prove their skills on their respective instruments.
Purity Ring: Shrines
Find Cronenbergian body horror hidden underneath Purity Ring’s earthy vocals, Southern rap-influenced beats, and Dilla-esque synths.
Eternal Summers: Correct Behavior
Eternal Summers corrected their behaviour with latest LP and succeeded.
