Reviews

Sudan Archives, The BPM
Brittney Parks’ inventive third album channels the electronic musical lineage of Chicago and Detroit by combining house, techno, and footwork with broader sounds like hyperpop and IDM.
The Last Dinner Party, From the Pyre
The Londoners’ second LP doubles down on the ’70s pomp for another ornate, big-budget collection of orchestral glam rock that, despite its flair, doesn’t leave a lasting impression.
John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant’s Memory, Power to the People: The Ultimate Collection
Produced by Sean Ono Lennon, this nine-CD, three-Blu-ray set ties together his parents’ raw, grimy Some Time in New York City LP with a pair of shows at Madison Square Garden.
