Reviews
See All 
Harry Styles, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.
The sequel to the 2022 Album of the Year GRAMMY winner is another radical genre shape-shift for a pop star who refuses to settle for just another EDM album.
Scout Gillett, Tough Touch
Expanding her palette with grungy new influences, the LA-via-Kansas-City songwriter’s second album is often higher-octane while retaining her debut’s emotional core.
Mirah, Dedication
Gently playful with a fire burning underneath, the artist’s first record in seven years signifies her devotion to the craft of making music, whether the light in her career is burning bright or dim.
