Kacey Musgraves, Middle of Nowhere
Awash in twang and thick pedal steel, the country star’s seventh album explores the solitary no man’s land that exists between the ending of one relationship and the beginning of another.
Kneecap, Fenian
With bigger melodies and broader synth soundscapes, the rage-rave rap trio’s second LP takes an unexpected turn inward as they continue to take the politics of the world at large to task.
youbet, youbet
Penetratingly exact and proudly undefinable, Nick Llobet’s first album since expanding the project to a duo adds more definition to the sinewy, searching palette of their previous material.
