The Hives, The Hives Forever Forever The Hives
The Swedish garage-rockers’ seventh album feels lean and mean from the jump, with their lovable braggadocio bursting at the seams on what feels like another fiery debut.
Margo Price, Hard Headed Woman
For every tender moment on the country artist’s fifth album there’s one of wind-blow abandon, a yin and yang that complements her split allegiance to the genre’s rich history and the present day.
Wolf Alice, The Clearing
A ’70s-inspired yet undeniably timeless pop-rock record, the London quartet’s major-label debut marks a refreshing return to serenely emotional balladry.
