The Los Angeles Issue
  Florence + the Machine, Everybody Scream
After recent big swings across the pop plate, Florence Welch’s gothic sixth album gets cerebral and probing as the songwriter proves herself to be more in touch with her emotions.
  Chat Pile & Hayden Pedigo, In the Earth Again

  Soft Cell, The Art of Falling Apart [Super Deluxe Edition]
This six-disc collection expands upon the aggression, industrialism, and pernicious lyrics of the duo’s 1983 LP—a revenge, of sorts, on becoming pin-up darlings of the British new wave.
