Beyoncé, B’Day [20th Anniversary Edition]
Along with remastering its original mix to bring out the disc’s vibrantly wild percussion, there’s a warmth to this celebratory touch-up of the pop star’s second solo LP that was forever missing.
Diary, Spiral Bound
The Brooklyn-based jangle-pop quintet’s aptly diaristic debut takes the form of a novella, as each track seems to correspond with a particular time in the wee hours of the morning.
Sleep, Hemispheres
Touching back down from the depths of smoke-space to release their first album in eight years, the newly reconfigured stoner-metal titans offer myriad psychedelic delights.
Ian Thomas
Powered by catchy melodies, memorable hooks, and shimmering harmonies.
“Beyondless” dwells in the moments when attraction and repulsion are equally felt.
Joining the cult of the video collective, which mines thrift stores, swap meets, and other troves of obsolete media in search of the rare, obscure, and weird.
Cate Le Bon and Tim Presley make much with little.
On “Record,” Tracey Thorn exudes confidence in every utterance, and that self-assurance is bolstered by the brevity of the songs.
