Blur, The Great Escape [30th Anniversary Edition]
Packed with era-appropriate B-sides, this release celebrates the Britpop quartet in their last gasp of opulent orchestration as they moved into lonely disillusionment and reserved distance.
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Live God
This concert album is a striking time capsule of a veteran rock group in complete control as a unit during their recent global tour, cutting stadium bombast with a gospel reverence.
Depeche Mode, Memento Mori: Mexico City
The live album tied to the new-wave icons’ new concert film shows how a lifelong band persists through loss while maturing their dusky music and a deep connection to their audience.
