Friko, Something Worth Waiting For
With their second album, the Chicago band sheds their tough noise-pop exterior to reveal a more delicate sound—and emotional truisms to match—as they grow more confident.
Beastie Boys, To the 5 Boroughs [Deluxe Edition]
A sparer sound backing sociopolitical ruminations on their hometown post-9/11 defines the rap trio’s sixth LP then and now, in its extended, era-intensive three-LP version.
Foo Fighters, Your Favorite Toy
Dave Grohl focuses on the objects in life that keep us grounded when times are just plain weird on the band’s 12th LP, which is less a total reinvention than a vital recalibration.
