L’Rain, Fata Morgana
Taja Cheek’s complex fourth album pushes the boundaries of genre to create something shimmering and otherworldly.
Kiwi Jr., Blowin’ Up
On an emotionally explosive fourth album of catchy quips about crime scenes, the Toronto jangle-pop band shifts from light-hearted procedural stuff to grisly noir.
Phoebe Bridgers, Lost Weekend
Bridgers’ voice as a songwriter has only grown more resonant on her first solo LP in six years, characterized by a delicate dance of amorous love and crippling grief.
