REVIEW: Wire – ‘Silver/Lead’ (pinkflag)

Post-punk legends Wire’s 16th album ‘Silver/Lead’, their third in as many years, puts many of today’s guitar groups to shame.

REVIEW: Jamiroquai – ‘Automaton’ (Virgin EMI)

Jay Kay and Jamiroquai have been away for seven years, but absolutely nothing has changed on their eighth album.

REVIEW: Soulwax – ‘FROM DEEWEE’ (P.I.A.S.)

The Dewaele brothers deliver the first proper Soulwax album in 13 years, and while their sound may now be a little dated, it’s still thrilling.

REVIEW: GoldLink – ‘At What Cost’ (RCA)

After two acclaimed mixtapes, GoldLink makes his major label debut with the solidly enjoyable ‘At What Cost’.

REVIEW: Anohni – ‘Paradise’ EP (Rough Trade)

A companion piece to ANOHNI’s ‘Hopelessness’ album last year, ‘Paradise’ is thought-provoking, politically relevant and musically exhilarating.
