A fearless experimenter, Alex G has mastered the art of album-crafting
Frame and Mantle // Lost Under Nighttime Sky
by Nick Warren
9/11/2019, 12:30 PM
Fanfare for the post-emo, in the Aaron Copland sense
BROCKHAMPTON // GINGER
by Aaron Mook

The calm after a storm, following the band's uncertain start
Ezra Furman // Twelve Nudes
by Nick Warren

A jaunty bell of energy that flies by in 27 minutes while tackling big topics with memorable melodies
Whitney // Forever Turned Around
by Aaron Mook
9/11/2019, 9:15 AM
Longing heartbreak lives throughout the record with musical moments that must be heard to be believed

This sailor drowns in the sound of imitation
The Murder Capital // When I Have Fears

Clairo // Immunity
by Aaron Mook
8/14/2019, 12:45 PM
Where her music was once marked by it's quirky lo-fi aesthetic, it now rests comfortably in the realm of tastefully polished soft rock and R&B.
Chance the Rapper // The Big Day
by Aaron Mook
8/14/2019, 12:30 PM
So despite its fair share of successes, why does his "debut studio album," as he so passionately refers to it, arrive with an air of disappointment?
Bon Iver // i,i
by Nick Warren
8/14/2019, 12:15 PM
The sounds contained in i,i are so effective they're almost emotionally manipulative.
Marika Hackman // Any Human Friend
by Nick Warren
8/14/2019, 12:00 PM
Combing through late '80s new wave synth and '90s-flavored indie, she winds up with her own brand of groovy angst.
