Stop Laughing: A Difference of Laughter Between British and American Hitchcock
While Alfred Hitchcock is famous for the humor that he injected into his thrillers, there are striking differences in the humor between his British and American periods.
Benjamin Aspray
Föllakzoid: III
From moment to moment, III has trouble distinguishing itself.
Andy Stott: Faith in Strangers
With an astonishing lead single and an enveloping album besides, the Manchester producer offers the most vivid expression of his ghostly, brooding vision yet.
Run the Jewels: Run the Jewels 2
A bluesy howl of addictive beats, political fury, and hypnotic technique, the sequel to Run the Jewels' triumphant debut bests the original in every way.
Aphex Twin: Syro
Unburdened of revolutionary duties, Syro offers a deeply rewarding expression of one of electronic music's most dependably brilliant talents.
J Mascis: Tied to a Star
On his latest, deceptively quiet solo outing, legendary Dinosaur Jr. frontman J Mascis wisely lets his guitar do the talking.
Basement Jaxx: Junto
The UK progressive house duo is in transition on their latest full-length.
Common: Nobody’s Smiling
The veteran Chicago rapper returns to his troubled hometown on a conscious album for a post-conscious age.
Chromeo: White Women
The Quebecois electro-funk duo's fourth full-length is impossibly catchy, shamelessly referential, sonically lavish, and if lyrically underwhelming, still distinguished by flashes of wordplay and wit.
