album
-
-
The Path of the Clouds is easily Marissa Nadler’s most instrumentally dense solo project to date, which is mostly a blessing.
-
The War on Drugs’ heartland rock sound is more direct than ever on I Don’t Live Here Anymore, with Granduciel’s vocals and writing not always up to the task.
-
While a lot more impressive than the preceding Emperor of Sand, Hushed and Grim does buckle under its own weight.
-
Not as bad as the collaborations album, albeit not by much.
-
-
It’s nice to hear Parquet Courts go in some different directions on Sympathy for Life, but the successes are more or less in the spots that most resemble the previous Wide Awake.
-
Blue Banisters sounds more slapped together than Lana’s past two LPs.
-
-
Deep States is TFS’s weakest batch of songs yet, which is to say it’s not that bad.
