Only By The Night Kings Of Leon Already on course to be one of the year's biggest sellers, Only By the Night has sealed Kings of Leon's unlikely position as Britain's favourite American rock band. The Followill brothers (and cousin) have always been tagged as part of a southern rock tradition of family bands such as the Allmans and Lynyrd Skynyrd, a label they vehemently refuted. But the skinny lads certainly looked like a...    Read More >>

Day & Age The Killers Success came fast for The Killers, maybe too fast. The impossibly hooky “Mr Brightside” from their debut, coupled with faultless synth anthem “Somebody Told Me”, turned them into the most ubiquitous band in the world overnight and had them batting away Glastonbury headline offers before the Hot Fuss campaign was even over. Sam's Town followed all too quickly, trying to stylistically...    Read More >>

A Hundred Million Suns Snow Patrol The Snow Patrol we meet on A Hundred Million Suns is a band facing the same dilemma that Coldplay met on 2008’s Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends; having conquered the world with a rousing, melancholy brand of MOR indie, where now? On the surface, A Hundred Million Suns seems to suggest, nowhere especially new: producer Jacknife Lee, who first worked with the band on...    Read More >>

Songs For You, Truths For Me James Morrison So he's the acoustic-troubadour-James that isn't James Blunt. He's the other one--the one that looks a little like Chris Martin from a distance and who with those two vague affiliations was surely always pre-destined to sell an awful lot of records, even if he was equally condemned to relative anonymity by turning up too late to claim credit for his own image. And if he failed on debut album Undiscovered...    Read More >>

Soul Seal Soul is a confusing beast. We know Seal has a great voice and can easily imagine him being covering golden oldies with aplomb. Yet this collection of soul favourites is frustratingly patchy. Opener "A Change Is Gonna Come" is impassioned and beautifully-arranged (the album is helmed by David Foster of Celebrity Duets fame, who has made sure it sounds fresh and compelling), and even though...    Read More >>

Spirit - The Deluxe Edition [CD+DVD] Leona Lewis First off, Leona lewis is someone I truly respect and admire. I supported her through the X Factor in 2006. From the moment she first performed on the live shows that year, it was obvious she had something special. Her raw vocal talent was and remains undoubted. As a person, you can tell the shy, humble and polite young lady we watched on tv was genuine. Today, after massive success worldwide, she...    Read More >>

I Am... Sasha Fierce [Deluxe Edition] [Bonus Tracks + Lyrics] Beyonce The latest outing from former Destiny's Child starlet Beyonce is an intentionally schizophrenic affair. Splitting herself into two separate characters--herself and alter ego Sasha Fierce--is the artist's way of presenting what she obviously sees as an artistic duality. The first set, I Am... is intended give a glimpse beneath the surface of her usual R&B-pop persona. Featuring recent single...    Read More >>

Perfect Symmetry Keane Would it be outlandish to suggest that wholesome rugby-shouldered ruddy-faced English piano-pop boys Keane have spent the best part of their two-album career fanning the impression that they exist somewhere between an easy Mothers’ Day gift and the album it’s ok to give your girlfriend back when you split up, just in order to blow everyone out of the water like 80s neon-pop commandos with the boldness...    Read More >>

Funhouse P!nk Whilst easily one of the most distinctive female pop vocalists of the last ten years, with her hot-headed persona and torching rock vocals barrelling through empowered songs both infectious and tender, P!nk did step back into line somewhat for more one-size-fits-all last album I’m Not Dead. Her voice aside, there was little pull her apart from her peers or to suggest she’d ever again go...    Read More >>

Decade In The Sun Stereophonics I love stereophonics, great band. This album hasn't got all the songs i would have liked, but when i went to see them live it didn't matter. Just looking, dakota and devil where my favourite songs live. If you love Stereophonics, you'll love this album :) Im addicted to this album now    Read More >>
