Arlo Parks Collapsed in Sunbeams (Deluxe) Transgressive Records · January 29, 2021 Arlo Parks’ premier album Collapsed in Sunbeams (Deluxe) delivers a call to serenity as compelling as the late-night stoned urge to make a grilled cheese. In the two-part deluxe release, she melts an hour of poetry and song into an empathetic moment of […]
Sam Hunt Southside Universal Music Group Nashville · April 3, 2020 Much like attending class, Sam Hunt’s album is better in retrospect. Five years after his debut album Montevallo captivated a bored country music fan base, Hunt delivers Southside with 12 country-fusion tracks fit for radio. Country fans will welcome Sam Hunt’s familiar sound and […]
The Highwomen have presented country music with a chance to change for the better instead of blend into oblivion. What constitutes a good country song? The bar seems to be getting lower and lower. Earlier this year, Blake Shelton’s “God’s Country” dominated the charts upon its release. However, the song itself delivers no claims or […]

As the digital streaming age becomes more profitable for artists, many […]
Ice Cube Everythang’s Corrupt Interscope Records · December 7, 2018 Despite the antiquated production style, Ice Cube gets his point across through emotional, simple, easy-to-remember lyrics. Fame is a high that few artists are equipped to leave behind. But some don’t have to. Whether or not it is better for the music world; Bruce Springsteen, Neil […]
Joey Dosik featuring Peter Wise October 14, 2018 at Great Scott On a rainy night in Allston, Joey Dosik managed to fuse basketball, inside voices, and Marvin Gaye for one of this year’s highlight performances. On a night littered with rainstorms, the constant malaise of a greyed out sky felt almost inescapable. The mood was […]
Florence + The Machine High as Hope Universal Music / Republic Records · June 29, 2018 Many will appreciate Florence + The Machine’s newest album, High as Hope, though very few of those people will be new fans.
