    Beck Hits a Sad, Beautiful New High on 'Ride Lonesome' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Beck’s first album in seven years is a sublime return to the somber folk-rock of career highpoints like 2002’s Sea Change and 2014’s Morning Phase. “You’ve got to cry a river,” he offers against the stately drift of the album opening title track, “Ride Lonesome.” Here the river of tears leads to an ocean of mellow gold. With its fragile acoustic melodies, desolate lyrics, and spare, subtle studio accompaniment, Ride Lonesome is like Nick Drake’s mumble-folk masterpiece Bryter Layter as the work

    Brandon Flowers Goes Country But Gets a Little Lost on the Back Roads (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Ever since Bob Dylan cut Nashville Skyline in 1969, rockers have been going to Music City to refresh their sounds, kick it with the world’s best session pros, and drink deep the rejuvenating well of local realness. For his third solo album, Killers frontman Brandon Flowers has gone all-in with a full-fledged country record. He says the music harkens back to his Utah youth listening to Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash (music his dad called “country Western”), and he’s hired some A-list hands to he

    Weezer's 20th Album Is Good as Gold (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Weezer have always had a thing for concept records, whether they’re imagining “the Beach Boys gone bad” (2017’s Pacific Daydream), doing a set of beloved old radio hits (2019’s The Teal Album), getting in touch with their quasi-sensitive side (2021’s OK Human) or paying tribute to the Eighties metal greats (that same year’s Van Weezer). For their 20th LP, technically self-titled but also known as The Gold Album, the concept is at once highly ironic and gloriously straightforward: a Weezer record

    Shaboozey Thinks Big on 'The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    On his third album, 2024’s Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going, and its monster hit, “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” Shaboozey is a cowboy for our times. The Virginia-raised Nigerian American artist is blessed with a cavernous baritone and a sense of music history where rap and country converse as equally elastic genres and equally deep traditions. It’s no surprise to hear him thinking big with his ambitious new concept album, The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales. According to Shaboozey, the LP

    The Strokes' 'Reality Awaits': Reality Bites a Little Too Hard (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Strokes’ stock is pretty high in 2026, definitely higher than it was in 2016, and maybe even 2006. This year marks the 25th anniversary of their classic debut, Is This It? Their recent tour, the band’s first in 20 years, saw them light up a multigenerational audience of young olds and old youngs. Their standing isn’t only based on nostalgia either: Though the last Strokes album, 2020’s The New Abnormal, got a little lost in the Covid malaise, its standout hit, “The Adults Are Talking,” has a
