    ALBUM REVIEW: 'Believer' Is Angela Autumn’s Soundtrack for Self-Reinvention (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    “Fuck around and find out,” Angela Autumn implores on “In the South” off her new album Believer. But contrary to the sentiment, it isn’t an invitation to a brawl. It is coy and intriguing, an introduction to Autumn’s beguiling warble and the world she creates on Believer, one with plenty of room to be messy and, quite literally, fuck around and find out. As she plays and experiments with genre, treating pop and Appalachian folk and grungy guitar rock all with the same reverence, a new kind of so

    ALBUM REVIEW: Lily Seabird Searches for Honesty in the Ugliness on 'Lightspheres on Their Way' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    There is a fly-on-the-wall intimacy in certain moments of Lily Seabird’s third album, Lightspheres on Their Way, like watching someone quietly noodle before stumbling upon a profound golden thread, then following it to the end of the spool. Opening track “The Pulley” begins with barely a whisper of harmonium and a series of questions. “Is beauty the pulley? Your mind the weight?” she wonders. “Am I still allowed to pray even if I don’t believe anymore?” Seabird is in a constant state of seeking

    ALBUM REVIEW: Brennan Wedl Makes Room for the Mess (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Brennan Wedl has been making music for a long time, but it feels right that only now is she finally releasing a self-titled album. Her debut for ANTI-, Brennan Wedl, is an amalgamation of the sounds that have shaped her musical coming of age, consciously or not, but it’s also a defining set that demands attention, repeat listens, and cranked-up volume. Wedl sings like someone empowered to be unapologetically loud and take up the space she has long deserved, ideal for capturing the disenchantment

    ALBUM REVIEW: Phoebe Bridgers Makes Her Razor-Sharp Return With 'Lost Weekend' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Waiting six years between records when you’re at the height of your powers might be like shooting yourself in the foot, but not for Phoebe Bridgers, whose cultural presence somehow looms even larger since the release of Punisher all the way back in 2020. This is, in large part, thanks to acclaimed “supergroup” collaborations with Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus (boygenius) and indie rock godfather Conor Oberst (Better Oblivion Community Center), plus features on songs from pop juggernauts like MUNA,

    ALBUM REVIEW: The Family Plays Together and Stays Together on 'Delusions of Grandeur' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    What does it look like when the family business is music? In the case of The Family — a kind of “supergroup” made up of singer-songwriter Dylan LeBlanc and his father James LeBlanc, stepmother Angela Hacker, and stepbrother Bay Simpson — it’s a little messy. On the band’s first album, Delusions of Grandeur, they’re unpacking some of the baggage that splintered them apart and eventually brought them back together to FAME Studios in the LeBlancs’ native Muscle Shoals, Alabama in 2020 to record it.
