9 Review: The Avalanches – Wildflower (XL Recordings) Pelican18 July 2016 "It is an audaciously cinematic soundtrack fitting nothing in particular; but its sweeping synaesthetic kaleidoscopes can crop up your deepest, unrealest teenage dream-memories." Harry Manson reviews Wildflower, The Avalanches' first album in sixteen years. Music0 Comments17 views
9 Review: Swans – The Glowing Man (Young God) Pelican22 June 2016 "It’s here, this is it, the grand finale, the last hurrah for Michael Gira and the gang, the swansong of it all (pun intended), and it couldn’t possibly get better than this." Eamonn Kelly reviews. Music0 Comments45 views
6.5 Review: Drake – Views from the 6 (Young Money Entertainment) Pelican15 June 2016 "Whilst a handful of these tracks are susceptible to instant-skipping and the release will hardly thrill bandwagon fans of ‘Jumpman’ or ‘Hotline Bling’, it’s an obvious must for fans of his earlier work." Michael O'Leary reviews. Music0 Comments12 views
2 Review: Weezer – The White Album (Crush Music) Pelican3 June 2016 "In this track Weezer are caricatures of a group of dads sitting in a room with a whiteboard brainstorming what the kids are into these days." Eamonn Kelly reviews. Music0 Comments29 views
7 Review: Parquet Courts – Human Performance (Rough Trade) Pelican3 June 2016 "In finally cleaning up and colourising their previously dry sepia sound, the instrumental sounds and cues occasionally become so directly referential to very particular music that it starts feeling like a joke." Harry Manson reviews. Music0 Comments19 views
8 Review: Deakin – Sleep Cycle (My Animal Home) Pelican3 June 2016 "Listening to this album, you might get a sense of Deakin as a pathological procrastinator, or manic-depressive, or else afflicted by some other variety of creative paralysis to have spent six years making an album that feels largely incomplete." Nick Morlet reviews Sleep Cycle. Music0 Comments15 views
8 Review: Brian Eno – The Ship (Warp Records) Pelican21 May 2016 Brian Eno has managed to craft a sophisticated, but still extremely enjoyable album. It’s probably not great music to work out to, though. Hugh Hutchison reviews. Music0 Comments17 views
8 REVIEW: JAMES BLAKE – THE COLOUR IN ANYTHING (POLYDOR) Pelican21 May 2016 The tone of Colour is much more warm and romantic than the introspective Overgrown, with plenty of songs referencing relationships and affection as opposed to Blake’s own experiences as a musician. Bridget Rumball reviews. Music0 Comments8 views
9 Review: Beyoncé – Lemonade (Columbia) Pelican21 May 2016 The album is a brutally honest look into Beyoncé’s womanhood, her blackness and the intersection between the two. It is quite arguably her magnum opus; a career defining work of art which offers a jarring and oftentimes uncomfortable look into Beyoncé’s marriage and her experiences as a black woman.
