Bloody Gooz Album
It has been sooooo long since I last got a CD. And oh how I have missed it! To my fellow 90s peeps: lyric booklets with art!!!!
I know, you can just Google the words, or watch a lyric version on YouTube, but this is different. Nostalgic. Plus, the art is wonderful. The colour and style is great, works well with the tone of the album and has a great simplicity to it.
Anyway, on to the music. I avoided Ed Sheeran at first, never one to hop on the hype train. But Toot Toot, thus guy does not dissapoint, and this album is no exception.
A great mix of up-beatand catchy songs, with some deep heart breakers to balance it out. It has something for all moods. Listen to it, then go back and listen again. There is wit and tenderness in his words that you do not see too often these days, and in a world of mainstream multiples, this album equals a little bit of diversity. From balards to rap, is there nothing he can't do?
Thanks Ed, and thanks @Smashbomb for my treat xxx
  
Singer Diana Krall's 13th album, Turn Up the Quiet, is one of the Observer's early favourites for the year's best jazz records. And there are some surprising turnouts from the Rolling Stones to Iggy Pop. A total mixed jazz bag this year:

From the coolest member of the Rolling Stones to a punk icon trying on his Sinatra fedora to a former bartender who mixes sounds through her trumpet, jazz music is anything if not diverse.

No really, just listen to this album and hear what Annie is saying. She is a powerful, modern artist who can comment on society with a confidence and vulnerability that few have today.

"Bangerz" is neither the best nor worst pop album released this year, but it's inarguably the most fiercely individual.
Critic- Jason Lipshutz

The Pixies at their pinnacle
'Debaser', and 'Monkey Gone To Heaven' lead the album but every track is create-worthy
Kim Deal's bass work (and backing vox) stays in your head for days
Imperious, explosive, and brilliant

2016 | Rhythm And Blues, Singer-Songwriter
Drake's fourth proper album feels claustrophobic and too long and weirdly monotone, but the occasional tweaks in sound lead to a few great moments.
Critic- Ryan Dombal
Original Score: 6.8 out of 10
