Soko and Ariel Pink are sounding like the Human League, Mumford
and Sons are sounding like Coldplay and M.I.A. is sounding like PSY. It’s equal
parts smiles, equal parts frowns this week.
“A collection of profound and epic album reviews and musical articles by former astronaut and brain surgeon, Alasdair Kennedy. Reaching levels of poetry that rival Keats and Blake, the following reviews affirm Alasdair to be a prodigy, a genius and a god whose opinion is always objectively right. He is also without a doubt the most modest man in the universe.” - Alasdair Kennedy

Review of 'Dark Sky Paradise' by Big Sean
‘Baby, I want you to
take me serious’ is the hook on the fifth track of this album, which

Review of 'Rose Mountain' by Screaming Females
New Jersey punk trio, Screaming Females, are priviledged to
have such a badass vocalist. Whilst I wouldn’t go so far as to call her style
‘screaming’ as the band name suggests, it’s definitely a step up in intensity
from your usual average rock chick vocals - a kind of manic, blood-pumping wail
of sorts more similar to Siouxsie Sioux or that dude from Glassjaw (forgive me
if I’m just listing off random names. It’s how us music bloggers work).

Congratulations. You all survived the winter. Now we’ve
entered Spring, the season of rebirth. The leaves and the bees and wild Kanyes are
all re-emerging and everyone’s happy and frolicking in the streets because 2015’s
going to be the best year since 2014. I CAN JUST FEEL IT.
Anyway, here are the best and worst tracks of the week.
