New Reviews for September 13, 2024
Ninja Tune
Sam Shepherd focuses on his club side with a marvelous album of tightly engineered yet exploratory and psychedelic dance tracks.
- Paul Simpson
Yep Roc
A little bit more rocking and a little bit less croony, the album features the legendary singer/songwriter in lively collaboration with Los Straitjackets.
- Tim Sendra
Polydor / Republic
The Scottish group's eighth set and another late-era treasure trove that highlights emotional catharsis and introspection.
- Neil Z. Yeung
Sub Pop
A dramatic, double-length sophomore LP that puts the musician/actress in the company of artists like Lana Del Rey and Angel Olsen.
- Marcy Donelson
City Slang
The band add tightly wound soul music influences to their well-established mix, sounding as dramatic and emotionally impactful as ever.
- Tim Sendra
Domino
Fostered by Aaron Maine recording outside of his apartment for the first time, the project's grungy sixth LP is his loudest, most volatile yet.
- Marcy Donelson
Ninja Tune
Cutting down on collaborators but retaining an artful palette, the songwriter/producer's third album is an alluringly intimate and enigmatic outing.
- Marcy Donelson
Ghostly International
Cameron Lew's eclectic art-funk-city pop project stages a concept LP about a TV music supervisor in 1987 for his most ebullient effort to date.

Editors' Choice for August, 2024
AllMusic Staff Pick - September 17, 2024
1959
The single most influential album of Western songs in post-World War II American music, Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs (released 75 years ago this month) touched a whole range of unexpected bases in its own time and has endured extraordinarily well across the ensuing decades.
