New Reviews for November 15, 2024

St. Vincent / Virgin

The Spanish-language reinterpretation of All Born Screaming gains new shades of meaning and gives a fresh perspective on its songs.

- Heather Phares

Thirty Tigers / Via

A bang-up set of 21st century honky tonk and heartfelt love songs, including a solid duet with Post Malone.

- Mark Deming

Verve

The New Orleans pianist draws playful inspiration from the German composer.

- Matt Collar

Daemon T.V.

The resolutely independent artist's fourth album is a musically inventive, emotionally direct, razor-sharp triumph.

- Heather Phares

New West

Elvis Costello and T-Bone Burnett team up for a spontaneous, eclectic, and frequently witty song score.

Editors' Choice for October, 2024

AllMusic Staff Pick - November 17, 2024

March 7, 1994

Aphex Twin's second album might seem impenetrable on the surface, being a double (now triple) CD of sprawling ambient pieces with no printed track titles, but it contains some of his most flat-out beautiful compositions, and has more personality than you might expect. The 30th anniversary reissue restores the tracks that weren't on the U.S. CD editions before (most notably the life-changing "#19," aka "Stone in Focus") plus some unreleased tracks, including an orchestral version of the sorrowful "Rhubarb" dedicated to Richard D. James' late parents.
