Album Reviews

Film School : Film School

…or the Robert Smith School of Rock.

Tortoise and Bonnie : The Brave and The Bold

A “brave” album of “bold” covers, with a Chicago indie twist.

Robert Pollard : From a Compound Eye

Uncle Bob’s double-wide rock ‘n’ roll ride.

Headquarters : Get Your Head On

No politics or social statement, just classic power pop.

Clearlake : Amber

Third album by UK band takes it louder, crisper and more complex.

Liz Durrett : The Mezzanine

Southern comfort in musical form.

Mass : Labour of Love

A frightening discovery.

Sam Champion : Slow Rewind

Warm and familiar but rockin’ all the same.
