The results are hardly raw skiffle, more sophisto-shimmery roots. Best on Fleetwood Mac-ish Butter Flutter but over-long and mawkish (SOS, for Syria). [Dec 2017, p.96]- Mojo

This album is partisan, powerful and controversial. [Dec 2017, p.87]- Mojo

Although the album's emphasis is on electronica--some of which is distinctly Balearic--these characteristically hymnal songs suggest fluid boundaries between each entity. [Dec 2017, p.90]- Mojo

It hold together, though--a quiet coalition, but one that is wholly satisfying. [Dec 2017, p.89]- Mojo

Stereophonics jab at the same buttons that previously scored them six number 1s without breaking the mould. [Dec 2017, p.86]- Mojo

A bewitching brew of experimental jazz, droning electronics and raw, progressive rock. [Dec 2017, p.87]- Mojo

It's easy to see why those indie luminaries were so deeply seduced by Acetone's languid and ever-so lovely drawing together of Doug Yule-era Velvets, Spiritualized and Low. [Oct 2017, p.106]- Mojo

Side by side in this unfamiliar setting, well-known songs become unsettling. [Oct 2017, p.104]- Mojo

This excellent new record encapsulates Pine's eclecticism with its amalgam of cool jazz and sultry R&B flavours. [Nov 2017, p.101]- Mojo

Vince Mendoza's symphonic orchestral arrangements ooze romantic grandeur, combined with Porter's magnificently soulful vocals, resulting in a thrillingly transcendent experience. [Dec 2017, p.93]- Mojo

Its raw, emotional heartbeat is laid bare at the onset. [Dec 2017, p.94]- Mojo

For the most part, this is another absorbing chapter in Schott's one-woman sonic odyssey, and where her protean creative compass will take her next is intriguing. [Nov 2017, p.99]- Mojo

[The Long-Awaited Album exudes] humour on such tracks as Caroline and Strangest Christmas Yet. Martin also offers a touch of romance with All Night Long and delivers a chunk of heads-down speedgrass with instrumental Office supplies. [Dec 2017, p.87]- Mojo

One senses New Shapes Of Life will probably mean less to the world at large than it clearly does to its author, but it has moments of intense beauty. [Dec 2017, p.86]- Mojo

Legendary US photographer employs Korg synths, piano on Home-recorded improvs and covers. [Dec 2017, p.96]- Mojo

It's no instant hit, but some cracking songs like Moths In The Gas Light and Dancing In The Ruin rise to the top and a brilliantly vivid production keeps you riveted. [Dec 2017, p.90]- Mojo

From the title track onwards, he slaps down 25 minutes of spring-heeled and rump-shakin' bumpin' Bootsy funk, which will pick up again after ballad Heaven Yes, gentler Ladies Nite, and the poppy Candy Coated Lover and Snow Bunny. [Dec 2017, p.93]- Mojo

Equally comparable to Sleaford Mods' savage lo-fi and Leonard Cohen's fatalist poetry, Prince Of Tears is an outright triumph. [Nov 2017, p.94]- Mojo

Occasionally, the strings seem like an afterthought to a seemingly traditional Malian griot set-up, but the majestic title track demonstrates the power of the pairing. [Dec 2017, p.89]- Mojo

Souleyman's high velocity dabke-techno hybrid keeps the BPM and bleep count high on his third LP. [Dec 2017, p.96]- Mojo

While their writhing, panic-driven noise never fails to excite, sustained across an entire album it makes for an enervating, overwhelming listen, and its hard to discern what substance might lie beneath their bristling, steely carapace. [Dec 2017, p.94]- Mojo

Wolfe is the epicentre of the maelstrom, a banshee wailing through songs called things like Welt and Scrape. [Dec 2017, p.94]- Mojo

There are some sumptuous moments, but it's also arch and mannered, and rather awkward to embrace. [Dec 2017, p.93]- Mojo

The Beloved Scouse songsmith's virtues are writ large: heart swelling hymns to the common man, irrepressible shanties, imaginatively deployed strings and brass, affectionate songs of booze-love, as unhinged a school-days memoir as you'll ever hear, and, at the closing Adios Amigo, the fondest of farewells. [Dec 2017, p.92]- Mojo
