Pitchfork

EXIT 2B
The Miami duo’s electrifying, boundary-bending combination of Haitian kompa, underground rap, reggaeton, electro-pop, and baile funk is loud as hell and rich in egalitarian spirit.
Aethermead
Kevin Barnes’ 20th album is, once again, inspired by a breakup, but the drab music lacks the personality and vision of their best work.
The Professional
The American composer’s latest album of field recordings and fourth-wall slippage is an engrossing travelogue from the outskirts of experimental music.
Eyes Full
On their Matador debut, the improv musician re-emerges as a traditional singer-songwriter whose character-based narratives and alt-country stylings feel a touch too familiar.

The Needledrop

Kurt Vile - Philadelphia's been good to me
A very enjoyable album from Mr. Vile.
Paul McCartney - The Boys of Dungeon Lane
The Boys of Dungeon Lane is a late-career highlight for Macca.
Boards of Canada - Inferno
Inferno mostly stays in the decent-to-good range.
Iceage - For Love of Grace & the Hereafter
Iceage's best album since Plowing into the Field of Love.
