Rating - 3/5 Always divisive, yet unquestionably talented and progenitor of some of the most iconic music that helped to shape the contemporary British scene; Morrisey returns with his thirteenth solo effort ‘I Am Not on a Dog on a Chain’.

Rating - 4/5 ‘The New Abnormal’ is the culmination of recording sessions stretching back to 2016 featuring production from heavyweight Rick Rubin. It’s a collection of stripped back, mature-sounding tracks that show The Strokes have mellowed significantly, but like a glass of fine wine has aged well; Rubin’s characteristic production complements the simplicity and tranquility...

Rating - 1/5 Primo and all-female Australian rock bring us their latest single “Machine” from the upcoming second album “Sogni”. It has an unusual approach with the band members harmonizing together to sing the lyrics. This gives the vocals a kind of monotonous droning whine which I guess fits with the machine vibe but it...
