Enya - A Day Without Rain (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by William Ruhlmann @ allmusi.com
Enya's first full-length album of new material in five years (and her fourth in 12 years) will have a familiar sound to the millions who have followed her career so far. As usual, the slow songs sound like "Silent Night" being performed in a cathedral, and the less slow songs are paced by rhythm patterns that would be called pizzicato passages if they Read more:Download
Tool - 10,000 Days (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Rob Theakston @ allmusic.com
In an age where major labels dictate that new releases from bands appear on record store shelves every 18 months or so, rare is the artist given freedom and ability to reflect and stretch out to explore creative evolution and release music as an artist, rather than the prepackaged predictability of an entertainer. Thankfully, Tool has somehow managed to Read more:Download
Wolfmother - Wolfmother (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine @ allmusic.com
There's no denying Australian heavy rock trio Wolfmother
has been raised on rock -- specifically, raised on '70s rock. Problem is, from all appearances on their eponymous debut, they made their journey into the past via the twin gateway drugs of the White Stripes and Queens of the Stone Age, and once they dug back to the original Zeppelin and Read more:Download
The Mars Volta - Amputechture (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by John Bush @ allmusic.com
The Mars Volta are continual contenders for the mantle of most experimental high-profile metal group, along with System of a Down, an artist they've toured with but who usually sell 20 times more records. Mars Volta aren't as popular, not because their riffs are less memorable or innovative but because their cycle of musical buildup and release, although Read more:Download
Eric Clapton - Me And Mr. Johnson (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine @ allmusic.com
Ten years after his first all-blues album, From the Cradle, Eric Clapton
released Me and Mr. Johnson
, an album-length tribute to his hero, the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson. Not that this is the first time Clapton has paid tribute to Johnson. Throughout his career, Clapton has not only drawn on Johnson for inspiration, but he has covered his Read more:Download

Enya - Celts (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Ned Raggett @ allmusic.com
Initially released simply as Enya, The Celts shows that the style she became famous for on Watermark was already well under way. With production and lyrical help fully in place thanks to her husband-and-wife gurus Nicky and Roma Ryan, Enya's combination of Celtic traditionalism and distinctly modern approach finds lush flower here. All the elements that Read more:Download
The Postal Service - Give Up (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Heather Phares @ allmusic.com
Coming off their work on Dntel's beautiful This Is the Dream of Evan and Chan, Jimmy Tamborello and Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard team up again for their full-length debut as PostalService
, Give Up. Instead of covering that EP's territory again, with this album the duo crafts a poppier, new wave-inflected sound that recalls Tamborello's work with Read more:Download
Fiona Apple - Extraordinary Machine (Mp3 Download)... 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine @ allmusic.com
Like Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot before it, FionaApple

Catatonia - International Velvet (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine @ allmusic.com
Prior to InternationalVelvet
, Catatonia offered modest, lovely pleasures -- pretty, ringing pop songs filled with sweet and sour melodies. Apparently, the band was concerned that they were a little too precious, a little too similar to late-'80s indie pop groups like the Primitives, so they beefed up their sound, turned up the guitars and Read more:Download

The second half of the '90s was difficult for the Cranberries
, not just because of changing fashions, but because the group embraced both a social consciousness and a prog rock infatuation, crystallized by the Storm Thurgerson cover of "Bury the Hatchet." Thurgerson has been retained for their fifth effort, Wake Up and Smell

Carlos Santana - Playin' With Carlos (Mp3 Download... 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Richie Unterberger @ allmusic.com
At the time of this 2005 compilation, CarlosSantana
had appeared on a lot of records by other artists -- around 60, according to the liner notes of this release. A multi-disc anthology of these guest appearances would be impractical, and not especially desirable. Playin' with Carlos does offer 15 tracks Santana guested on between 1969 and 1997, though Read more:Carlos Santana

The Streets - The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Livi... 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by John Bush @ allmusic.com
Apparently, success has spoiled Mike Skinner. It's a common problem among artists who are also working-class social critics; if they become successful, it's increasingly difficult to go back to the well when everything they've used for material changes drastically -- friends and lovers, home life, work life and social life. The wallflower who could study his
Il Divo - Siempre (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Marisa Brown @ allmusic.com
Continuing their string of overtly sentimental albums, the multinational Il Divo released their fourth (including The Christmas Collection) full-length, Siempre
, which contains more of the same Latinized versions of pop songs, as well as some originals (written by their producers). All four Divos sound professional and emotional, especially Spanish baritone Read more:Download
Dead Prez - RBG: Revolutionary But Gangsta (Mp3 D... 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by John Bush @ allmusic
Though their methods aren't subtle, Dead Prez are as intelligent and philosophical a group of social activists as Public Enemy or Boogie Down Productions -- it's just that their philosophies stray more to the Geto Boys style of extreme criminal fantasies. RBG stands for Revolutionary
But Gangsta
, a stance that the Dead Prez duo Stic and M1 back up with tale after
Pieces Of Dream - Pillow Talk (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Paula Edelstein @ allmusic.com
There are but a few contemporary jazz ensembles that can boast of having more than 20 solid years of hits in their discographies. However, Pieces of a Dream
, celebrating 30 years of funky jazz with Pillow Talk, have done just that. The powerhouse contemporary jazz combo -- which can always be depended upon to provide all the right party grooves and the Read more:Download

Johannes Linstead - Mediterranea (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Chris Nickson @ allmusic.com
There's no denying the fact that Johannes Linstead is a superb guitarist with excellent dexterity. And on the basis of "Motika," he's also an accomplished pianist, with a feel for Cuban rhythm. Add to that the taste to surround himself with players of a similar caliber, especially violinist Vasyl Popadiouk, who shines on the opener, "Andalucia," and the Read more:Download
Nick Cave - From Her To Eternity (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Ned Raggett @ allmusic.com
Nick Cave
launched his solo career in style with From Her to Eternity

To be sure, Mick Harvey joined him from the Party days, as ever playing a variety of instruments, Read more:Download

Sean Paul - Dutty Rock (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Tim Sendra @ allmusic.com
Sean Paul
's Dutty Rock is an infectious record, bursting with hooks and filled with energy; it is a surprise U.S. hit. Paul's mix of dancehall and modern R&B and hip-hop is lightweight and easy to dance to. It slows down near the end as some filler creeps in, but at its best, Dutty Rock is almost revolutionary. Paul utilizes big-name producers like Sly & Read more:Download
Bjork - Medulla (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Heather Phares @ allmusic.com
It's hard to accuse Björk of making music influenced by commercial or critical expectations at any point in her career, but her post-Homogenic work is even more focused on following her bliss, whether that means acting and singing in Lars Von Trier's grim musical Dancer in the Dark; crafting tiptoeing laptop lullabies on Vespertine; or, in the case of Read more:Bjork

Genius/GZA - Liquid Swords (Mp3 Download) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Review by Steve Huey @ allmusic.com
Often acclaimed as the best Wu-Tang solo project of all, LiquidSwords
cemented the Genius/GZA's reputation as the best pure lyricist in the group -- and one of the best of the '90s. Rich in allusions and images, his cerebral, easy-flowing rhymes are perhaps the subtlest and most nuanced of any Wu MC, as underscored by his smooth, low-key delivery. The Genius' Read more:Download

Naysayers listen up. Teignmouth, England's Muse refuse to be your "next" Radiohead. Since forming in 1997, this alternative rock trio has continuously battled comparisons to the famed Oxford group while ambitiously creating a sound of their own.
