There’s definitely something winsome about Where’d You Learn to Kiss That Way?. But two discs of the stuff tends to get a little much.

I am interested to hear where they take this polished brand of sound on the full-length.

Aida will gently settle around you like nice, thick blanket, coaxing you to bed but never boring you to sleep.

Haunting soundscapes that conjure up misty beaches, abandoned lighthouses, and hulking shipwrecks.

Hearing familiar songs get twisted into sometimes wonderful new shapes makes “I Might Be Wrong” worthwhile.

An understated little gem that deserves far more notice than it’s ever likely to receive.

4 discs might seem like a little much for any band, but given Dead Can Dance’s diverse, extensive catalog, it feels just about right.

Halou’s sophomore album is another lovely blend of harsh electronica and 4AD-esque vocals.

This gentle instrumental music is tinged with feelings of regret and melancholy.

A diverse array of musical styles anchored by John Grant’s rich voice and heartbreaking lyrics.

It’s a whole new world, one that contains new discoveries in every track, every minute, every second.

Sure to be a massive hit among progressive lovers.

I really enjoyed listening to this record and believe it will have a lot of success… shake your hips!

This feels like a schizophrenic band desperately in need of a psychiatrist to help cure their many personalities.

It’s beautiful and swirling dreamy chords with beautiful female vocals, much like My Bloody Valentine.

This is a record for a melancholy autumn spent gazing at unreachable stars.

Arkport is at their best when they ditch the new wave and focus on crafting lazy, atmospheric pop songs.

Travis have produced an extremely accessible, melodic album.

Like all good collaborations, something new and interesting was forged out of that which was familiar.
