Sort by: Rating | Release Date | Rating Date | NameArctic Monkeys Suck It and See5.0A huge accomplishment; in the middle of their career, Arctic Monkeys have created a record so bold and exciting that it nearly tops their still classic debut. The combination of styles, old and new, creates an incredible mesh of feeling and proves why a sidetrack like 2009's "Humbug" is so necessary. They took a risk with that album, and it pays off big time here. Bon Iver Bon Iver, Bon Iver4.5It doesn't have the same raw emotional power as their debut, but on their second, self-titled LP, Bon Iver unleash an absolutely beautiful sound that will haunt you for a very long time. Bon Iver For Emma, Forever Ago5.0Radiohead Amnesiac2.5Radiohead The King of Limbs3.0Just because it's Radiohead doesn't make it worth shouting about, but it also doesn't mean it should be a disappointment. Instead, while the hipsters overrate it and the fans complain about it's length, the British rockers are ignoring the noise because they accomplished what they wanted to and nothing more: a quiet and minimalist piece that will hypnotize you momentarily and then be forgotten. It's not a musical adventure like their previous album 'In Rainbows'. It's a cool experience.
