This song isn’t bad, but it sounds more like a No Doubt song than a Gwen Stefani solo song. And we’ve actually liked her solo stuff more than No Doubt. So, we’re hoping that her album sounds more unique. We need more songs like “What Are You Waiting For” and “Wind It Up,” ya know?…

Imagine that The Killers were born a few decades earlier and were just starting out in 1985… We have a feeling that’s what Cosby did when the band wrote this uppity, super synthy number. The self-produced group, which features two brothers with the last name Cosby, also calls to mind M83, The Presets and Future…

It’s so good it calls to mind Ed Sheeran’s latest album. He’s got that rapid-fire vocals thing going on and it’s…

To be honest, we weren’t sure if Betty Who was going to live up to all of the hype surrounding her, but now that we’ve tasted her delicious album, Take Me When You Go, we can say that she delivers the goods. If you liked La Roux or Ladyhawke’s debut albums, then you’ll love this.…

We’re still amazed by the fact that these guys make all of this massive-sounding music using only bass guitar and drums. It’s insane, really, but it sounds superb. There need to be more songs in the world that use bass guitar like a lead guitar. Just check out Royal Blood’s self-titled full-length album if this…

You don’t need us to tell you how brilliant Ingrid Michaelson is. You just don’t. Either you get it or you don’t.
