EVANGELIST
FORSTER, ROBERT - EVANGELIST
"It's impossible to listen to Forster's The Evangelist without thinking of McLennan, but to his credit Forster has designed it that way. His legacy and spirit are startlingly present on his partner's elegiac return, not surprisingly an album of great poignancy and gravitas. 'Something's not right/something's gone wrong,' goes McLennan's chorus to Demon Days: last words of devastating, helpless prescience. 'He knew more than I knew, and I hated what he hated too, this world,' Forster sings. It’s lovely, and lonely, and utterly heartbreaking."

THIRD
PORTISHEAD - THIRD
"Portishead's Third has been a long time coming. While the core trio of Beth Gibbons, Geoff Barrow, and Adrian Utley remains, this is quite a different band to Portishead's 90s incarnation: gone is the slo-mo turntable scratching and smoky jazz feel, replaced by heavy, brooding rhythms, vintage-sounding electronics, and spindly guitar. But Third is a brave and forward-thinking return, and one great enough to justify its lengthy gestation."

CRYSTAL CASTLES
CRYSTAL CASTLES - CRYSTAL CASTLES
"Thank the digital age for Crystal Castles—and the cartoon She-Ra, for whose home the Toronto-based electronic duo is named. Their rough stuff borders on being listener-unfriendly but helps to tease out the aggressive undertones in its slower, more measured counterparts. Ultimately, both sides reach a stylistic détente, falling into the well-crafted Super Mario-style, Sturm und Drang rhythm that marks Crystal Castles as one of the most pulse-hiking electronic albums in recent memory."

MAGNIFICENT FIEND
HOWLIN RAIN - MAGNIFICENT FIEND
"By turns pummeling and pastoral, 'MAGNIFICENT FIEND' oscillates between roaring, all-stops-out, Hammond organ-driven tracks and delicate electric piano passages, topped by harmonized, often dissonant guitar lines. Toss in counter-melodic bass, sometimes quirky breaks, and extended instrumental sequences that are either ascending to the heavens or cascading softly, softly from the skies in sparkling showers of gunpowder and smoke. All held together by Miller's distinctive, crushed-velvet roar, which extends to a sweet, plaintive falsetto. Magnificent indeed."
