Any decent music? We review the reviews. You get the final word

Sophie  Oil Of Every Pearl's Un-Insides

There are garish, hyper-kinetic tracks but there are also more reflective moments, a welcome shift in emphasis The FT

Nine Inch Nails  Bad Witch

An inventive, aggressive return The Observer

The Carters  Everything Is Love

Born out of therapy-like recording sessions, it marks the pair’s first full-length collaboration, but listeners hoping for detail on their reconciliation might be disappointed: this is curated veneer, not ugly exposition The Observer

Kamasi Washington  Heaven & Earth

Gang Gang Dance  Kazuashita

A return to an altered cultural landscape The Observer

Kamasi Washington  Heaven & Earth

As bold and maximalist, as rhythmic and righteous, as one might expect from the reedsman who helped kickstart the global jazz renaissance. A must-have Evening Standard

Nine Inch Nails  Bad Witch

He’s headed back to the dark seam he tapped for still horrifying 1990s albums like The Downward Spiral and The Fragile Evening Standard

Kazuashita is impeccably made, but it could stand a little more chaos A.V. Club

Kamasi Washington  Heaven & Earth

Earth is loaded with mentally and emotionally draining songs A.V. Club

Protomartyr  Consolation E.P.

This dose of bruising revolt results in a strong antidote to our collective liberal disgust Punk News

Gang Gang Dance  Kazuashita

Engaging and magical throughout DIY

Johnny Marr  Call the Comet

Thirty-five years on from breaking into the industry, Marr’s still got plenty of tricks up his sleeve and certainly proves it on his best and most interesting solo album yet Gig Soup

Kids See Ghosts  Kids See Ghosts

No one may be more responsible for introducing a dark mood to mainstream hip-hop than Kanye West and Kid Cudi Spectrum Culture
