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

David Byrne  Who Is The Sky

The artist’s new album of bright, bustling pop is positioned as a celebration of reasons to be cheerful. Often its fountain of optimism feels like a firehose of forced positivity Pitchfork

Ed Sheeran  Play

On the enjoyably moreish Play, the ‘culturally Irish’ star sounds as if he’s back on form. Although we’ve only had time for a quick listen The Irish Times

Baxter Dury  Allbarone

This record plays like his shot for glory, and with tracks as hooky and well-constructed as "Mockingjay" or the title track, there's no reason he shouldn't hit the big time All Music

Parcels  Loved

While not for cynics, LOVED is a late-summer delight that comes at audiences with open arms. Comfortable dancing shoes recommended for listening All Music

Parcels  Loved

Parcels have built something contagious here, with a joy that leaves you feeling that little bit lighter when you’re done with it Dork

Parcels  Loved

Loved is a departure for Parcels but one that is constantly invigorating, the group are clearly incredibly relaxed and that is reflected in the calming, and highly enjoyable soundscape they have created on this record The Line Of Best Fit

Parcels  Loved

The star of this entire record is without question the harmonies. They are razor sharp, technically astounding and forever charming, leaving you wanting more of them at the close of every song Far Out

Maruja  Pain To Power

They really have taken a complicated moment and made it into a fantastic piece of music Far Out

Maruja  Pain To Power

Incredible lead single Look Down On Us is just one of three tunes here that capture Maruja’s free-flowing approach by stretching out to the 10-minute mark Kerrang!

Maruja  Pain To Power

The Manchester jazz-punks let loose on their savage debut album through cathartic outpourings of fury, despair and love NME

Maruja  Pain To Power

The thrill of this band is the extremes. From moshpits one minute and silence the next, they are in command with their music, unifying the crowd God Is In The TV

Maruja  Pain To Power

This band and this record want you to punch a hole in the wall, ask if you're willing to step through it – and then beckon others to do the same The Line Of Best Fit

Maruja  Pain To Power

Maruja emerge from the studio with raucous rap-rock and meandering jam music in tow, resulting in an album full of the same songs several times over. By the end, listeners may feel they have deja vu. Fans may feel they have dementia The Quietus

Maruja  Pain To Power

Rage-infused music of dissolution Clash

Jade  That's Showbiz Baby!

Debut solo album by Little Mix singer is packed with incident and a multitude of musical styles musicOMH
