    By making alterations and affecting his pose, Mraz pushes himself into new territory, creating music that's perilously close to sounding seductive

  2. 7.0 |   Pop Matters

    When you write songs as interesting and expansive as some of those that appear here, it’s impossible to dismiss or discredit the guy’s knack for crafting neat little pop tunes

  3. 6.0 |   Rolling Stone

    He's a Gen-Y version of Jimmy Buffett, with booze and boats replaced by veganism and yoga

  4. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    Lyrically, Mraz may be all fluffy towels and soft blankets, but he pairs his words with a variety of genres that show him to be a cracking musician

Metronomy  Love Letters

It sees Joe Mount taking time to finesse the familiar into something rich and exceptional, elevating his lyrics and off-kilter music to a rarely more affecting state Loud And Quiet

Laibach  Spectre

Spectre packs a mighty punch of dirty, electronic beats and provocative and intensely political songs The Arts Desk

The Manchester band have another critical hit on their hands with their 6th album. DIY say they "sound revitalised", and Clash call it "rich and rewarding", while Q lavish it with a 10/10. The only discordant note comes from The Skinny, who accuse the band of "coasting"
