    This is merely designed to please the diehards…if anybody else happens to like it or if it stumbles into a hit, that's merely a bonus

  2. 5.0 |   musicOMH

    10 suggests New Kids On The Block are either incapable of creating or unwilling to create a new sound to present to the world

  3. 5.0 |   PopMatters

    10 is an album for the fans who have followed the band since their days as kids, not one that has the juice to breakthrough to the new generation of listeners

  4. 4.0 |   The Arts Desk

    It would be foolish to think that NKOTB are making music for anyone other than their hardened fans

  5. 4.0 |   The Guardian

    A muddle of mid-2000s electro, bubblegum-urban modelled on their early hits and conveyor-belt ballads

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
