  1. 8.0 |   Uncut

    Might be their best of the new century. Print edition only

  2. 8.0 |   All Music

    Old 97's still sound engaged, energetic, and as committed as ever 23 years after they released their debut, and Graveyard Whistling is evidence they're not short on fresh ideas either

  3. 8.0 |   American Songwriter

    Proves that even in the young man’s game of country rocking, growing older is no impediment to creating exciting, even exhilarating music that feels vital, fresh and dangerous

  4. 7.5 |   Spectrum Culture

    One of those rare acts that does and seems to get better at it with each successive album

  6. 7.0 |   Exclaim

    Entering the 'elder statesmen' portion of their career, Old 97's show no sign of mellowing out or pandering to their audience

  7. 7.0 |   Paste Magazine

    The record doesn’t bring anything new to the Old 97’s body of work. What it does do is get the band back on the road, which is where they still blow most bands out of the water

  8. 6.0 |   Under The Radar

    The songs are undeniably likeable, their likability almost formulaic, yet still surprisingly retaining a fresh-faced charm

The Beths  Straight Line Was A Lie

They’ve made their most mature, most incisive album yet. Not reinvention. Continuance. The long way round, mapped with clarity Dork

Baxter Dury  Allbarone

Allbarone is the next destination for Dury as an experimental artist; he’s successfully been able to capture something new with his twist on hyperpop. The result is an intriguing effort that catapults him into the future realms of pop Beats Per Minute

Baxter Dury  Allbarone

Allbarone is Baxter Dury’s most hypnotic and groovy record yet, fusing his sardonic wit with club-ready beats. Distinct, contemporary, and utterly Dury, the artist’s ninth album proves he’s far from running out of ideas Northern Transmissions
