Jesse Rose - What Do You Do If You Don't?
"Music that children could easily mix, yet so ridiculously catchy. Effortless? Yes. Effortless listening? Yes. Is fidget house any good at all? Yes."

Clem Snide - Hungry Bird
"It's like an oblivious man who plays guitar and sings for you while you are mercilessly being eaten up by black holes. Hopeless man, we feel for you, but we are music after all. Yes. Only music."

Joe Bonamassa - The Ballad of John Henry
"Manly Alicia Keys and the piano chords are mad guitar solos, it's like those lame emo music turned into a blues sing along. Of course, blues is better than emo music."
B4
Prodigy - Invaders Must Die
"If any of you remember Prodigy, they were those 'I'm a firestarter!' people. Forget about that, they don't anything like before. Incoporating French electronica and a bit of techno, toy reggae with blitzy keyboards to make dance rock music. Unambitious, but that don't mean it won't make you jerk like a retard. See Also: Late of the Pier"

Black Lips - 200 Million Thousand
"Lo-fi folk rockers make a statement with 200 Million Thousand: Trapped in a basement."
B4
J.J. Cale - Roll On
"Talk-blues-rock with a repetitive strength. Like lighting cigarettes and replaying the feeling over and over again while watching the news and smelling the smell of the countryside."
B3
Wendy & Lisa - White Flags of Winter Chimneys
"Heroes' bitches make softy music, then kill you with hardcore rock in the middle- they're not sure where they're going with this album. Inconsistency is not necessarily a good thing though, so just toy along with it."
B4
God Forbid - Earthsblood
"Least' it's better to hear someone get constipation than feeling it oneself, righ'? Right."
D7
Laura Gibson - Beasts of Seasons
"Soundtrack for when Harry Potter started ditching all his friends and lighting fags by the corridors. Soothing, yet somewhat dead."
B4
Green River Ordinance - Out of My Hands
"Green River Ordinance = Fray?"
E8
Shemekia Copeland - Never Going Back
"Woman gots a voice to show, and she showin'"
B3
Darwin Chamber - Monkey Business
"Minimal music for toddlers. Forget Mozart, let their minds evolve through Darwin (Chamber)."
B4
Tiga - Mind Dimension - EP
"A quick 20 minute electronic breakdown by the streets, and one guy hanging around the breakdancer cutting in with cheesy lines. They probably don't know what they're doing, but it's appreciated."
Highly Recommended: Mind Dimension (Bloody Beetroots Remix)

Dorian Concept - When Planets Explode
"Instrumental hip hop, except you don't get your average sampled stuff, you get... exploding planets. Like every beat's an exploding planet, and everything else, I don't know. Bloody brilliant."

The Bran Flakes - I Have Hands
"If 3 year old children took acid drugs..... I Have Hands would be a Children's album. Negativland for kids."
Highly Recommended: Stumblin' out of Bed

Lamb of God - Wrath
"Heh, it's funny how when they sing the choruses, which are higher-toned than the verses, bridges, etc, they sound like they're trapped in a voice cage- they can't go further than their constipation can."

The Bran Flakes - I Have Hands - Stumble into Bed
