Raphael Saadiq comes back to resurrect the music industry with tracks that are as sexy as they are insightful. He’s always managed to bring the best out of his music. His fourth studio release, Stone Rollin’, is no exception.
Radiohead is back, groovier than ever. Long gone are the melancholic days of The Bends, or the experimentalism of Kid A. This time, Thom Yorke and pals have taken on the challenge of making a glitchy, sample-filled dubstep album. Successfully? You be the judge.

The Piggy Dolls have returned, releasing their first full-length album. Leaving aside weight and concept issues, Piggy Dolls is a great group. Their vocals put them miles ahead of their competition in today’s idol world.
Up, Guards and at ‘Em!, the third album by Leeds-based The Pigeon Detectives, is a fairly underwhelming record with no memorable moments to make it worthwhile. With strong competition in the post punk revival/guitar rock scene, The Pigeon Detectives need to step up their game if they want to stay relevant.

Rookie group One Way bring back the R&B and Hip-Hop sound that has been absent from the Kpop music scene.
