'The Adversary' is ... more ... quite a good album, but muddled and messy, as Ihsahn dabbles in various metal genres with no sense of a satisfying fusion. 'Invocation' sounds like a weaker version of Emperor's later years, 'Called By the Fire' is especially grating in its entirely clean vocals that sound as bad as a pre-pubescent Vintersorg, and the ten-minute finale 'The Pain is Still Mine' is a wussier ballad than I thought an Emperor alumnus capable of.

ONE STEP CLOSER 
I LOVE THIS TOWN Successful change of approach. Keyboards rule over guitars. Faster, more energetic and more talented than predecessor. Classic heavy metal style sounds comparatively weak on occasion. Good album-art, memorable choruses, innovative guitar work, melancholy, emotive. Poor drums, repetitive, mainstream Fantastic vocals, excellent songwriting and execution, loads of atmosphere, great lyrics Vocals might be offputting to somePost To Wire - Richmond Fontaine
Well-crafted songs telling poignant tales; great musicianship; evocative pedal steel None to speak of
Magic - Bruce Springsteen
great tunes none really
Fur And Gold - Bat For Lashes
A completely unique experience, Natasha Khan is a talented lady! Might be too avant-garde for many people.
Every Second Counts - Plain White T's
Hey There Delilah is a classic song Could be longer
Drastic Fantastic - KT Tunstall
Some of the quieter songs are amazing Not a collection you'll fall in love with, but still might enjoy
Dominate - Adagio
Competent and enjoyable progressive power metal. A couple of terrible songs, and far too derivative of Symphony X.
Beyond The Neighbourhood - Athlete
Pop Rock - 2007
Awkward Annie - Kate Rusby
an excellent album, lots of lovely songs that one track with the dodgy harmonies
All The Lost Souls - James Blunt
A quality album from start to finish - Absolutely Brilliant! Short album that can be heard in less than 40 mins
Mi Sueno - Ibrahim Ferrer
Ferrer's beautiful voice, simple arrangements None at all
