SINGLE REVIEW: One Direction – Perfect

I’m really loving One Direction’s new sound and I never thought I would say that. Look, I loved their early material but then they became misguided, bored and released some really uninspired pop tracks. After losing Zayn Malik they have become experimental again and are providing strong pop tracks with a rock influence which will…

ALBUM REVIEW: Demi Lovato – Confident

  Demi Lovato has a new found confidence and she’s flaunting it. On the appropriately titled fifth studio album “Confident” this album sees her breaking ties with Disney for once and for all and becoming the artist she is truly meant to be. The sexual experimenting “Cool For The Summer” and empowerment anthem “Confident” lead…

SINGLE REVIEW: Troye Sivan – Talk Me Down

Troye Sivan has gone from being my front runner for breakthrough artist of the year to becoming one of the most predictable pop acts of right now. His originality is lacking with the overuse of bland beats that sound recycled. His latest EP was a collision of pop brilliance (Fools, WILD) and exhausted try hard…

SINGLE REVIEW: Ellie Goulding – Something In The Way You Move

This has already become my favourite songs of right now and for good reason. “Something In The Way You Move” is the first promotional single from Ellie Goulding’s highly anticipated third studio album “Delirium” and with the current success of “On My Mind” it’s no surprise everyone is talking about her. This track continues the…

ALBUM REVIEW: Lawson – Lawson

Lawson are a band I’ve been following for a few years now. They had me captivated in 2012 when I heard a track called “Die For You” which featured as a B-Side on their breakthrough single “Standing In The Dark”. It’s been a while since they released their debut studio album “Chapman Square” so it…

SINGLE REVIEW: Olly Murs – Kiss Me

For some reason Olly Murs thinks it’s necessary to re-release his album “Never Been Better”. As soon as I saw this announced I rolled my eyes and had a little laugh but then I heard the new single and I was impressed. “Kiss Me” is a FUNKY pop track that sees him re-installing my faith…

SINGLE REVIEW: The 1975 – Love Me

The promotion for this single has been L O N G to say the least. No one quite knew what was actually happening, if the single would just drop or if they were going to drop the full album at once. Well it finally happened, the extremely catchy first single “Love Me” from their upcoming sophomore…

ALBUM REVIEW: Selena Gomez – Revival

For her second solo studio album Selena Gomez has tried to rebirth herself with a mature sound and more natural approach. Ironically called “Revival” this album allows her to show an improvement and strength in her music. In the title track she sings “I feel like I’ve awakened lately, the chains around me are finally…

SINGLE REVIEW: Montaigne – Clip My Wings

Unique pop songstress Montaigne has already blessed us with the quirky and intimate EP “Life Of Montaigne” and she’s finally ready to offer more cinematic vibes. “Clip My Wings” is a grand pop song that plays on her eccentric personality and her theatrical pop sound that she cemented with her debut EP. Her vocals are…
