“Ultraviolence” should’ve been the most talked about album of 2014 but it fails to deliver with a mediocre selection of songs that don’t live up to it’s predecessor “Born To Die”. Lana Del Rey has one of the most unique voices in the industry and brings her haunting vocals to life on this album but…

ALBUM REVIEW: Sia – 1000 Forms Of Fear
Sia is the musical genius behind the hit songs “Diamonds” (Rihanna), “Titanium” (David Guetta), “Let Me Love You” (Ne-Yo), “Radioactive” (Rita Ora) and “Pretty Hurts” (Beyonce). After stepping out of the limelight in 2010 she has returned with her sixth studio album. “1000 Forms Of Fear” is easily Sia’s strongest collection of work and is the…
TRACK BY TRACK REVIEW: 5 Seconds Of Summer
1. “She Looks So Perfect” – It’s the song that put 5SOS on the map worldwide with its infectious chorus and cheesy lyrics that you can’t help but love. 2. “Don’t Stop” – The follow up single to “She Looks So Perfect” was always going to be highly criticised but it delivered with a punchy…
ALBUM REVIEW: Jennifer Lopez – A.K.A
Jennifer Lopez returns to her roots on “A.K.A” proving that she’s still Jenny From The Block with a diverse album of slow rnb jams, classic urban tracks and future club bangers. Technically (honestly) it’s not an incredible album that I’m going to rave about but neither of her past albums have been either. There are…
ALBUM REVIEW: Sam Smith – In The Lonely Hour
Ed Sheeran is a fan, Katy Perry has labelled him the male Adele and the rest of the world has been falling in love with him. Sam Smith has been dominating the charts over the past couple of months and now his highly anticipated debut album is finally here. Featuring in EDM tracks by Disclosure…
ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: Tove Lo
Currently sitting at number 10 on the Australian ITunes Charts with “Stay High” Tove Lo is quickly becoming a name not worth forgetting. The Sweedish songstress is fairly new to the music industry with her debut EP “Truth Serum” being released in March 2014. She isn’t just a talented vocalist but has written tracks for…
SINGLE REVIEW: The Collective – Burn The Bright Lights
The Collective have returned with one less member, a new song and a slower sound. “Burn The Bright Lights” impresses with its strong harmonies and its cheesy but honest lyrics that will have girls melting. It’s been received well by radio, fans and critics alike but honestly the song is a bit too manufactured and…
ALBUM REVIEW: Mariah Carey – Me. I Am Mariah
Mariah Carey has been in and out of the recording studio for three years working on her fourteenth studio album perfecting and preparing to make a huge impact. Sadly it falls a bit flat and has only seen one of her singles “#Beautiful” become a commercial success. Going into this album with an open mind…
ALBUM REVIEW: Foxes – Glorious
Don’t let the name lead you astray. No, Foxes isn’t an alternative folk band it’s actually the clever stage name of UK songstress Louisa Allen. Hailing from Southampton this synthpop vocalist had massive success featuring on Zedd’s hit single “Clarity”. Her debut album “Glorious” allows listeners to get to know Foxes in a different way….
ALBUM REVIEW: Cher Lloyd – Sorry I’m Late
It’s been a long time since we’ve received new music from Cher Lloyd and after a few delays and push back’s her new album is finally here. Ironically titled “Sorry I’m Late” this second coming from the songstress delivers a new sound and direction. Redirecting her sound to be more pop driven while in the…
