ALBUM REVIEW: Lewis Capaldi – Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent
Lewis Capaldi is a new type of pop star. The Scottish singer-songwriter is an artist whose music embodies a vulnerably raw sentiment and dives emotionally in-depth into his past, present and future. The sonical structure of his debut album ‘Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent’ is pretty standard. It contains classic pop ballads layered with…
ALBUM REVIEW: Conrad Sewell – LIFE
Conrad Sewell’s debut album has been a long time coming but it’s that same time that has ensured that this release is as authentic as possible.

SINGLE REVIEW: OneRepublic – Rescue Me
