The 66 of the title refers not to the hallowed pop year of 1966 — a time that saw the release of Revolver, Aftermath, Face to Face, and A Quick One, among other classics — but the age Paul Weller will be shortly after the release of his 17th solo album.

Partway through “It’s Just Another Fine Day (In This Universe of Love),” the opening track of Blue Electric Light, Lenny Kravitz starts singing “lockdown!” — an unmistakable allusion to the limbo of the COVID-19 pandemic. This timely reference dates Blue Electric Light in a way the music painstakingly avoids. Continue reading “Lenny Kravitz – Blue Electric Light (2024)”

This is more like it. After a period of diminishing returns via one-off soundtrack contributions and her misunderstood Music soundtrack, Sia returns in a huge way with the triumphant comeback Reasonable Woman. Her first proper solo set since 2016, the album features all the sonic hallmarks for those fans who have been pining for that particular “Sia sound” that propelled her beyond the indie-sphere to the top of the charts.

Call Honeymoon the third installment in a trilogy if you will but there’s no indication Lana Del Rey will put her doomed diva persona to rest after this album. Over the course of three albums, Lana Del Rey hasn’t so much expanded her delicately sculpted persona as she has refined it, removing anything extraneous to her exquisite ennui.

Lana Del Rey is a femme fatale with a smoky voice, a languorous image, and a modeling contract. Not coincidentally, she didn’t lack for attention leading up to the release of her Interscope debut, Born to Die. The hype began in mid-2011 with a stunning song and video for “Video Games,” and it kept on rising, right up to her January 2012 performance on Saturday Night Live (making her the first artist since Natalie Imbruglia in 1998 to perform on SNL without an album available).

Lana Del Rey knows perfectly well her Lust for Life sounds sleepy in comparison to Iggy Pop’s full-blooded roar, but that doesn’t mean the title of her fourth album is ironic. Compared to her previous albums, especially its somnolent 2015 predecessor, Honeymoon, Lust for Life is positively ebullient in tone, if not in tempo.

With the creation of her Lana Del Rey persona, singer/songwriter Lizzy Grant stitched together the iconography of a fading American dream with soaring but melancholic pop songwriting, becoming an icon unto herself in the process. Her distinctive approach blurred sadness and longing just as it did past and present, drawing on the influence of classic American pop Continue reading “Lana Del Rey – Norman Fucking Rockwell!

Lana Del Rey’s 2019 album Norman Fucking Rockwell! represented a new level of artistry, as the singer moved further from the disaffected Hollywood starlet persona of her early recordings into something more restrained, subtle, and mature.
