ALBUM REVIEWS
Colors / 6.3
Beck’s 13th album is his most overtly pop record, one filled with sunshine and sadness, but feels connected to little more than a good idea.
Tell Me You Love Me / 7.2
On her sixth album, Demi Lovato finds a consistently compelling space: flinty, flirty R&B that’s just as thrilling hushed as it is at full blast.
Younger Now / 4.7
LBland production and weak songwriting hamstring the personalized nature of Younger Now, making it merely a suggestion of the kind of artist Miley Cyrus could be.
Joanne / 6.9
Now that her peers have caught up to her visual provocations, Lady Gaga seems to add a breath of fresh air to the usual sound of the radio this.
