Why Hasn't Everything Already Disappeared?

Pop/Rock

The band's fascinating eighth album examines impermanence, inhumanity, and death with songs that sound deceptively life-affirming.

The singer/songwriter's debut album is filled with polished production and heartfelt performances.

Buffy Sainte-Marie

Medicine Songs

November 10, 2017

Political Folk

Buffy Sainte-Marie has been as much of an activist as a musician since she cut her first album in 1964, and 2017's Medicine Songs shows her music and her fervor remains strong and thoroughly up-to-date. Featuring two new songs along with revised and re-imagined salvos from her back catalog, this is the sound of a committed artist who refuses to go stale or stop fighting the good fight when it's needed.

- Mark Deming

Moose

...XYZ

September, 1992

Alternative Pop/Rock

Showcasing a new sound for Moose after the hazy guitar effects experimentation of their first three EPs, their debut album focused on songcraft and sophisticated pop instead.

- John Bush
