MoisturizerEditor's choice
Wet Leg
Moisturizer
Domino
Pop/Rock
The band's first album as a five-piece goes beyond virally catchy singles with witty, heartfelt love songs for people who don't want to fall in love.
- Heather Phares
Utopia
Gwenno
Utopia
Heavenly Recordings
Pop/Rock
The Welsh singer/songwriter sets aside electronics (mostly) on this alternately down-to-earth and ambitious set of warmly emotional and introspective songs.
- Tim Sendra
LonerEditor's choice
Barry Can't Swim
Loner
Ninja Tune
Electronic, Pop/Rock
The U.K. producer's second album contains several club bangers along with lush, sentimental material similar to his debut.

Dionne Warwick
Make It Easy on Yourself: The Scepter Recordings 1962-1971

The collaboration between Brazilian piano legend and the JID crew offers a kaleidoscopic encounter with American jazz, samba, and Afro-Latin funk.
- Thom Jurek
Bright NightsEditor's choice
Allo Darlin'
Bright Nights
Slumberland
Pop/Rock
Warm and tuneful throughout, the indie pop group's first album in 11 years sounds a little more reflective but otherwise like they never left.
- Marcy Donelson
What Do You Do All Day?
Autocamper
What Do You Do All Day?
Safe Suburban Home Records / Slumberland
Pop/Rock
Sprightly indie pop derived from classic sounds of the past but given new life thanks to the uneasy balance between the two vocalists.
- Tim Sendra
Around SoundEditor's choice
Mike Polizze
Around Sound
Paradise of Bachelors
Pop/Rock
The second solo album from this Philly artist is stormy, meditative, and quietly powerful even in its mostly acoustic rendering.
