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
Hurry Up Tomorrow [Original Motion Picture Score] [2 CD]
The Weeknd
Hurry Up Tomorrow [Original Motion Picture Score] [2 CD]
Republic / XO Records
R&B, Pop/Rock, Stage & Screen
Production from Oneohtrix Point Never gives this score for The Weeknd's somewhat autobiographical film a heavy, dystopian feel.
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

Dom Salvador JID024Editor's choice
Ali Shaheed Muhammad / Dom Salvador / Adrian Younge
Dom Salvador JID024
Jazz Is Dead
R&B, International, Jazz
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
