Subtropical Spinnew
While the songs on Trina's third album are rife with tribulations, Miami's diamond princess remains completely nonplussed. She leaves no room for the blues.

A Throwback Riddimnew
This dancehall don dada sounds most sincere in a song calling for marijuana legalization, but the pimp juice in other tracks runs a bit low.

Resurrectionnew
A new, single-disc compilation from Dead Can Dance is not exactly a stop-the-presses moment, but Memento is nonetheless an interesting document.

A Slump So Sublimenew
Love Kraft is a good album by Super Furry Animals' standards and a great one by the standards
of most other rock bands.

His Take on Swing Is Contemporary and Retronew
Traditional covers from Ellington, Gershwin and "Fats" Waller swing freshly, and Ray Noble's "Cherokee" features a breakneck virtuosity.

Stardust Memoriesnew
It seems strange that one of the most popular acts of the 60s would only now be out on CD. But Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass haven't just been out of print for the past 30 years: they've been wiped from the collective memory banks.

Upstate New York’s Coheed and Cambria refuse to come down to earth. Yet despite their lack of obvious hit-single material, they are inhabiting major-label arena-rock.

Space Casesnew
The Welsh supergroup Super Furry Animals have appeared on stage with giant inflatable bears and bright blue "Peace Tanks," but they've always trumped those antics with their music.

Deranged Funnew
Quintron and Miss Pussycat's shows suggest a glorious, unholy alliance of Kukla, Fran, and Ollie and the Cramps. They manage to project their theatrical charms even on a CD.
