It's hard to believe Paul Weller has been making records for the past 30 years ago. Listening to the cluster of sharp, searing opening tracks on his seventh solo album--"Blink and You'll Miss It" and "Come On/Let's Go," in particular--it sounds like the former Jam leader hasn't aged a day. It's only...

A watershed '90s release, Screamadelica was the most convincing marriage of overground rock and underground dance music yet.

With The Man Who, Scottish quartet Travis captured the very essence of their homeland, and unassumingly blew us away. The moderately paced, longing melodies, and lead singer Fran Healy's quietly desperate vocals, provide a haunting mask on what is actually a rugged, enduring, and entirely beautiful ...

With a stealth that would make the most cunning panther proud, in its serpentine career the English collective James has accumulated one of the most impressive song catalogs around. It hardly matters that few of these singles have been stateside hits. James's spec...
