Shellac
To All Trains
It's tragic and a damn shame that Albini is gone, and before this could be released. However in my opinion his death may color this release as something that it's not -- a masterpiece. There are some tasty, very Shellac-y jams here to be sure, and the production is clean and refined (perhaps, restrained?) to a degree that past Shellac releases were not. But that same restraint is apparent in the songwriting which is not particularly ambitious... not that it needed to be. I'm glad that there's more Shellac in the world, I am sad it will be the last, but this is unfortunately not an amazing addition to the discography.

Menomena
The Insulation EP
It's exciting that Menomena might be back in the game, however the first two songs here, while solid, are B-sides from Mines, and the third track (the only new one) is really pretty weak.
