“Cartoon Darkness is another potent and boundlessly confident body of work by these Melbourne punks, fronted by an absolute badass in Amy Taylor.”

“The joyful light of listening to Safia Nolin is too intense to confuse for darkness.”

“This album is practically flawless, harkening back to the endless black nights of the Cure’s ’80s discography. And it gets better with every listen.”

The 14th studio album by rap icon LL Cool J carries the weight of someone curating hip hop history.

“It’s an album that flips between sunsets in Ibiza and nights after hours in a grimy basement club, and it’s a clear step forward musically for Jamie xx.”
