Young singer-songwriter MJ Lenderman released the best American alternative rock album of the year

Lucinda Williams is the greatest when, in the manner of a storyteller, she touches that America that we sense, a country where everything is far away, and even for the most ordinary human touch you have to cross the entire expanse, which can sometimes be the width of a kitchen table, and sometimes it is the size of a prairie. But Lucinda Williams is bigger than the biggest when even that doesn't matter anymore, it only matters who is within reach and what happens between the two, and her songs spin in that vortex that often throws out some unwanted things. The point of her expression - that one can inevitably live with unwanted things - gives an epic tone to all the stories about little people that she has told so far.
Dragan Ambrozić – Country Today, Lucinda Williams
("Time" No. 662, 2003)
The anger of a once maddened human substance growls like a dog, it has no other choice. When faced with the nothingness of her empty prospects, her despair takes on a powerful spiritual aura. Laughing in the face of the universe, shouting with it through the megaphone of the divine, gives the little man the necessary incentive to attack with sound the terrible dead end in which he unexpectedly got entangled in the middle of all those expanses. Does this sound like an esid trip to you? No, it's a new album by a great Belgrade band St.. Dog
The new concept album of the famous Birmingham band is a not overly ambitious, but cleverly designed compilation of reinterpreted "spooky" hits from the past, along with several new songs from Duran Duran, who with this themed release wanted to create a musical soundtrack for the "ultimate Halloween party".
The single isn't the best thing the Stones have released, but it has enough quality to make you look forward to the album's release on October 20th.
