Review: Eat Your Young by Hozier
by Maddie Bimonte Hozier is back again after a four-year hiatus with a brand new EP: Eat Your Young. The lead track, “Eat Your Young,” which had been teased for weeks on TikTok, immediately grabbed my attention.

Review: Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd by Lana Del Rey

Review: Cracker Island by Gorillaz
By Camryn Brathwaite Whether you identify as a fan or not, I’d like you to ask yourself which genre of music you’d associate Gorillaz with the most. Alternative? Perhaps rock or electronic hip-hop?

REVIEW: The Car – Arctic Monkeys
By Georgie Fleming Arctic Monkeys’ alluringly experimental new album, The Car, leans into all the heart-wrenching absurdism of their previous work.
