The easy way out is to say that A Sufi and A Killer is a strange wonder of an album that evades description, and leave it at that.
Actually, there is no easy way out of this album. My favourite description of the record so far simply hailed it "the new soul"--a beautiful idea, which is pretty vag... Comment - Like

another mixtape. It's mostly reggae and rocksteady tunes, peppered with some lo-fi R&B and other echoey jams. I was moved by the raw intensity and intimacy of a lot of these songs, which is why I thought I'd create a special mixtape for them to live in--a mixtape of reverb-swept recordings, full o...

I feel like I should be writing about one of the more upbeat tracks on Spoon's new album--something exciting to kickstart my late entry into Music: 2010 (Is it March already?), but whenever I sit down to write something lately, I seem to be in an exhausted, sorta sentimental mood.

It would make sense if, instead of a song, "Daniel" was a vampire. That would explain the song's hypnotic presence, its eroticism--its cold, dark romance--and why you're powerless to resist it. Singer, Natasha Khan, barely has to whisper the first line and you'... Comment - Like
