Calvin Harris 'I Created Disco' Album
Review
So electropop is trendy now? Never
mind the fact that the likes of Girls Aloud and Rachel Stevens
have been churning out high quality electropop for
ages… At the forefront of this new fashionable electronica is Calvin Harris,
whose hit Acceptable In The 80s has become as
overexposed as the footless tights and denim skirt combo.

Siobhan Donaghy 'Ghosts' Album
Review
Albums can be lots of things –
catchy, witty, original, passionate, well-sung,
well-written... What many of them aren’t, however, are things
of beauty. Siobhan Donaghy’s second album, Ghosts, is such a
thing of beauty that it deserves to be hung up in an art
gallery.

Infernal
'From Paris To Berlin' Album
Review
Why do dance acts even bother releasing albums?! All their
songs sound the same, innit? Yet with their album, Infernal
prove that there is more to them than From Paris To Berlin
– not much more but just about enough.

Beverley
Knight 'Music City Soul' Album
Review
Finally! Beverley Knight has produced an album that is at
least slightly deserving of her powerhouse voice.

Joss
Stone 'Introducing Joss Stone' Album
Review
Joss Stone’s appearance at The Brits,
sporting Mika’s album cover, with hair that looked like it had
been dunked in Ribena and spouting therapy-speak in a strange
accent, is now the stuff of legend.

Jessica
Simpson 'A Public Affair' Album
Review
What with Britney flashing her crotch (and shaving her head)
left right and centre and Christina believing she is
channelling the voice of dead soul artists, the time was ripe
for Jessica Simpson to claim position as prime American pop
strumpet.

Mika 'Life In Cartoon Motion' Album
Review
Some curly-haired camp Lebanese geezer top of the charts –
who’d have thought it, eh? If you love Grace Kelly
(and, let’s face it, it would be hard not to), then it’s a
near certainty that you’ll also love Mika’s album, Life In
Cartoon Motion.

A
Brokedown Melody Review
A collection of surfer lullabies, for your more
mellow/semi-conscious moments, it’s hard to get exactly
excited about A Brokedown Melody, especially since I’ve
never even heard of the film.

Lil'
Chris Album Review
He may be pint-sized, but this album proves that Lil’ Chris is
destined to become massive. Filling the Busted-shaped void on the
music scene with this set of irresistibly infectious slices of
guitar-driven pop rock.

John
Legend 'Once Again' Album Review
To change your name from
plain old John Stephens to John Legend speaks of a remarkable
amount of self-confidence. It’s lucky then, that John Legend
more than lives up to his name.

All
Saints 'Studio 1' Album Review
Take That certainly have a lot to answer for. Following their
mega-successful comeback, every Tom, Dick and Harry has been
having a stab (East 17? Why?! MN8? Who?!). Thankfully, All
Saints were one of the more credible acts to reunite.

Popjustice
Compilation Review
The world’s best website (other than teentoday.co.uk, of
course) releases the world’s best compilation. It’s as simple
as that.

Paolo
Nutini 'These Streets' Review
Despite his name, Paolo Nutini is actually Scottish. Perhaps
all that cold and rain accounts for the tangible bittersweet
sadness that haunts this album.

Step
Up Original Soundtrack Review
If you like R 'n' B, this soundtrack will be your idea of
nirvana. If you’re not its biggest fan, you’ll be less
enamoured. It does get off to a great start.

Jamelia
'Walk With Me' Album Review
I can safely say that the worst thing about Jamelia’s third
album Walk With Me is its cover, which unfortunately
makes her look like a drag queen. Otherwise, this album is a
complete poppy frothy delight.
