Album review: Lupe Fiasco, "Lasers"

The story behind Lupe Fiasco's "Lasers" is more interesting than the album itself. (Rafael Crisostomo/FTWP) The story of the three-years-in-waiting "Lasers" - its multiple delays, its tormented creator, its eventual crowd-sourced release - has consumed everything around it. For Lupe...

Album review: Sara Evans, "Stronger"

A recent divorce is lyrical fodder for many songs on country singer Sara Evans's new album. (Courtesy of the artist) Country singer Sara Evans's latest album is just the sort of loosely autobiographical song cycle you might expect from someone...

Album review: Ron Sexsmith, "Long Player Late Bloomer"

Ron Sexsmith shares more keen observations on his latest. (Natasha Bardin) Ron Sexsmith has a rainy-day voice to match his rainy-day songs. Mellifluous but with enough of a burr to keep your attention, it's a unique quality that the baby-faced,...

Album review: Marsha Ambrosius, "Late Nights & Early Mornings"

Former Floetry member Marsha Ambrosius delivers a debut of pleasing if inessential neo soul. (Courtesy of the artist) Formerly known as "The Songstress," Marsha Ambrosius was once the R&B half of British hip-hop/R&B outfit Floetry. The duo broke up in...

Album review: DeVotchKa, "100 Lovers"

DeVotchka's fifth album is its most accomplished. (Courtesy Anti- Records) Among common rock-and-roll adjectives, "majestic" is perhaps the most overused and least useful. But if one starts to think of majesty as less "Kashmir" and "Bittersweet Symphony" and more the...
