Rachel Chinouriri, I Think I Spoke Too Soon
On her second album, the English artist pivots to clubbier sounds that both satisfy and sting as she suppresses loneliness with a fake smile and a polished dance-pop sheen.
Fontaines D.C., Dopamine Chamber
Opting for a synthetic architecture over the driving guitar language of earlier records, the Dublin band shatters their sonic frontier to reveal a grim catechism for hyper-processed hedonism.
Hole, Pretty on the Inside [Reissue]
Featuring denser, remastered sound and its original bonus 12-inch, the deluxe version of the grunge icons’ debut is a claustrophobic, jam-packed, corrosive epic.
