Reviews

I’m surprised at how much I enjoyed this album.

“Wow, that new One Direction song is pretty catchy.”

The band that redefined what it means to suffer for one’s art has never been happier or more optimistic than it is right now. That newfound era of good feeling was on full display at the United Center on Friday.

Could “Spiderman Turn Off the Dark” provided the framework for a U2 album that would have been superior to “Songs of Innocence?”

Robin Thicke’s “Paula” is the most interesting album of the year. Maybe even of the last decade. But is it good?

R.E.M.’s first appearance on “MTV Unplugged” shows a band on the rise Their second shows a band in decline.

Until the last five minutes, the series finale of “How I Met Your Mother” was excellent. Then, it jumped the shark.

I still can’t believe Pantera’s Far Beyond Driven debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200.

Toad the Wet Sprocket return with their first album since 1997.

Here’s my review of Depeche Mode’s concert at the Barclays Center during the recent “Delta Machine Tour.”
