DELPHIC
"Acolyte"
Acolyte is the
debut album by Manchester's Delphic, a band shortlisted for the BBC
Sound of 2010. Delphic's motto is "The guitar is dead, long live
the guitar!", and it's easy to see what they mean as they mix indie
rock and euphoric electronics with great success.

JOANNA
NEWSOM
"Have one on me"
I cannot say that the new Joanna Newsom triple album is awful

2 out of 5 stars.
