I was talking with a friend of mine about Cranberries albums, and he asked me, which one is the odd one? The one that doesn’t fit. Well, it certainly is “To The Faithful Departed”. While “No Need ” was a natural evolution from “Everybody “, this album is the unnatural …

Portugal. The Man has been a favorite of mine ever since Waitor: You Vultures, and I consider them one of the most fluid bands around. By fluid, I mean they change a hell of a lot from album to album. American Ghetto is definitely no exception. It starts off …
