Review: The reissue of Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie gives a new audience the opportunity to discover Alanis Morissette's intriguing and often overlooked follow-up to Jagged Little Pill. Released during a turbulent time in the music industry, this album was initially overshadowed by the towering success of its predecessor. However, with its diverse soundscapes and deeply personal lyrics, the record has aged into something truly unique. Morissette's voice is richer and more mature here, moving beyond the iconic style she established in her earlier work. Tracks like 'Baba' and 'Thank U' show her knack for blending introspection with biting commentary, while songs like 'That I Would Be Good' and 'Unsent' reveal her reflective side and a deeper look into her search for self-understanding amid fame's pressures. The album's eclectic mix of stylesifrom the trip-hop influence on 'Would Not Come' to the electro-tinged 'So Pure'ihighlights Morissette's willingness to experiment. Though the record's length and occasional indulgence may have put off some listeners initially, it now stands as a bold exploration of identity and artistry. This reissue is a perfect chance to appreciate the album's complexity and rediscover its hidden gems.

Review: Somehow summoning the chutzpah and spirit to go bigger-better-faster-more on each one of their albums thus far, Muse here dish out another feverish, histrionic and mightily compelling collection of widescreen art-rock stompers. With the help of none other than 'Mutt' Lange in the producer's chair, the Teignmouth three-piece make a record with an epic scope and grandstanding aplomb that could put it in the ring with any of the stadium acts he's worked with in times of yore. With an anti-war theme surrounding ditties that loom large in the imagination, 'Drones' is another bold step for this unlikely trio.
