Albums of the Week (Issue #4)

November 30th, 2025 - December 6th, 2025

1) Otis Redding - The Dock and the Bay

    Southern Soul - 1968

    One of the greatest soul singers of all time, Redding’s 1968 record brims with life with amazing vocal delivery. A great starter for people wanting to get into soul.

2) Gentle Giant - The Power and the Glory

    Progressive Rock - 1974

    One of the weirder rock albums out there. An unusual sound whose melodies and structure will challenge listeners and their ability to embrace the weirdness.

3) Mylène Farmer - Ainsi soit je...

    Synthpop - 1988

    Breakthrough album for one of the best selling French artists of all time. Farmer's 1988 album is an atmospheric mixture of baroque and synth kinds of pop with a hint of goth.

4) The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses

    Baggy - 1989

    Rest in Peace Mani.

5) Lingua Ignota - Caligula

    Neoclassical Darkwave - 2019

    A terrifying experience. A lifetime of violence, abuse, and raw emotions culminated into a single 66-minute masterpiece.

With a deeper focus in the grooves and improvisational aspect of bop, Sonny Clark and his band comes to life in this brilliant cult classic. 2) Betty Davis - They Say I'm Different      Funk - 1974      With her controversial performance style and sexually charged lyricism, Betty Davis delivers an uncompromising collection of funk music .
