Michael Jackson Xscape Epic / MJJ Music Contemporary R&B AllMusic Avg User Surprisingly enjoyable and savvy collection of unreleased MJ material, pitched halfway between Off the Wall and the 2010s. The Black Keys Turn Blue Nonesuch Garage Punk AllMusic Avg User The Ohio blues-rock duo gets soulful and spacy on the follow-up to their 2011 blockbuster El Camino. Tori Amos Unrepentant Geraldines Decca / Island / Mercury Alternative/Indie Rock AllMusic Avg User A quintessentially Tori record, one that's as seductive in its pain as it is in its comfort. Little Dragon Nabuma Rubberband Republic Synth Pop AllMusic Avg User The Swedish group's fourth, mostly self-produced album is highlighted by a handful of stormy ballads. Neil Young A Letter Home Reprise / Third Man Records Album Rock AllMusic Avg User Odd collection of covers of songs from the '60s and '70s, all recorded direct to vinyl in Jack White's Voice-O-Graph booth. Chromeo White Women Big Beat Records Alternative Dance AllMusic Avg User The swagger of the '80s meets the dancefloor punch of 2014 on this fine album from the electro duo.
