1.Only By The Night by: Kings Of Leon September 22, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.97 You Save: £10.02 (59%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.40
Best Album of 2008 so far.. (November!) Buy it, enjoy it love it. The only Kings of Leon track I've really enjoyed before was Red Morning Light. This Album has changed all that and I often listen to it on the way to work. I love it. Buy Van Occupanther by Midlake at the same time for a change of pace and divine aural pleasure. Enjoy!

2.Black Ice by: AC/DC October 20, 2008

Not bad, can't think of anything 2 say. It's AC/DC though and that can't be bad. Buy it.

How can you miss out T-shirt Suntan, arguably the best pop song since Teenage Kicks? Still, not a bad collection from the Cwmaman boys.

4.Off With Their Heads by: Kaiser Chiefs October 20, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.47 You Save: £10.52 (62%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £6.74
Having listened to the Album at least four times to see if the Album would grow on me I have to say this is a very poor collection of tracks. It fealt as if the Kaiser Chiefs had taken all the tracks they had previously rejected for Albums and thrown them together. Incredibly disappointing I will not be buying any future albums.

5.Slipway Fires by: Razorlight November 03, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.97 You Save: £9.02 (53%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.00
This is atrocious. Was really looking forward to this but it's been a struggle to play it right through. It has a really grating, ear shredding sound that I just cannot stand. Gave me a headache after about five songs and just annoyed me. The songs just totally lack any structure and it's so obnoxiously mixed and mastered that the end result is a characterless noise that is unpleasant to the ear. Possibly THE most disappointing release of the year (Keane not far behind). And here's a message to record labels - STOP HAVING CDs MASTERED AT LUDICROUS LEVELS - DYNAMIC COMPRESSION IS KILLING MUSIC!!

6.Rockferry by: Duffy March 03, 2008

I bought this album as a chance puchase based upon a magazine article that I had read about her. I was unaware of the hype and as they don't play very many of her songs on Classic FM and Radio 4, was also unaware of her music!! The melodies are soulful and her voice mature beyond her years. I just love this album: sad but uplifting - how's that for an oxymoron. Yes it took me back to my childhood in the 60s. I would love for her to cover "Ferry 'cross the Mersey". Comparisons to other artists such as Dusty Springfield are understandable but unfair. To me she sounds like ... well Duffy

7.I Started Out With Nothin' and I Still Got Most of It Left by: Seasick Steve September 29, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £15.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.97 You Save: £9.02 (56%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £6.97
Some people have got quite wound up about this guy being popular when there are lots of other "real" blues artists who deserve more attention... I'm no expert, but Seasick Steve's music seems fairly authentic and it's a good listen. The spoken introductions are a little annoying after a while, though, (to me, at least). Maybe he'll lead people on to other sorts of blues, which has to be a good thing. And if you like this, can I recommend you give Chris Whitley a try?

8.Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends by: Coldplay June 12, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.98 You Save: £9.01 (53%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £5.45
After 3 highly successful albums, Coldplay have reached the stage where they can let go a bit in their music. `Viva la Vida or Death and all his friends' does exactly that, it is like their equivalent of Radiohead's `Kid A'. Despite the annoyingly long title, it seems now that it is widely accepted that the `Viva la Vida' is the much preferred shortening of the title. This is shown through the front cover of the album which doesn't even mention the latter part of the album title. `Parachutes', `Rush of Blood to the Head' and `X &Y', for me was a progression as each album was better than the previous. Although the sound varied slightly from album to album, the song choice was always the same. For instance, the slow ballad which looks at the positives in ... Read More:

9.Dark Horse by: Nickelback November 17, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £15.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £8.98 You Save: £7.01 (44%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £17.90
'All The Right Reasons' was Nickelback putting one foot firmly in 'classic rock' territory. This album takes the trend further, at times overstepping the mark entirely. Some of these songs sound like pastiche - think Wolfmother, but not as good. Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, AC/DC... you could probably find a pretty big nod to any of those and more in a song on 'Dark Horse'. It's not bad, but it doesn't sound like Nickelback. I think the thing that grates on me the most is the lack of subtlety in some of the songs - one look at the song titles and you can pretty much guess where Chad's thought were when writing ('Yes, sex is always the answer, it's never a question 'cos the answer's yes...' Shame really since the song has a good riff). At least 'Animal' was somewhat tongue-in ... Read More:

10.Soul by: Seal November 10, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £15.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £8.98 You Save: £7.01 (44%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.09
Just the thing for a lazy winter's afternoon, in a comfortable chair, with an hour or so to spare before dinner. Conjures images of slow waltzes, American smooth, passion and romance. Not the deepest voice, but a mellow, musical and pleasant sound, drifting from one track to the next seamlessly. A must have for relaxation, a glass or two of red wine, and maybe some alluring company.
