1 – Jekyl And Hyde – Five Finger Death Punch – The only time I saw em live, I liked em not loved them, but this is as great as hardcore gets, with a progressive hint to the lead guitar and an addictive hook. A pleasant surprise – A-

2 – Dawkins Christ – Refused – I wasn’t crazy about the album and this is as bland as punkcore gets – C

3 – Descents – Shawn Mendes – If one more person whistles, just one more – D+

4 – After Light – Rustie – Remember when Alunageorge were the next big thing? This track by the great Glasgow DJ is a dream of a remembrance – B+

5 – Let’s Face The Music And Dance – Tony Bennett And Lady Gaga – Wow, this swings but desperately – C+

6 – Summer Wind – Frank SInatra – A true beauty, this song has the ache of a nostalgia – A+

7 – Staring Contest – Mates Of State – Never much cared for this marriage duo, this is up to nothing much – C

8 – River – Ibeyi – This is their hit single, as far as it goes, a decent piece of moody beats – B

9 – California (There Is No End To Love) Acoustic – U2 – Yes, it is that bad unless you’re David Fricke of course.

10 – Come On Siobhan – Titus ANdronicus – Off their new mixtape, catchy left a scruffy Left Banke – B+
