Current Spins

0304 - Jewel: [****]
Storming. Jewel goes Pop. Enlisting Shakeria's producer Lester A. Mendez should ensure plenty of UK airplay when it's released here in September. Superficially different, it's still Jewel underneath. 'Haunted' is worth 4 stars on it's own. Not for those irritating Jewel fans who scream for "Foolish Games" all the way through the gig.

Arachnophobiac - MSG: [***1/2]
Pleasant return to listenable melodic metal from one of the world's most accomplished guitarists. First MSG album we here at Bemuddlement have REALLY liked for years.
