Sir <strong>Van Morrison<\/strong> possesses one of the finest voices in all music, and he uses it to good effect on his 35th studio album, <strong><em>Keep Me Singing<\/em><\/strong>. By way of a complete contrast, alt-rock superstars <strong>Pixies<\/strong> release their second post-reformation album, <strong><em>Head Carrier<\/em><\/strong>, and it\u2019s a monster! <strong>Opeth<\/strong> continue their journey from death metal to prog of the most engaging and intense type with the beautiful <strong><em>Sorceress<\/em><\/strong>, <strong>Slaves<\/strong> crank up the volume on their spirited and noisy second, <strong><em>Take Control<\/em><\/strong>, <strong>Ultimate Painting<\/strong>\u2019s third album, <strong><em>Dusk<\/em><\/strong>, is intricate, involving and lovely guitar pop, <strong>Regina Spektor<\/strong>\u2019s <strong><em>Remember Us To Life<\/em><\/strong>, her first for four years, is well worth the wait, and <strong>Joanne Shaw Taylor<\/strong>\u2019s <strong><em>Wild<\/em><\/strong> is just that: wild blues\/rock guitar and vocals which is a punch in the gut \u2013 in a nice way!<\/p>\n<p class=\"display\">Release of the week is <strong>Bon Iver<\/strong>\u2019s <strong><em>22, A Million<\/em><\/strong>.
