The Vinyl Countdown # 266 

Daryl Hall & John Oates, Voices (1980) Just a great run of singles here – but also some weird folly-stuff too.

Phantogram: Voices

Phantogram Voices Universal Republic American electronic pop-rock duo Phantogram return with their second album, a nice step up from the decent-enough Nightlife EP and leaving their indie debut in the dust. Voices has that widescreen sheen – but never at the expense of the songs, which is to say it’s not about dressing them up […]
