On the Record: Queens of the Stone Age, Jagwar Ma, Quadron and more
QOTSA will never make a terrible record as long as Josh Homme’s around; the unholy marriage between dance music and rock grooves has never sounded better on the Aussie duo’s debut, and Quadron's sophomore wins with avant R&B and folk funk.

On the Record: Camera Obscura, Eleanor Friedberger, The-Dream and more
The fifth from the legendary Glasgow collective is another maudlin mix; Friedberger's sophomore solo LP is another dazzling collection, and Terence Blanchard is back on Blue Note for an inspired set.

On the Record: Daft Punk, Brand New Heavies, Tricky and more
The Parisian DJs/electronic dance duo’s first in eight years is brilliant Euro-disco pop; the jazz funk pioneers’ 10th is a fantastic tribute to disco and retro funk grooves, and Tricky's latest rivals the brilliance of his ‘95 debut.

On the Record: Eve, Pinata Protest, Bibio and more
The Philly native’s fourth LP its way more bangin’ than anyone’s gonna expect; Pinata Protest's latest is fresher than tableside guac, and the Brit producer pauses for dreamy and pillowy pastiche.
