...slower. The results are a little simplistic but nevertheless charming. Los Campesinos! may at times be too sugary-sweet for some people’s tastes, but they’re never less than sincere and are regularly laugh-out-loud funny.

Menomena is fearlessly confident in its musicianship, and even the album’s few faltering steps are refreshingly original...

...film manages to portray even the level-headed Ian MacKaye (founder of Dischord Records, and member of Minor Threat and Fugazi), as an off-the-wall fanatic. The Minutemen—subjects of their own excellent documentary “We Jam Econo”—are the only band whose importance equals their portrayal in “American Hardcore,” but their folksy, jazzy punk sounds could hardly be called “hardcore” in the first place...
