Review: Harry Styles 'steps into the light' with great album
Harry Styles, โFine Lineโ (Columbia )Arriving just in time to mess-up everyone's best-of-the-year music lists is Harry Styles' sophomore album, โFine Line.โ The former One Direction member richly deserves a spot on yours. The 12-track album continues Styles' tour through his musical influences โ his salute to rock royalty โ and yet also shows signs that he's coming up with his own sound. The men of One Direction are each taking their own direction, but Styles' proves the most ambitious ( Take notes, Liam Payne ). Styles has reunited with producers Jeff Bhasker, Tyler Johnson and Kid Harpoon, who helped mold his sound on his first album. The moody, string-based โFine Lineโ ends the album, another song about the push-pull of former flames and broken things.
Review: Liam Payne stumbles badly with embarrassing debut CD
Liam Payne, โLP1" (Capitol)One Direction fans have reason to rejoice this holiday season: They get not just one, but two full albums from former members โ Liam Payne and Harry Styles. Payne's 17-track โLP1" never really gets off the ground, a collection of monotonous club songs that often sound like warmed-over Justin Beiber rejects. Thereโs a good reason for the first tune being good โ itโs co-written by Ed Sheeran and Payne doesnโt try to disguise its origins, mimicking Sheeran vocal tics and flow. For a first album, Payne surprisingly doesn't show up: He had a hand co-writing only four songs and fails to do anything interesting with his voice. While Styles is off making fascinating, intriguing music, Payne is clearly phoning in his debut from the club.
