Reception

Charmaine de Souza from The Music said "Honey Bones is an effortlessly cool collection of breezy tunes that's guaranteed to be every triple j fan's wet dream. The stellar combination of dreamy vocals and layered hooks is rough around the edges in all the right ways and works hard at putting its listener in an almost inescapable trance." [2]

Amanda Sherring from Forte Magazine said "This album fine tunes everything [Stone has] done in the past to reach the epitome of what it means to blend fantasy and reality" saying her personal favourite is "Stonecutters" adding "There's psych, tribal, folk and rock all wrapped up into one bundle of daydream-igniting bliss."

Load is the sixth studio album by American heavy metal band Metallica, released on June 4, 1996, by Elektra Records in the United States and by Vertigo Records internationally. The album showed more of a hard rock side of Metallica than the band's typical thrash metal style, which alienated much of the band's fanbase. It also featured influences from genres such as Southern rock, blues rock, country rock, and alternative rock. Drummer Lars Ulrich said about Load's more exploratory nature, "This album and what we're doing with it – that, to me, is what Metallica are all about: exploring different things. The minute you stop exploring, then just sit down and fucking die." At 79 minutes, Load is Metallica's longest studio album.

Known for working slowly, Williams released her fourth album, Sweet Old World, four years later in 1992. Sweet Old World was met with further critical acclaim, and was voted the 11th best album of 1992 in The Village Voice's Pazz & Jop, an annual poll of prominent music critics.
