BOY GEORGE
This Is What I Do (Very Me)
‘I’ve got my sparkle back,’ sings Boy George on his first album of new songs for 18 years. It’s hard to argue with the Culture Club singer on the evidence of this heartfelt and varied return. His pop-soul voice has acquired a deeper, knowing edge, but the crooner’s touch suits him well.

JAMES ARTHUR
James Arthur (Syco)
Gritty soulster James Arthur is a welcome antidote to the X Factor’s usual parade of boy-bands and divas, and this assured debut confirms the promise shown by last year’s winner. He’s a bluesy belter in the style of Joe Cocker. Stand-out track Roses is a lovely Emeli Sandé heartbreak ballad.

TINIE TEMPAH
Demon-stration (Parlo-phone)
Having topped the singles charts with Written In The Stars and Pass Out, rapper Tinie Tempah tried making this new album in the States before wisely returning to his South London roots. The result is an articulate mix of quick-fire rapping, clever rhymes and melodramatic balladry.

ELIZA DOOLITTLE
In Your Hands (Parlophone)
Once dubbed ‘the new Lily Allen’, the one-time Eliza Caird returns with a surprisingly mature second album. Recent single Big When I Was Little harks back to the fizz of her self-titled 2011 debut, but the swirling Let It Rain and the sublime No Man Can are more representative of a developing talent, showcasing a sultry voice equally at home on piano-based soul tracks and heartbreak ballads.

PEARL JAM
Lightning Bolt (Monkey Wrench)
Album number 10 finds the Seattle grunge warriors still thundering away like a gang of young punks. Eddie Vedder's gruff vocals might not be to everyone's taste, but the guitars of Mike McCready and Stone Gossard sweep all before them on Getaway and the title track. The softer, reflective numbers are even more impressive, with Sirens and Future Days adding a pleasantly poppy edge to all that hard rocking.

JOHN NEWMAN
Tribute (Island)
A bequiffed young hunk from the Yorkshire Dales, singer and bandleader John Newman has already topped the singles charts twice and this debut reiterates that his blue-eyed soul voice is up there with the best. Think Justin Timberlake meets Roland Gift of the Fine Young Cannibals. His songs add a modern sheen to the driving beats of northern soul and Sixties R&B.; Love Me Again is one of the tracks of the year.

ANNA CALVI
One Breath (Domino)
Two years ago, Anna Calvi earned a deserved Mercury Prize nomination for her melodramatic debut album. This sequel lacks some of that early fire, but its greater variety suggests the London singer and guitarist is here to stay. Opening track Suddenly rekindles the euphoric spirit of old, but most of these songs explore more vulnerable emotional terrain. Sing To Me is an atmospheric homage to opera star Maria Callas.

ARCTIC MONKEYS
AM (Domino)
Exceptional at the iTunes Festival this week, Arctic Monkeys have lost their spiky edge, but this more mature album is their best yet. With Alex Turner’s Yorkshire croon and incisive lyrics to the fore, a diverse set mixes funk, cinematic moods and heavy — but catchy — rock. And Turner leaps confidently from the lovesick blues of No. 1 Party Anthem to the Smiths-like stomp of I Want It All.
