BON JOVI
This House Is Not For Sale (Virgin EMI)
Forced to raise his game after long-term sidekick Richie Sambora left, Jon Bon Jovi is the driving force on a rousing collection of blue-collar rock. Chest-beating anthems and bullish survivor songs prevail, and new guitarist Phil X supplies a tight, catchy thrust to replace Sambora. Bon Jovis vocals are gutsy, with Labour Of Love a dark ballad and Scars On This Guitar a love letter to life on the road.

PIXIE GELDOF
Im Yours (Stranger)
The youngest daughter of Bob Geldof and Paula Yates aims for credibility rather than the pop mainstream. Her songs are softer and more subtle than anything Bob ever did. With strings and country-ish guitars prominent, she recalls Lana Del Rey on Close To You and addresses the tragic death of her sister Peaches on Twin Thing. A delicate, but quietly confident, debut. .

THE PRETENDERS
Alone (BMG)
Chrissie Hynde exudes punk insouciance while singing with a velvety sheen on the first Pretenders album in eight years. Made with fellow Akron native Dan Auerbach, its tough but tender songs have a retro-rock feel that apes Auerbach's own band The Black Keys. The title track mixes elements of David Bowie, Lou Reed and the Stones. Veteran rock n roller Duane Eddy adds twangy guitar on Never Be Together.

DAVID CROSBY
Lighthouse (Verve)
Two months after rekindling former glories by re-releasing the West Coast classic Wind On The Water (made with Graham Nash), David Crosby dispenses more sublime harmonies and hippie ruminations on a sober but engaging solo set. Big band jazz musician Michael League produces, but the tone is one of sleepy, acoustic economy. What Makes It So is a finely-wrought protest song that finds Crosbys rebel heart still beating.

THE LEMON TWIGS
Do Hollywood (4AD)
Teenage brothers Brian and Michael DAddario have become Americas hottest young rock act with this curious debut one that underpins some strong tunes with a scatter-gun blend of Pet Sounds, Abbey Road and the pomp of Queens A Night At The Opera. Those Days Is Comin Soon features a circus organ. Recent single These Words is all Elton-like piano. Its weird but with an appealing, child-like sense of wonder.

WHITE LIES
Friends (BMG)
White Lies have been too bombastic in the past but this fourth album, made in Bryan Ferry's studio, finds the West London trio adding an appealing lightness of touch to their Killers-like blend of surging guitar-rock and Eighties electronic pop. Hold Back Your Love is driven by buoyant disco rhythms and Summer Didn't Change A Thing is streamlined arena fare. Harry McVeigh's vocals are bracing while the trio's lyrics are increasingly mature.
