Rich Brian - WHERE IS MY HEAD?
90

Significant improvement over The Sailor, especially in his storytelling

underscores - fishmonger

What a fun listen. Looking forward to whatever these guys put out next.

Arlo Parks - Collapsed In Sunbeams
85

I hate to comment like this, but this do have no skip. One of my fave release this year.

Kero Kero Bonito - Civilisation II
90

Love Sarah's voice on Time 'n Place, and she sounds even better on this project.

CIX - HELLO Chapter Ø. Hello, Strange Dream
80

wtf I'm pleasantly surprised? This reminds me of Winner's EXIT era. Love the guitar and overall theme they're going for this time.

Balming Tiger - Balming Tiger vol.1 : '虎媄304’
90

Brockhampton 2.0: Azn Szn!
Unfunny meme aside, Balming Tiger is one of if not the best hip hop collective in South Korea at the moment, and this album proves that, bringing raw lyricism on top of experimental and dynamic beats to the table. Hip hop listeners in general will find this album highly enjoyable.

BENEE - Hey u x
75

More diverse vocal dynamic on this one than her previous project, which is a huge plus for me. Still some tracks are dragged or just plain out boring..

Kali Uchis - Sin Miedo (del Amor y Otros Demonios) ∞
80

Tfw Kali just single-handedly saved latin music industry in 2020.

BTS - BE
25

Another bunch of disconnected singles thrown together as an album. God, I miss Skool Luv Affair.

ORβIT - 00
80

A solid debut album from the Japanese Indie boyband, orβit. Filled with amazing vocal performance, great rap, and good lyricism on top of a good selection of trap, future bass, and ballad. The lack of cohesion made the album listening experience a bit unpleasant.

Adrian Von Ziegler - The Celtic Collection II
90

As good as the first collection if not better.

Adrian Von Ziegler - The Celtic Collection III
90

Adrian never disappoints. This third compilation album just him flexing his best stuff, for the freaking third time.

CIX - HELLO Chapter 1: Hello, Stranger
75

A solid debut EP from korean group CIX, bringing slower tempo music to kpop industry with 1990s boyband vibe.

CIX - HELLO Chapter 2: Hello, Strange Place
75

A step to a right direction from their first EP. Yonghee's underutilized vocal is more visible this time.

WINNER - EXIT : E
90

Mature, fresh, artistic, and emotional. Not only was this Winner's best project, this is also Kpop at its best. The combination of organic instrumental layered with EDM and 808 done beautifully well throughout the album. Sadly we will never get the X, I, and T for God knows how long.

Kero Kero Bonito - It's Bugsnax!
80

At this point, Sarah can just sing about anything and I will give it an 80. Every. Single. Time.
Just so fun to listen to.

Kero Kero Bonito - Flamingo
80

This is not even a music, this is a cultural reset.

Kero Kero Bonito - Bonito Generation
90

Just a fun record that wont bore you.

Kero Kero Bonito - Time 'n' Place
85
