This is for sure my favorite album of all time and made Magdalena Bay my number one artist of all time. When I first listened to this album I was absolutely floored song after song after song. I got chills all over my body hearing it and I still get chills an entire year later. For the longest time I described this album as a Tame Impala x Grimes x Jack Stauber love child and I was so completely sat for it. Each song is perfectly weird and perfectly written with so much stuff to discover and ... read more
God, I love this genius man. I already reviewed HiLo and I believe I mentioned that he has a weird way of captivating you with his avant-garde lyrics, and those words carry over from my HiLo view so much. While I think this album is slightly weaker than HiLo, it's still very much amazing. It truly is exciting and fun to dive into the world of Jack Stauber and look at his interpretation of typical feelings and thoughts. He, in the best way I could word it, is like an artist who so happens ... read more
I absolutely adore this album and the vibe it captures. I don't know if I'm the only one who feels like this album is the soundtrack to some western romantic tragedy, but that's what I think of when I listen to this (and maybe it's what was intended or obvious and I'm just an idiot). Like it has been said a thousand times before, Mitski is so good at making you feel what she is saying and the emotions she is trying to convey. I especially like with this album that she ... read more
I'm glad that if there is at least one thing can agree in terms of Taylor Swift, it's that this album is phenomenal. I think it's so fascinating when an artist makes an album that follows a fictional narrative, and I like Taylor's take on it more so because of her talent as a writer. It cannot be argued that she has a unique way of putting feelings into words that I'm really not seeing any other artist do in the industry. The production with Jack and Aaron here is truly ... read more
I cannot believe how amazing this album is. It's always really fascinating how it seems people will focus on one aspect of a persons work (in this case Buttercup) and seemingly toss aside the rest of the persons work, no matter how great it is. I would argue that HiLo tops Jack Stauber's entire discography, and I think it's a shame that many don't seem to know about it. Anyways, this album is absolutely amazing and has me floored every time I turn it on. I think Jack has ... read more
First bad review, kinda nervous. Well, there goes 55 minutes of my life I will never get back. Before I tear into this album that people seem to enjoy (?), I will give it the benefit of the doubt for being influential in the electronic genre. Unfortunately, just because something is objectively viewed as influential, it doesn't save it from being a bad body of work. This album is incredibly amateur and grating. Most tracks sound like a bad video game soundtrack, with the highs of the ... read more
