Boards of Canada - Inferno
77

Very bloated. There's an awful lot of great on here, but also a huge amount of wasted space

Knats - A Great Day in Newcastle
64

Had the potential to be a really great album but got lost switching abruptly between genres. It's less of a flowing fusion and more a jarring mess

Moby Grape - Moby Grape
65

Like a solid imitation of the other big bands of the era, but without the ability to write a single complete, fleshed out track

Saya Gray - QWERTY
75

Review removed

Friko - Something Worth Waiting For
68

There's quality here, but it's not interesting or fresh enough to captivate

Miles Davis - Workin' With The Miles Davis Quintet
45

Really average affair from the greatest to ever do it

Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters
72

This is my third listen and the first time I haven't found this album absolutely grating to the ears. There's still something intrinsically unlistenable to some of the tracks on this album, but I'm starting to see that there's a lot of good in there as well.

Fela Kuti & Africa 70 - No Agreement
83

second track is a bit repetitive, but still some reliably good afro-jazz

TOMORA - COME CLOSER
84

Really grows into itself, but gets off to a very slow start

Tom Waits - Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards
50

It's a fun experiment but it gets real tedious real fast

Moby - Everything Is Wrong
60

It's a chaotic mess of an album

Samba Jean-Baptiste - +3
67

Some really cool ideas on here but definitely needs some more fine-tuning. Lots of promise though for sure

Thundercat - Distracted
52

Turns into a real snoozer

The Twilight Sad - IT’S THE LONG GOODBYE
68

There were definitely some highlights in the tracklist, but the more I listened to it the more it started to sound like a poor imitation of something from a bygone era

Snail Mail - Ricochet
37

This is really really weak

The Necks - Aquatic
81

Aquatic 1 was a great listen but the second track was not up to par

LØLØ - falling for robots & wishing i was one
38

It's really vapid, and a blatant attempt to capitalise on the success of Olivia Rodrigo's first two records, but it's honestly not the worst listen

Shabaka - Of The Earth
50

There are a couple of high highs, but most of this is wank. Even the spoken word segments which I'm normally a sucker for are extremely weak

Absolutely - Paracosm
82

Some weak delivery lets down an otherwise stunning record from a young voice

Bill Callahan - My Days of 58
61

Unfortunately got a bit masturbatory towards the end, but starts off super strong
