Living Colour - Time's Up
52

There's some value to be gleaned from this record but mostly it's just very weak on all fronts

WILLOW - empathogen
81

There are still tracks on here that make it clear that she still isn't 100% sure who she is as an artist, but for the most part this is a very impressive record

Kamasi Washington - Fearless Movement
70

Lots of ideas and lots of talent on show here, but the execution and composition is lacking for large swathes of this lengthy record

LustSickPuppy - CAROUSEL FROM HELL
60

with the exception of the closing track, this doesn't quite work

Rachel Chinouriri - What A Devastating Turn of Events
88

Unfortunately it doesn't quite maintain the highs, but still an extremely solid record throughout

Dua Lipa - Radical Optimism
69

Seems to lose interest over the last 3 or 4 songs

Maruja - Connla's Well
90

it's good but it's not blowing me away

SeeYouSpaceCowboy - Coup de Grâce
78

Really comes into it's own in the second half

Justice - Hyperdrama
81

Doesn't sustain. It's 50% debut quality, 50% filler lacking energy and ideas. At no point would I describe it as bad however

Bladee - Cold Visions
34

I normally like Bladee but this is traaash

M83 - Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts
86

Grows a little weary towards the latter half, but still a very strong sophomore release

33

just really unenjoyably dated

Wisp - Pandora
87

Most of this would have slotted in seamlessly on yeule's latest record, high quality shoegaze top to bottom

Bob Vylan - Humble As The Sun
82

some really strong tracks on the back end but too much of this feels forced, like the duo are trying just a bit too hard to be who they claim to be

Eunuchs - Harbour Century
74

Weak lead vocals leave this record a tier or two below it's contemporaries

Birdy - Young Heart
81

Doesn't sustain it's strong start, but still a very solid effort

Elliott Smith - XO
71

There's a quality there undoubtedly, but the songs just don't captivate or click the way the best Elliott Smith does. It all sounds a little uncomfortable
