Nouvelle Vague - Nouvelle Vague
78

There are a few gems on here and conceptually it's very interesting, but there's only so far you can go relying so heavily on cover songs

Scissor Sisters - Scissor Sisters
49

the hits are the hits, everything else is not

Kylie Minogue - Impossible Princess
82

I'm not sure her voice suits the genres she attempts to explore here, but the vision and sound is certainly there

Nadine Shah - Filthy Underneath
85

really bold and interesting sound, just lacking in the execution on occasion

Hurray for the Riff Raff - The Past Is Still Alive
71

Some very forgettable but functional folk-country. Think Waxahatchee but less compelling

I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME - GLOOM DIVISION
76

There are some real highlights on this record, but when it's doing it's thing on the remainder of the album it's just very mediocre

Allie X - Girl With No Face
84

I don't know why I didn't love this, it's the sort of thing I'm a sucker for and I can see the quality is there, it just didn't grab me the way other similar records have. Still, undeniably a very solid album from Allie

MGMT - Loss of Life
65

Definitely had promise at the start but ultimately just a bit of a damp squid

Justice - †
97

Some of the beats are a little drawn out but overall this is close to perfection

Grimes - Geidi Primes
80

Unpolished, but the signs of things to come are there

Lil Ugly Mane - THREE SIDED TAPE VOLUME ONE
91

The content does run a little dry in the second half, relying too heavily on instrumental beats and leaving us short on the bangers of the earlier portion of the record, but the quality of the album never falters to the very end

Yeat - 2093
78

Pretty solid

MUTEMATH - Mutemath
55

Chaos is an incredibly awful track, yet the album still manages to offer plenty of value among the generic alt-rock

Alex Cameron - Oxy Music
67

There's some classic Alex Cameron in here somewhere but nearly everything just feels a bit off

Kali Malone - All Life Long
36

The vocal tracks are interesting but the instrumental tracks are very drab and lacking in any kind of artistry or imagination

84

Honestly Kanye disgusts me as much as anyone else these days, but I've always preached separately the music from the artist and admittedly, troublesome lyrics and a few duds aside, this is better than anything we've heard from Kanye in a long while

Little Simz - Drop 7
72

Feels like some of this should have been saved for a longer project as it's just not very coherent as an EP, even if the quality is still there

CHVRCHES - Recover EP
21

Recover is a classic Chvrches single but everything else on this EP is truly awful

Sleigh Bells - Treats
86

Grows tiresome quick, but ultimately doesn't overstay it's welcome and offers some very exciting and genre-pushing noise pop
