Goo Goo Dolls - Summer Anthem
82

I might be the only one who loves this. Best release since Something For the Rest of Us.

Coldplay - Music of the Spheres
40

Coluratura makes this score as high as it is for a pretty underwhelming album. This is still the best offering since Ghost Stories.

Amyl and the Sniffers - Comfort to Me
50

About half this album rocks out.

Still Corners - The Last Exit
88

Other than the dunes song, ever song lands and is beautiful.

Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d city
90

One of the best rap albums I've ever heard alongside Illmatic and Graduation.

Radiohead - A Moon Shaped Pool
86

An enchanting landscape that feels unlike any other landscape I've heard from the boys or any other band. The first two songs are weaker but by the 3rd song I'm all in.

Descendents - 9th & Walnut
80

I am a huge fan of Cool To Be You and despite it being poppier from them, I would say that is my favorite album from them (I would give it a 90), and Hypercaffium was also excellent but not as good (an 82). This new album shreds but does not live up to the height of their previous two albums (although not far off from their last album). Most of the songs are excellent (Yore disgusting is pretty bad imo) and in time I may like this more than Hypercaffium.

Modest Mouse - We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank
90

I know this is the first album that is considered to be weaker than their first four but I don't skip a single song and some of the best songs they have ever made live on this album. I think this is their best and their most cohesive.

Maroon 5 - JORDI
17

Haven't enjoyed a full length Maroon 5 album since 2007 but this one has a couple good moments. As a whole though, cliche, boring lyrics, and so mainstream sounding there is no identity here. Sorry boys, this is not for me.
