Going slack on this; just haven't been able to find time to hear new music. I prolly will over the course of this week though.
Twenty One Pilots, a band that has seemingly become nostalgic for everyone, no matter what period in their discog they remember, is perhaps most celebrated for "Vessel". This album is a good time, and absolutely nothing beyond that. Lyrically, the band is a little corny, the beats are enjoyable at best, generic at worst, and the singing is a mixed bag.

After hearing "Joy as an Act of Resistance" yesterday, my hype for IDLES' "Ultra Mono" skyrocketed. So, coming into this album today, I had great expectations. Truth be told, this album is leagues below JaaAoR, but that doesn't mean it comes without its groovy tunes and politically charged lyricism. There's definitely a handful of headbangers on here, which derive from the sheer energy conveyed through these tracks. The band's stupendous communication is put on display once ... read more
I've finally found a Deftones album that has truly clicked with me.
"Ohms" is so awesome; need I say more. Out of those I've heard, it's the strongest album from the Sacramento nu-metal band. What makes this album as great as it is, I think, is how Deftones are seamlessly able to morph their new sound and their much-loved old sound into one cohesive, kick-ass project. No song here is dull. No song here is bland. Every single track is just packed with raw and incredible energy, which ... read more

"The Ascension" was, without a doubt, one of my most hyped albums of the year. Considering the respect I have for Sufjan as an artist, I had nothing but high hopes for this record and, for the most part, those expectations were met. I must say, alarm bells were ringing when I heard the opening track, which I found to be tedious and repetitive. Fortunately, the album fixed itself up immediately. The tracks to come contained a feel very similar to "The Age of Adz": an album I ... read more
George Miller, formerly Youtube king Filthy Frank (one of the GOATs), currently Joji, on his sophomore release "Nectar" definitely produces some of his highlights as an artist. His production is always solid, his vocals work better here than ever and sonically this album proves to have some his nicest and most soothing moments. When the songs are good, the songs are pretty great. When the songs aren't as good, unfortunately, they come across as quite forgettable and, at times, ... read more

Hi there!
I noticed you rated AZEEZUS, but haven't checked out Elimination Chamber by Insomnia Café.
It's a short project that we're trying to get to 25 ratings. We'd love for you to check it out!
No worries if you don't!

Yo, you may not know who I am but I just put out my first project of 3 I'm releasing this year. I tried 8 different styles and really tried to keep the whole thing engaging throughout, it has mainly elements of hiphop and you'll see me try my best to follow in the steps of new artists like Slowthai and Joey Bada$$. I got it properly mixed and mastered and I hope I can win you over with at least one track. Give it a try and review it, I would love and appreciate some feedback. All love <3

About
My friend says that I've ruined music because I review it analytically (same guy said he'd give LYSF a 3).
I use my library as a list of albums that I want to listen to in the future. I always re-rate stuff (I have mass re-rating days).
My reviews are worse than Corey Feldman's "Angelic 2 The Core" (just like my Letterboxd).
