Fall Out Boy - Save Rock and Roll
35

This is the first fall out boy ive listened to and thought, wow this shit sucks. I havent yet listened to mania or american beauty/psycho yet however so things may get worse. Fall out boy have always been great, infinity on high, cork tree, folie a deux, and yes I even think so much for stardust is a good album. This is not. Starts alright, but the end is mostly just plain awful. Not good album in the slightest, however a few songs that arent awful do pull up the rating to something just a bit ... read more

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
55

I'm ngl I just don't get it. I've listened to this at least 10 times to try and like it but this is not a Clarity situation - I still don't get it. Sure it's probably objectively good, but I just can't vibe with it. Not for me. The chain is great tho. Please remember 50 is average, I'm not calling this bad, a lot of this just blurs together, and not in a good way.

Jimmy Eat World - Clarity
100

Ok so yes I said no more 100s, but then I remembered a few more albums do exist lol. Obviously it looks like I'm 100s out like a slut gives BJs at the moment, but obvs I'm gonna review the stuff I love the most at start. Anyway this is perfect. I've had a weird relationship with this album, first time I heard it I thought it was overrated and just okay. And then I felt the same for the second, and third and so on. But overtime of making myself listen to this like 10 times in 2 ... read more

Korn - Korn
80

This album was one of my first dives into nu-metal, and it's certainly the peak of the movement along with SOAD. Some absolutely incredibly incredible tracks with faget being a huge stand out. Definitely Korns best album and overall good from start to finish - maybe slightly suffers from a few tracks feeling the same despite sounding different.

Interpol - El Pintor
75

It's Interpol, it's very good - not too much to say. The songs themselves are good but become even better as an album. Very enjoyable experience, however the middle section is slightly not as good as the rest. But that's the least important part of an album so still good.

The Killers - Wonderful Wonderful
65

This is an album. It is good until the final song, which is the worst non b side the killers have ever released. It's a shame, it brings back the sound of Sam's Town and battle born which is of course a great thing - and the execution is quite decent, a step down but more diagonal than straight down. Overall a solid album that I do enjoy despite the negatives, and this being the killers worst album shows how consistent their discography is.

The Killers - Hot Fuss
100

My only other perfect album. No not every song on this album is a perfect song, not every song is the best - but fucking hell do they form together my favourite album of all time. Whether I'm wanting to slit my wrists, party with friends, or just vibe to good music - this album is here. The album has the same electro-poppy-rock sound throughout without deviating, yet something about the songs writings and vocal deliveries make it perfect for all times. I've obviously heard the claim ... read more

Jimmy Eat World - Futures
100

Starting my aoty journey with something truly special to me.
I first heard Jimmy eat world through bleed American, but they were just an okay band to me. At some point i heard the song night drive and thought to myself this shit slaps. So at some point last year whilst visiting the Peak District I went for an early morning walk and listened to this.
It truly was the biggest case of an album instantly grabbing and engulfing me. I had never and had not since had a similar first time impact from ... read more

On RUDAK1's review of Jimmy Eat World - Clarity
"I understand the discontent towards sky harbours length, but I completely believe this wouldn't as perfect if not for the 12 minutes of pure instrumental. This album for me has been an experience every time I listen to it, and I find myself looking back on certain aspects of my life. The 12 minutes really allows me to think about life and what it means. I may sound stupid and I might have explained it very badly, but it's perfect for this album. Now I do still very much love it as a standalone song and will never skip any of it, but it's certainly made to be at the end of this masterpiece"
On JohnyTale4's review of The Killers - Day & Age
"I cant tell what shocked me more, better than hot fuss or dustland fairytale being one of the lowest song. next hes gonna say its better than sams town..."
On DestroidAndroid's review of Jimmy Eat World - Clarity
"No hate or anything but how is an hour long album long? That's pretty standard."
On Brand New - The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me
"@johnxinareviews I understand it has loud emotional sections, but these feel sometimes forced and don't fully wrap up the album at all. I've listened to it twice more since this review and I still agree with what I said. This isn't to be taken as gospel it's my opinion and I just think it's the weakest by far of the three Brand New albums I have listened to so far."
