In my mind this album is beyond perfect, but it's brought down by Undoer and Domoto. I've been listening to this album for practically 3 years on repeat now and it's just such fun. Doomsday is coming. Also really happy that Getting Killed has shone a light not only on Geese but specifically this album (its ar superior hehe)

Haven't used this website in a hot minute, but "Can I Have You For Myself?" is a song I come back to so much and I had to say it somewhere, emotional masterpiece and currently my frontrunner for song of the year despite the rest of the album just not doing as much for me. C- CAN I HAVE YOU FOR MYSELF. Chills man, chills.

No, I don't like listening to every song on this album. However, Stephin Merritt is a genius and pulled off one of the most daunting and creative feat in his own way, talking about love. 69 songs is far from enough songs to cover all there is about love, that's exactly why new love songs have been released everyday for god knows how long. Yet this album does it in a way that I consider the best. 69 songs of pure writing perfection. Some of them are obvious in their beauty, for ... read more

Bro what is everyone on, why everyone hating on this. Sure it's not as fun as his previous installments, but this being melodic works so well for his aesthetic. This is my favorite Cudi project in a long time, even if I did enjoy MOTM III. I just feel like this has soul in it, again, not discrediting previous works, I just feel so much heart. It's nothing that has any wow factors, but it feels cohesive and well thought out, this shit really makes me intrigued in the show itself. Also the ... read more

Why he have a new producer tag, I like the old one better, even if it did show up on a track or two. Anyways, this record is very much a vibe, even if it doesn't feel like anything grandiose and might be a bit of a safe release. I don't remember where I heard the comparison but I do think of it as quite true, this record showcases everything I would want DJ Khaled to be. An ACTUAL PRODUCER, that makes fire ass instrumentals, bringing together a bunch of artists, yet it still feels like it's ... read more

Yes this is just what I needed before the end of the year. I feel like this album characterizes the word slay in every way possible. She smooth with words and her voice is just divine. Sure this thing might be horny as fuck on some tracks, but she got the confidence to pull it off. It'd be insulting to write-off the lyrics as horny because she accomplishes more than that, entailing not only freedom in creativity but freedom within herself. It's just amazing how soulful and gorgeous this project ... read more

What a fucking messsss dude. Guys got the voice of an angel and amazing production, yet he cannot write anything that isn't corny or straight up nonsensical. Like I'm genuinely mad with this album, it manages to be so fucking cool yet I want brakence to stop talking and just hum instead or something. It's also a bit funny that when the dude actually writes something worth my time, it's on some of the least interesting production (though still good). I really want to enjoy this more than I did ... read more

(WOO!) This album is gassssss, if I was a stoner this is the shit I'd be cranking up, KG just has their way of making any genre be some sort of psychedelic journey. Laminated Denim see the band toying a bit with some krautrock elements, which is a direction that doesn't really surprise me at this point as they are the gizzards. There's not much to say about this, it's only two tracks and they're pretty fucking good. I would've honestly wanted more of this because while it is long tracks, the ... read more

They weren't alvvays shoegaze right? (please let the pun slide). This record is one of those instances where I really appreciate what they're doing musically, and I think it does sound good, but it just doesn't really bring me anywhere. The vocals are consistently just really pretty and fit the aesthetic they're going for. It's the production that loses me a bit, it's kinda just a bunch of cool riffs, with all around good instrumentation, yet it doesn't really have personality. I feel like ... read more

Lol what the hell is this. I've never loved and hated an album so much at the same time. Matt Healy just says whatever the fuck he wants and sometimes it's hilarious, sometimes I want him to shut the fuck up. This also coincidentally has made me feel incredibly white, like some of the tracks on here are fun but I feel extremely guilty when listening to them. They have solid production all around and they really know how to make catchy synths. I'd say Matt Healy really is what determines whether ... read more

This album is scary, in the way that it's very long for an artist that I originally had very little interest for. Though this album isn't very new to me anymore as it's been in my rotation for a few months. On this record, Big Thief explores a large variety of sounds ranging from more indie folk cuts, to alt-country, to indie rock, and they absolutely nail it. On an album that's 20 tracks long and 80 minutes of length, there is just so little that doesn't appeal to me. It's easier to talk about ... read more

This record is so ethereal, yet it struggles with consistency. Before I say anything, the cover for this thing is really good, it just captures how I feel when this album reaches it's highs. Speaking of it's highs, the highs on this just take me to a comforting yet otherworldly atmosphere that I cannot help but love. Hatchie has a stellar voice, when she uses it accordingly that is, over some really entrancing production. Though this record falls flat on songs where lyrics get lazy, vocals are ... read more

Woahhh, this shit is SILKY SMOOTH. Smino proves his ability in the R&B scene just as much as in the hip hop scene. This record brings out the best of most of Smino's collaborators, for example, J. Cole with his verse and even singing, which I didn't know he could pull off so well or Ravyn Lenae's beautiful vocals on Settle Down, but these aren't the only two artists who shine as features. This isn't disregarding Smino in the slightest, because he also kills it here, with extremely creative ... read more

This is absolutely crazy, this shit just flows so well. For once Nas isn't on his own dick about Illmatic, with good confidence. This final settlement in the King's Disease series sees Nas and Hit-boy absolutely killing it! For the most part the production is great, just a couple inconsistencies here and there. As far as the rapping goes, Nas actually brings something to the table that feels very worth my time, as well as having some of his best flows in forever. It's just great to see a hip ... read more

The long awaited return from the R&B superstar SZA is quite a mixed bag for me. While this record has a lot of really good cuts, it's got a lot of filler. She still embraces her sound quite well and knows her way around a catchy tune. That just doesn't make the record as a whole something that I'll enjoy coming back to. Not to say that the filler songs are bad, they are just rather uninteresting, even so that lyrically I have trouble catching on to some of them just because they lose my ... read more

Before going into this I really expected something different, a lot more upbeat and poppy. While this record still was catchy, was written quite well, the production felt overly grimey and forced. It's quite in your face, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but there was something that I felt was missing throughout the record. While Kilo does serve bop after bop, I find myself liking tracks, but coming out of this record feeling unsatisfied. It just feels like the experience is not as good as ... read more

What a cool record, it's just very unique despite being in a genre where you think all the boundaries have been pushed. The duo manages to incorporate odd electronic elements in their mix of art/chamber pop, which to my surprise works out really well. In fact, the tame songs feel like the odd ones out which I feel isn't always the case. Another thing which is absolutely splendid about this is the freaking optimism. It's quite refreshing for an album to actually evoke like hope in the modern ... read more

Woah, this was a lot to take in. I always have a hard time pointing out what I like and don't like about records like these because they absolutely terrify me (in a good way?). The sheer emotion in Raygun Busch's voice is heart wrenching. This thing is actually depressing despite the riffs being killer and the screams take all the heart left in me. I'm at a loss for words because these albums just speak for themselves, they're so heavy. Listening to this while light headed might not have been ... read more

Holy mother of bloated. This record has some bangers, but it's so long that it's bound to have duds, and duds it has. Omnium Gatherum sees KGLW explore various sides of psychedelic music, we even got some gizz hip hop on this which is something that I didn't see coming but probably should've. I can't fully appreciate this as it's simply bloated with tracks that fail to interest me in any way. Nothing straight up bad though, gotta give it to them they are one of the most consistent bands out ... read more

Man Lupe has got to be one of my all time favorites rappers, and this record further establishes that position for me. With Lupe having fully produced this on Garage Band makes it so the production might not be as intense and the samples are minimal. That might be one of my favorite and least favorite parts of the record. As it's simplicity lets Lupe shine, and Lupe does indeed shine. His pen game is insane on this, as it's always been, tackling more about the inequalities of where he's from, ... read more
