I actually enjoyed this much more than I was expecting to. I wasn’t crazy about windswept Adan or this albums singles so I went into this expecting more of the same. The albums really short though so I thought I might as well listen. What I got actually really surprised me. While it was similar to what I’ve already heard from her, I enjoyed it much more. The atmosphere created by this album is really really beautiful and I’m starting to understand much more why people like ... read more
Albums I need to listen to to finish the AOTY top 100 - #30
An album hasn’t made me feel this way in a while. I can’t even really pinpoint what this feeling is. Maybe it’s nostalgia from when I was getting into music and hearing my first albums. Maybe it’s the feeling of hearing a beloved album for the first time. Maybe it’s just a pure unbridled love for music. This album made me feel something that I really haven’t felt since I was new to music. First of ... read more
I don’t think it’s crazy to say that this is in the top 5 songs of the decade so far is it?

Why do I feel like Kurt is about to whip out a children’s book and start reading to me?😭🙏
This is an incredibly raw and well performed live album. There’s some obvious stand outs on here (the man who sold the world, where did you sleep last night, all apologies, etc) but I’d say this is pretty consistent overall. While I didn’t prefer a lot of these tracks to the studio versions I do think they all hold ... read more
Oh my fucking god this is easily the most beautiful song they’ve made in a while. Birthing is gonna feed families.

Did this mf just play a poem on a trumpet
This is easily some of the best jazz I’ve ever heard. I was beginning to think that I just didn’t really like jazz as a genre after I heard bitches brew but this is really something special. Despite the only words being spoken on this being the name of the album, this conveys such soulful and spiritual themes. The entire last song especially is some of the most creative usage of ... read more
I kinda felt like I didn’t give Drake a good enough chance with some sexy songs being the first album from him I’ve heard. So I decided I might as well listen to one of his higher rated albums and yea the gap in quality between this and some sexy songs is astronomical. Not only are the lyrics, while nothing crazy, 1000x better but the production is much more lively and way way more interesting. The highs here are also incredible. The two main ones that stand out are obviously Tuscan ... read more
This is easily a top three metal album for me. Instrumentally this is some of the hardest shit I’ve ever heard. The riffs on here are absolutely lethal with some really spacey moments on here. The vocals are absolutely unreal and easily some of the best to ever grace the genre. Conceptually this album is a cosmic odyssey tackling the end of the world from human activities. The album is not only a warning of what’s to come but also a beacon of hope that we will survive it. The album ... read more
I think I prefer this to last years ep but yea I definitely agree with the general sentiment that they’re long overdue for a studio album
I’ve said this before and I will say it again I am not religious but god bless Dolly Parton
Incredible story telling. Incredible beat. Incredible flows. Idk if you’ve picked it up by now but this song is incredible
