Metallica - Master of Puppets
100

Metallica’s 1986 record “Master of Puppets” is a thrash metal record often regarded as one of the best and most important LPs in the genre. It would be an understatement to say that this album is anything less than magnificent, as it boasts one of the greatest track selections in the history of music.
This album, while not a concept album, still revolves around a single theme, which permeates each song, manipulation. This theme is explored in a variety of different ways, like ... read more

JPEGMAFIA - EXPERIMENTAL RAP
75

An album that lives up to its name.

Admittedly, I am neither a fan nor an expert in this kind of music, and I can’t really say how “experimental” or innovative this record is, but as someone who had never listened to any of Peggy’s albums, I can say that this was a pretty cool introduction. My only knowledge of Peggy’s music was based on his feature on "VENGEANCE", and this record solidified what I already thought of him. That is to say, I think he has ... read more

Gojira - From Mars to Sirius
93

Gojira’s 2005 album “From Mars to Sirius” is a fantastic blend of progressive and brutally heavy moments.

The guitar tone and drums complement each other extremely well, creating a wall of sound that makes every song hit like a truck, yet the writing is as sharp as can be, with many elements of progressive metal and rock, complementing the percussive, almost visceral, simplicity of the riffs wonderfully. One technique I feel is used particularly well is the pick scrape, ... read more

The Scythe - Strictly 4 The Scythe
75

Overall a solid enough album.

"Strictly 4 The Scythe" feels like a more hype project meant to not be analyzed too closely as opposed to Denzel's more critically acclaimed albums.
The production on this LP is clean, albeit somewhat derivative and slightly forgettable, and the flows, especially Zel’s, are mostly solid, but I feel like the writing could be a bit sharper as this does feel like a far cry from Denzel’s best, especially from “Ta13oo” and ... read more

Architects - Holy Hell
100

Architects’ 2018 release “Holy Hell” is the finest work to come out of the British band’s catalog and of the genre of post metalcore.
This album, written and published soon after the tragic and premature passing of their guitar and keyboard player Tom Searle in 2016, is the perfect encapsulation of grief.
This record showcases what it means to grieve for a lost one and what it feels like to try to move on despite your suffering. In some capacity, every track on this LP ... read more
