Michael Jackson - Off the Wall
93

This album is off the wall!

Kevin Temmer - I've Had a Dream for Quite Some Time
89

A cute little comedy single about blowing up mars to mess with elon musk. I certainly wouldn't call this a masterpiece but I would never in a million years call it bad.

Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition
93

Atrocity Exhibition is an album exploring how poverty afflicts those living in impoverished neighborhoods, and how those intense psychological traumas will follow people even if they can "get out of the hood". Tracks such as Ain't it Funny, Golddust, and Really Doe best express the violence, drug abuse, and depression deeply entrenched in these communities while tracks like White Lines, Tell Me What I Don't Know, and Get Hi best express how these issues still deeply impact ... read more

The Diz - Will We Ever Feel The Light Again?
65

Not terrible for a first release of an artist. Generally disconnected and unthemed, and the first track is absolutely a snoozer, but there's a lot of passion and fun that clearly went into this project. I think we can expect bigger and better projects from this artist in the future.

Black Country, New Road - Ants From Up There
97

A stelar jazz rock album exploring love and loss with fantastic lyricism and masterful instrumentals. Every song is at the very least a 8, with most being 9s or 10s. One of the most cohesive and thematically consistent albums I've ever heard, it will surely be remembered for many years to come.

Labelle - Nightbirds
83

A solid soul album. The songs range from pretty good to totally amazing and, while "Lady Marmalade" deserves to be a hit single from the album, other tracks like "Nightbird" and "All Girl Band" deserve just as much love.

Three 6 Mafia - When the Smoke Clears: Sixty 6, Sixty 1
68

While some good songs feature on this track, such as "Sippin On Some Syrup" and "Just Like Us", the overall album was nothing special. There was definitely worse you could do, but Three 6 could definitely do better.

Capital Cities - In a Tidal Wave of Mystery
69

A collection of fun and indulgent songs, great summer album. Thoroughly enjoyable on a beach.

The Alan Parsons Project - Eye in the Sky
87

While the album's production hasn't aged the most gracefully, it's still a fantastic listen from start to finish. It's a true album's album, so skipping around is NOT recommended. There's far more to enjoy than the namesake hit single.

Broken Brass Ensemble - With a Vengeance
75

A solid street brass record from Broken Brass. It really captures that '80s action feel it was going for. It's only 30 minutes, but makes up for it in variety and energy.

House of Pain - Same as It Ever Was
76

You don't go to House of Pain for stellar lyricism, but this album established them as experts in wordplay. With some top tier production from DJ Muggs and an overall improvement in sound and structure, this album is far better than Fine Malt Lyrics, even if it never got that hit single.

House of Pain - House of Pain (Fine Malt Lyrics)
62

Most of the songs are middling, though none of them are outright bad. Other than "Shamrocks and Shenanigans" and "Jump Around", there isn't much reason to visit the entire album.

lvusm - Meow
80

A cute and replayable song with an interesting instrument integral to it's charm. I recommend listening to more "meowsynth" music.

C418 - Minecraft - Volume Alpha
95

95 on listen but 100 when playing, this album contains some of the best and most popular OST tracks of all time.

Supertramp - Breakfast in America
90

A fantastic rock album from the kate 70s and helped to shape the sound of the early 80s. This might be the closest to prog pop you're gonna get.

Fox Capture Plan - Discovery
82

A solid fusion pop album, with NEW ERA and Yakan Kouro being standout singles. The latter half seems a little bit thrown together, but it's all good music.
