Yeah... not that good of a beginning.
Forgot to rate this one. First Dino Merlin's album under his former band Merlin. It really feels like he's trying out random shit, and you can clearly see the influences he had when it comes to music, but doesnt work in some moments.
The production is solid, has some hits and misses, nothing really unique about it. I only got something out of 2 songs, and the rest i forgot right after listening to it. Dino's vocals are also all over the place.

Fine enough.
I never heard of this one before, so i gave it a try by the recommendation from my friend. This sounds like if Pink Floyd was drunk out of their mind and from the Balkans.
The instrumentals are the best part of this album. The guitar riffs especially feel really powerful on songs like Istina Mašina. The vocals kinda drag this down a bit, but it isnt bad still.
Best track: Istina Mašina
Worst track: Pjesma no.3
Really nice.
This Montain Goats album really touches on some sensitive subjects, and i really respect it for that. The themes are explored really well, and the lyrics work well on this project.
The instrumentals... feel a bit empty sometimes, but they still have some good elements. I only wish that there was some kind of vareity. The vocals are also really good.
Best track: either This Year or You and Your Memory
Worst track: Pale Green Things
(Re-reviewing my older reviews)
Fucking incredible.
In my eyes, The Life of Pablo will always be the most underappreciated album by Kanye, at least on this site. I mean, people really like TLOP, but i adore this. Its so messy in so many good ways, its actually insane.
The production somehow mixes the best of MBDTF and Yeezus, having songs that feel either grand or experimental and wacky. Even the cover makes sense with the themes of the album. Also, Saint Pablo is THE best thing tha Kanye ... read more
So, this is AOTYs second coming of Christ?
Ive seen so many people praise this album, how its the best thing ever made, that is this untouchable thing that cannot be replicated. I delayed listening to this album for quite a bit, but today i finally listened to it.
I adore this album in some ways, i can see a small glimpse and elements that can make this a 10, but at the same time its filled with so many flaws, some of them that i just cant overlook. Maybe a bit overdramatic, because its ... read more
Holy shit, is he consistent.
Bajaga's third album is probably his least talked about record out of the first 4 classics. Its such a fun listen, the best part being the run from Gde Stiže Moje Sećanje to Samo Nam Je Ljubav Potrebna.
The instrumentals are really good on here. There are of course some wacky moments like on almost every album of his, like Bam, Bam, Bam. The vocals are as recognizable as ever.
Best track: Samo Nam Je Ljubav Potrebna
Worst track: Kao, Ne Zna Da Je Gotivim
Now, THIS is peak Queen.
Arguably their best record, A Night At The Opera is everything i wanted to hear when it comes to Queen. Just grand, sometimes even low-key moments on an album.
The instrumentals are stellar, they really fit the aesthetic of an opera really well. The guitars are also incredible. Freddie's voice is at its best on here, especially on Bohemian Rhapsody.
Best track: either Bohemian Rhapsody, Love Of My Life or '39
Worst track: God Save The Queen
This song can really hit hard. I think this is an example of a song that means a lot more when you look at the man himself. Incredible.
Great, but not perfect like everybody says it is.
I didnt know much when i went into this album, and was suprised that this is ranked 40# album of ALL TIME on here. This record is really great, but something is kinda missing on here, and i dont know what.
The production is incredible, especially on Part 5 which has these breath-taking guitars. The thing that annoys me however is the constant sounds of shitting on Part 3 and some parts of Part 2.
Best track: Part 5
Worst track: Part 3
The last track made me go zzzzz...
The debut album of Neutral Milk Hotel is nice. Now, i am a really big fan of In The Aeroplane Over The Sea, and i never really listened to anything pass that until now.
The production is nice, although the noisy echoes effect on the guitars get a bit overused. ITAOTS did it 10x better because they used that effect sparingly. The vocals are also really good.
Best track: either Where You'll Find Me Now or Naomi
Worst track: The last track
This shit is boring and ASS.
Ken Carson tries to be Carti way too much on his second album. This is SO repetitive, its sickening. Not even going to mention the number of tracks, which is unnecessary.
The production is too messy, and also a bit silly at times. The fart-sounding bass just kinda sucks. Ken's vocals are drenched in these vocal effects that dont work. There are like 2 alright tracks, but most are forgettable or just bad.
Best track: maybe MDMA
Worst track: Money Hunt
Really good comeback.
I actually never listened to a full Schoolboy Q record until now. It kinds feels messy at times, but it somehow works. It does get a bit repetitive at the second half, but it ends just in time.
The production is probably the best part of this album. Whether its a soul sample or a bass-focused track, it all really works. I like Q's vocals and his lyrics too.
Best track: either Blueslides or Yeern 101
Worst track: Time killers
Idk why but this cover art pisses me off.
The third studio album from Queen is solid. Could be better, but still has its charm. There are random short tracks scattered all across the tracklist, some kinda make sense and flow well, and the others feel pointless.
The instrumentals are nice, the guitars, like always, being the stand out on here. The low key moments on the record are solid enough too. Freddie's voice has moments, but like the previous album, its just solid.
Best track: either ... read more
(Re-reviewing an album because i got lazy today)
This is probably Kanye's most influential album that he ever dropped. It really brought 808s back on the mainstream after that. Even ignoring the influence, its still an incredible listen.
The production is great, i think that all the "beeps and boops" sound incredible and i love the drums on Love Lockdown. The lyrics, of course, reflect Kanye's mental state at the time, mixed with rough vocals that still sound good.
Best track: ... read more
The latest release from MGMT is really entertaining. The intro perfectly sets up the mood for the music youre about to hear. The only song that sticks out like a sore thumb and kinda doesnt fit the aesthetic is Dancing in Babylon.
The production is really nice, i especially love the synths on some tracks. Its a shame that there are only 2 songs that shocked me about how great they are, (those being Mother Nature and Bubblegum Dog) but the rest kinda gets repetitive imo.
Best track: Bubblegum ... read more
Really fun listen.
SZA's debut album is as good as everybody says it is. She really has a unique voice, it sometimes reminds me of The Weeknd. The sound gets a bit stale towards the end, which kinda annoys me.
The production really sounds lush, and i love the guitars on Supermodel. The R&B aesthetic really works with SZA's voice. The vocals are nice, but they can feel a bit screechy at times.
Best track: either Supermodel or The Weekend
Worst track: Pretty Little Birds
Bland yet again!
Cudi comes back yet again with another mediocrity of a project. This is like a b-side to the first Insano, and its just as boring as the first one. I went through this whole album expressionless, not even a smile or a sound of annoyance, i just felt nothing.
The production, like on the first one, is lukewarm. The only way to differentiate this side to the first is when you hear the louder bass on some of the songs. The vocals are also nothing special, some of them are just ... read more
I never really listen to that much Schoolboy Q, but god damn. Really reminds me of Mr Morale. The piano and the sample are also really great.
Its nice enough.
The latest record from Death Grips is... alright. Not their best, but it still has good moments. This one isnt as loud and abrasive as their previous works, and it kinda makes it feel slightly empty at times.
The production has its moments, but it has some unnecessary parts like the short songs that are under 2 minutes. The vocals are at least still as raw as ever.
Best track: Black Paint
Worst track: Shitshow
(Re-reviewing my older reviews because i got lazy today)
Probably Kanye's most popular album, and for a good reason. The only reason it isnt rated higher is because i still have a gripe about Drunk and Hot Girls.
The production is really fun, and really revolutionary for the time, using autotune regularly. I even like the more Electropop influences. Kanye's rapping is also really fun on this one.
Best track: either Good Life or I Wonder
Worst track: Drunk and Hot Girls
