On their 26th record, King Gizzard takes on yet another genre and mostly makes it work, despite it feeling a bit half-baked.

Peggy's newest album is his most ambitious and instrumentally diverse yet, starting off by bursting through the door with bangers and ending with melancholy rap ballads.

In a year filled with releases from major pop artists, Charli XCX casually drops an instant classic with no fillers or low points, sounding unlike anyone else in a typically saturated genre. Collaborating with the crème de la crème of producers and showcasing her strongest writing to date, this album is poised to top many year-end lists and potentially be regarded as one of the best albums of the decade.

"Clancy" represents a partial return to form since "Trench," but it still feels somewhat scattered and inconsistent in quality.
