Chappell Roan - The Giver
95

When I listened to this country pop single for the first time, I didn't expect Chappell Roan to absolutely NAIL it with great production, instrumentation, and an incredibly fun chorus

Chappell Roan - Good Luck, Babe!
85

While not a distinct track for Chappell Roan when compared to her other synthpop songs, it still is a very solid track with a really nice vocal performance

Sanguisugabogg - Rotted Entanglement
85

A death metal single that is unrelenting to say the least

Dying Wish - I'll Know You're Not Around
60

Honestly a little underwhelmed with this Dying Wish single. I think it’s still enjoyable, but for the band this song is pretty tame in terms of both performances and writing.

End It - Optical Delusions
65

Maybe it will work better in the context of the album, but I don’t think this single works that well as it ends too quickly before one can really get into it

Fit For A King - Witness The End
20

People thinking that this generic alt metal song belongs to the deathcore genre hurts me a little I can’t lie

Fit For A King - Begin The Sacrifice
15

If “contemporary Christian alt metal” was a thing, this is probably what it would sound like

Knocked Loose - Pop Culture
80

Knocked Loose's debut EP, "Pop Culture," features riffs and breakdowns that go harder than the entire discography of most bands. In my opinion, the EP could've used more variety, but the runtime of 12 minutes prevents that from being a major issue.

Daft Punk - Human After All
70

I respect Daft Punk for taking a different, more menacing direction on “Human After All” compared to their previous works. This album did have some great tracks and has its unique experimentation moments, but I feel that they didn’t really quite succeed at making most of the songs on the record sound dark and instead sound more oversimplified and unfinished. Especially when you compare this album to the duo’s previous masterpiece of an LP, “Discovery,” where ... read more

Oklou - choke enough
49

Back when “choke enough” was originally released, I was really excited to listen to it since I was in the mood for ambient pop music and it was a brand new release. Sadly, I didn’t really end up enjoying this album.

The main reason why it took me so long to write a review for this album is that it’s a pretty ‘nothing’ of an album and one of the most boring albums I've listened to this year. A lot of the vocal performances on here are forgettable. The ... read more

The Weeknd - São Paulo
95

Still one of my favorite tracks off of "Hurry Up Tomorrow." The production is stellar, the beat goes hard, and the Brazilian Funk influences on here bring out something fresh from The Weeknd.

Fit For A King - LONELY GOD
20

This just sounds like a Silent Planet song off of their “SUPERBLOOM” album, like an exact copy. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was some prank where Fit For A King got Silent Planet to record and perform this song for them.

Weatherday - Hornet Disaster
60

A lot of tracks off of "Hornet Disaster" to me followed a lot of similar formulas. If a portion of the songs were removed it would've caused less drag and added a lot more replay value to the album. With that being said, really emotional lyrics coupled with passionate vocal deliveries can be found on here, so diehard fans of emo and lo-fi indie music might get more enjoyment out of this album than me.

Orbit Culture - The Tales of War
40

I found this Orbit Culture single to be pretty lacking in both its melodic aspects and metal aspects

Fit For A King - No Tomorrow
25

The cookie-cutter vocals make me wanna join the two people on the single cover

Muse - Unravelling
30

Muse fans thinking the band having overproduced djent riffs in their song makes it unique and good lol

Playboi Carti - MUSIC
40

This album is all over the place in terms of quality, which if you take into account that the album is named “MUSIC,” kinda makes Playboi Carti an unintentional genius in how music in general has such a wide range of quality to it.

A trap album with a 30 song tracklist is challenging enough for ‘front to back’ album listening, but when some, a few, or most of the songs aren't consistently enjoyable, it makes it a slog to sit through the whole album.

Some songs on ... read more

Greyhaven - Burn a Miracle
85

This single really sounds like Greyhaven's different parts and components of the band work as effectively as I've heard them so far

Silent Planet - Wick
40

I swear they've released this exact same song before

Quadeca - Vanisher, Horizon Scraper
85

Quadeca showcases the massive size and scale in sound that an artist’s work can be on “Vanisher, Horizon Scraper.”

Even compared to “I Didn't Mean To Haunt You” the sound of this album is substantial, which makes sense when taken into account of the album's concept of Quadeca being a man sailing into the ocean driven by his desire for freedom and knowledge eventually becoming an unhealthy obsession that leads to his death. The production of the album is ... read more

On Dayseeker - Creature In The Black Night
"The instrumentals accompany the lyrics more properly on dark sun than this album. Like the instrumentals in Pale Moonlight are so dumb because it has lyrics about someone (potentially Rory) 'dancing with the devil' to where it's harming them, and it sounds like a radio rock song meant to motivate people. Like shouldn't the song sound sad or at least off putting?"
On Dayseeker - Creature In The Black Night
"@PoisonBow I haven't listened to dark sun in a while, I don't like either album but I think it is better than creature in the black night because the lyrics and song meanings have a bit more effort into them. Like with Parallel about his father passing away, or with Paper Hearts about Rory sharing that he has been so overwhelmed by the weight of the world that he has a suicidal thought about dying in a car crash"

"@tn3t3ta How can you hate me so much, yet know nothing about me? I’ve given a lot of metalcore albums high ratings. I recently gave the new dying wish album, a metalcore band, a rating definitely higher than a 3/10. There’s nothing wrong with disagreeing with me, but don’t spread misinformation."
On PRESIDENT - King of Terrors
"@RemisReviews I don’t think I’ve ever said in my life that pop vocals make something bad. For the genre comment, it is my believe that these bands are more closer to pop than metal. A lot of their songs are just pop tunes featuring metal breakdowns and basic small elements of other genres."

On HomeSession3's review of Slaughter to Prevail - GRIZZLY
"a score of 50 being a "awful score" to me doesn't make any sense cause you're ignoring half of the numbers of quality you could be using to score an album (49 - 0). If you thought this album was worse than a 5/10 "middle of the road score" than you should rate it lower."
