underscores’ most accessible album to date.
U sees her going full electropop, which I personally think plays to her strengths of writing catchy hooks, emotional lyrics executed in playful ways, and hard hitting, dynamic production work. It’s a really fun album that took my mind off how grim the world can be, especially now.
A sad song about someone being unable to forget a past love with a vocal performance that really sells it from venturing
Some of the best black metal vocals and guitar riffs I've heard from Hellripper so far
While not bad, I didn’t really care for this Boundaries single.
I don’t think Drew Fulk's production fits well with the band’s instrumentals as it sounds overly muddled to where I can’t pick out each instrument in half of the breakdowns on here. I also don't think the band are writing at their highest capacity on here. Some moments on here are cool like with the syncopated rhythms in the guitar against a breakdown, but most of the breakdowns I found to be ... read more
The ♡ EP sees Jane Remover taking a more laid back, poppier approach, almost akin to their Frailty album, but with a stronger execution in terms of the songwriting and production. As a result, this project is filled with satisfying vocal performances and catchy compositional moments that easily stuck in my head.
Reminds me a lot of Stay Blessed off of STRUGGLER but it doesn’t come across as being ‘copied and pasted’ from that song and more as a different rendition of it
I don’t know how I didn’t love this song the first time I heard it cause this goes very hard, both instrumentally and lyrically
The instrumental groove on this song is great and the chorus manages to fit in really nicely with it
To the shock of no one, featuring Kevin Rheault on a song by a folk band would make them sound more like Dropkick Murphys
Suicide Euphoria by Pissgrave is an absolutely gruesome and filthy death metal album that is not for everyone. I was hesitant going into this album since I don't usually enjoy this extreme and gory execution of death metal. However, I found that there were a lot of great performances and entertaining riffs that stuck out and kept me coming back.
While not bad, Join Us In Creating Excellence is a step down in quality for the band Soulkeeper particularly in creativity and cohesion from their debut album Holy Design. If they continue in this direction with an LP, I could see myself not enjoying it.
A great single from Jessie Ware that has a lot of what I liked from her last album That! Feels Good! featured on it
A pretty anti-climatic single from twenty one pilots that I was underwhelmed by
Drain deliver a pretty fun hardcore punk album with enough variety to prevent it from being run the mill for the genre with ...IS YOUR FRIEND

"@Blackmetalhead2 Mostly negative. Some nu metal albums in the 90s and 2000s are great. For a more recent pick, check out Gridiron, you might like them."

"@CrypticTriscuit what do you like the most about it? Does it have any ideas or elements that you think I could be missing?"
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"
On SilverSoul24's review of Daft Punk - Discovery
"Amazing review. Congratulations on 1500 followers"
On Dayseeker - Creature In The Black Night
"@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."
