grentperez - Backflips in a Restaurant
87

In this debut album, Grant travels through an action packed-adventure filled with meeting a girl at the station, getting fuzzy feelings, and getting drunk with a girl at a bar. Very experimental throughout, but he's got some MAJOR hard hitters that will keep me playing them on repeat time and time again.

grentperez - Trail Mix Tape
84

Grant's EPs just keep getting better and better.

While this is short, it holds a special place in my heart with the catchy, high energy 'Ego,' and the heartfelt, reminiscent 'Wishful Thinking.' It's a good EP overall, it just seems so short in comparison to others. But hey, it's another collection of loverboy vibes to add on.

grentperez - Demo(s) About Love
79

Overall not a bad EP from Grant, yet it feels unfinished. Really love the themes here about love (as always), but it's a great starting point for his music. In my opinion, '(Only) About Love - Demo,' 'Confusing Girl (+ Demo),' and 'In My Heart - Demo' are the standouts for this EP.

Joey Valence & Brae - NO HANDS
88

JVB are a collective duo that have improved SO MUCH during the time that I've listened to them, and this album has NOT disappointed. For new listeners, it's a welcoming album that'll get you hooked and waiting for more JVB records. For OG's, it's definitely a great refresher on what our favorite duo can do.
As I continued to go through the album for the first time, I noticed the references, the slick beats and the silly punchlines, as well as JV's memorable voicing on each of these songs. These ... read more

INOHA - ALOHA INOHA
87

'ALOHA INOHA' is a great debut album, and although somewhat messy and a little 'silly' at times, this shows the true colors of what the INOHA band is capable of. The surf-rock feel is consistent through the album, and showcases the best of all members, especially in tracks such as 'Saturday Nights,' the fan-favorited 'Seventh Heaven,' and 'GESHUOU.'
Really the only improvement, in my opinion, would be a smoother flow from song to song, but I digress. Cheers, INOHA.

grentperez - Ego
98

By far the catchiest out of all of his songs, I'm a HUGE fan of this. It displays Grant's great backing vocals with a strong lead, as well as showing how diverse his records can truly be. He went from Clementine to this, and I'm hooked.

grentperez - Christmas Starts Tonight
89

This song FEELS like Christmas, the tones for it are just perfect for what it's trying to bring to the Christmas Tree. Overall a great song in general.

grentperez - Op Shop Lover
88

I mean what can I say? The song is catchy, it flows great with Cordiale's vocals; overall a great single by Grant!

grentperez - Cherry Wine
100

Do I even have to say anything about this?
This is the song that has single-handedly put Grant on the map, and for great reason.
The blend of soft guitar (the solo is GREAT), with the light taps of the hi-hats for the duration of the song, as well as Grant's raw voice creates this masterpiece, which in my opinion is just perfect.

twenty one pilots - Clancy
88

Twenty One Pilots.
To end a decade-long era through this medium is one of the best highlights of their works, especially from a rebound off of SAI.
Their singles were a tone-setter, going from Overcompensate's savvy drum beat to the punk rock drive of Next Semester, and ending with Backslide's Vessel-y and Trench-y hybrid (at least IMO); this is definitely one of their most memorable records put out to date.

Ratings:

Overcompensate: 94
Next Semester: 100
Backslide: 82
